Product details

A dropper bottle of APLB Collagen EGF Peptide Ampoule Serum on a white table against a lavender wall, beside centella leaves

Bounce + firm

Hydrolyzed collagen, an EGF peptide and centella in a water-light ampoule, for elastic, lifted-looking skin.

APLB’s Collagen Pept Cen complex brings 2,000 ppm of hydrolyzed collagen, an EGF peptide and centella extract together for skin that is losing its bounce. It recharges moisture the moment it goes on, with squalane and beta-glucan, and stays mild, fragrance-free and weakly acidic for sensitive skin.
