Peptide Glyco Cleanser DermaQuest

Peptide Glyco Cleanser

There are emulsions that simply wash the day off your face — and those that turn daily cleansing into a small skincare treatment. Peptide Glyco Cleanser belongs to the latter. It is an anti-aging cleansing emulsion from the Peptide Vitality line of the Californian cosmeceutical brand DermaQuest, which combines thorough, deep cleansing with gentle exfoliating action of acids — without the risk of drying or irritating the skin.

The creamy, rich consistency, packed with alpha hydroxy acids and plant extracts, spreads smoothly and works on the skin for a few minutes before you rinse it off with water. It effectively removes impurities and excess sebum while also acting keratolytically — without the tightening and roughness that usually accompanies strongly cleansing gels.

As a result, the skin is not only clean and free from excess sebum but also smoother, more radiant, and better prepared for the next steps in skincare. This emulsion is for those who want the very first gesture of their morning or evening ritual to genuinely work on the condition of their skin.

Cleansing that cares

The secret of this emulsion lies in the combination of alpha hydroxy acids with peptides. Glycolic and lactic acids accelerate the process of exfoliating dead skin cells and even out its surface, allowing the skin to regain smoothness and radiance, while the complexion becomes more uniform. This same action also improves the absorption of subsequent cosmetics — serums or creams applied after cleansing penetrate more effectively.

At the same time, 5% biomimetic peptides prevent and help reverse the signs of skin aging — wrinkles, lines, grooves, and uneven skin tone. Regular use visibly smooths fine lines and improves skin tone, while the acid-rich formula simultaneously reduces the formation of imperfections without drying out the skin. This is why regular face washing becomes the first daily step in anti-aging skincare.

The product is also frequently used to prepare the skin for professional treatments with chemical peels — the exfoliated, even surface of the skin allows active substances to work more evenly and effectively. As a result, Peptide Glyco Cleanser integrates well with the subsequent ritual: after it, the skin absorbs serums and creams as it should.

What works in the formula

How to use

• Apply the emulsion to the face and gently massage it in.
• Leave the product on for 2–3 minutes to allow the acids to work.
• Rinse with water or with damp cotton pads, avoiding contact with the eyes.
• For dry and dehydrated skin: first cleanse with Universal Cleansing Oil, then wash with Peptide Glyco Cleanser.

Skin type and indications

The emulsion is suitable for dry, oily, and combination skin — both towards dryness and oiliness. It is a good choice if you struggle with discoloration and uneven skin tone, acne, and imperfections, or loss of radiance. Thanks to the gentle yet consistent action of the acids, it meets these needs without compromising between effectiveness and skin comfort. The formula can also be used by women during lactation.
