The Hyaluronic Booster Syn®-Hycan: Introducing We Love Eyes Anti-Aging Eye Cream

WHY WE LOVE EYES USES Syn®-Hycan ACTIVE FOR EYE CREAM FORMULATION AND WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF Syn®-Hycan FOR EYELID SKIN?
Hyaluronic Acid (HA) fillers are all the rage. Many of my patients love the idea of HA fillers for the eye area, but are also worried about getting that unwanted, mask-like appearance and long term effects of prolonged use. Not the same, SYN®-HYCAN is an alternative, non-invasive way to utilize HYALURONIC ACID for a firmer looking eye under eye.
You can find SYN®-HYCAN in my eye cream formulation, SHRUBTOX®️ Active Hyaluronic Eye Glass®️.

What Is SYN®-HYCAN?
Syn®-Hycan is a patented cosmetic peptide, proven to boost the skin’s own renewal of hyaluronic acid, resulting in a visible remodeling effect and firmer, more moisturized skin. It can significantly improves eyelid skin firmness, suppleness, smoothness, and moisture.
Key Benefits of SYN®-HYCAN – The Hyaluronic Acid Booster
SYN®-HYCAN offers an effective solution for the two most desired benefits of hyaluronic acid – moisture and skin volume enhancement.
- Provides eyelid skin volume and firming enhancement
- Benefits on under eye area
- Fuller, firmer eyelid skin is delivered in weeks
- Eyelid skin is noticeably more supple, smooth, and moisturized
SYN®-HYCAN Ingredient Breakdown
When you look at the ingredients list of SHRUBTOX®, we list Syn®-Hycan (the brand name) by its ingredients according to INCI standards. Find them listed as the trio: Glycerin, Water, Tetradecyl Aminobutyroylvalylamino- butyric
Glycerin is a humectant, a type of moisturizing agent that pulls water into the outer layer of your eyelid skin from deeper levels and the air.
Water is often given a bad wrap in cosmetics. It's a myth that water is just there to 'water down' the ingredients that matter. Not true! Water is crucial as a solvent and plays a vital role in hydrating the eyelid skin and delivering keys ingredients.
Tetradecyl Aminobutyroylvalylaminobutyric is a tripeptide used for its anti-aging and anti-wrinkle properties. It's known to stimulate hyaluronic acid production, which helps improve skin hydration, firmness, and elasticity.
Mode of Action
Proteins are involved in many processes of the anti-aging therapies for skincare. Focusing in, activation of TGF-beta protein is required for the synthesis of several highly relevant skin molecules such as COLLAGEN and GLYCOSAMINOGLYCANS like HA (hyaluronic acid).
SYN®-HYCAN is a synthetic, patented tripeptide that mimics TGF-beta activation for increased HA synthesis of hyaluronan and stimulates the production of lumican and decorin, two important proteoglycans that are primarily responsible for maintaining a well-structured collagen matrix in the skin. Whew! That was a mouthful. Okay, now shorter:
- Stimulates collagen production: Helps the body produce more collagen, the structural protein that keeps skin firm.
- Reduces wrinkles and fine lines: Fills in creases for a smoother texture.
- Improves skin elasticity: Boosts skin’s ability to stretch and rebound.
- Enhances hydration: Supports moisture retention for a plump appearance.
- May improve stretch marks: Some studies suggest benefits for skin areas affected by rapid stretching.
