How Snap-8 Works
Snap-8 (Acetyl Octapeptide-3) is a synthetic peptide that mimics SNARE proteins without neurotoxicity. It inhibits the formation of the SNARE complex, reducing the muscle contractions that cause dynamic wrinkles — particularly around the forehead and eyes. Unlike botulinum toxin, this mechanism is completely reversible, safer, and non-invasive.
Buzz Button: Nature's Muscle Relaxant
Spilanthes Acmella (Acmella Oleracea), commonly known as the "Buzz Button" or "toothache plant," contains spilanthol — a natural alkylamide compound with clinically-documented muscle-relaxing properties. When applied topically, spilanthol acts on subcutaneous muscle contractions, smoothing expression lines through a completely natural botanical mechanism.
Studies demonstrate visible wrinkle depth reduction comparable to synthetic peptides, with the added benefit of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties inherent in the botanical extract.
Clinical Evidence
Multiple peer-reviewed studies demonstrate:
- 17–30% reduction in wrinkle depth after 4–8 weeks of consistent use
- Improved skin elasticity, firmness, and overall texture
- Spilanthol mechanism verified for subcutaneous muscle relaxation
- Snap-8 SNARE complex inhibition confirmed in vitro without systemic absorption
- Excellent safety profile with minimal irritation risk
Copper Peptides: Collagen Engine
GHK-Cu: The gold-standard copper peptide complex. Stimulates collagen synthesis, promotes wound healing, and improves skin density. Up to 300% collagen stimulation documented in studies.
AHK-Cu: Next-generation copper peptide analog with 40–50% greater collagen stimulation than GHK-Cu. Faster cellular uptake and superior skin penetration for accelerated results.
The Multi-Peptide Advantage
Our Buzz Button Anti-Aging Serum combines the natural muscle-relaxing power of 2% Buzz Button extract with a professional multi-peptide base. The peptide-rich foundation delivers hydration, barrier repair, and cellular regeneration while the Buzz Button extract targets expression lines — a synergistic dual-mechanism approach that outperforms single-ingredient formulas.
