    Perricone MD Relaunches the Neuropeptide Collection, Spotlighting Two Targeted Serums for Visible Lifting and Deep Wrinkle Reduction

    Perricone MD today announces the relaunch of its Neuropeptide Collection, marking a new era of intelligent skincare engineered to visibly reduce the most advanced signs of aging. With nearly 30 years of research, clinically proven results, and a holistic philosophy rooted in beauty from the inside-out and outside-in, the reimagined collection delivers skincare with experience through formulas created to support skin shaped by time and expression.

    At the core of the collection is Perricone MD’s long-standing expertise in neuropeptide science, an approach pioneered by founder Dr. Nicholas Perricone, one of the first to use neuropeptides in topical skincare for their high-performing benefits. These powerful, protein-like building blocks help unite surface cells and visibly reduce wrinkle depth. Formulated with the brand’s most advanced neuropeptide technology and next-generation biotech ingredients, including biomimetic growth factor peptides, this targeted collection improves elasticity, lift, and contour in areas prone to sagging or creasing. Together, these precision-driven actives deliver visible results that honor both the skin and the story it tells.

    The Neuropeptide Deep Crease Serum is designed for areas most prone to etched-in, repetitive movement, addressing frown lines, smile lines, nasolabial folds, and creases around the eyes, lips, and forehead. It works to smooth the appearance of deep-set wrinkles, improve surface uniformity, and reinforce the skin’s look of density and structural resilience, particularly in high-movement zones. Plant Stem Cells, derived from a rare Swiss apple, work alongside the peptides to further promote thickness and support overall smoothness and resiliency.

    The Neuropeptide Eyelid Lift Serum is an ultra-lightweight, fast-absorbing formula created for one of the most delicate and expressive areas of the face: the upper eyelid. It visibly smooths eyelid creases, crepiness, and uneven texture, while reducing the look of drooping or sagging lids. Over time, the eye area appears lifted, defined, and more awake. In addition to the core peptide technology, the serum features Perricone MD’s patented Acyl-Glutathione, which helps to replenish fragile skin, reduce the look of creases, and reveal a smoother, more youthful appearance.

    “The reimagined Neuropeptide Collection represents what Perricone MD has always stood for, skincare guided by experience, science, and results,” said Lance Patterson, Global President of Perricone MD. “With decades of research behind our neuropeptide technology, this relaunch marks a new era of intelligent skincare designed to support skin as it evolves. These formulas are created to visibly lift, smooth, and define, addressing the realities of mature skin with precision, respect, and proven expertise.”

    The Neuropeptide Deep Crease Serum (1 US fl. oz. / $189) and Neuropeptide Eyelid Lift Serum (0.5 US fl. oz. / $129) are now available for purchase on PerriconeMD.com and select retail partners. Both products are suitable for all skin types.

Dr. Perricone’s seminal work challenged the prevailing norms of the skincare industry with its visionary approach to aging and introduction to the advantages of a healthy lifestyle.

    Perricone MD is driven by the pursuit of fearless innovation and a stubbornly uncompromising spirit of excellence.

    Smoosh: The Zero-Waste Grooming Brand

    Smoosh launched in January 2024 to reimagine how we wash with a soap-embedded body tool engineered to provide an endless lather and full body exfoliation single handedly. Recognized by SHAPE Skin Awards for Best in Body Innovation, Smoosh hopes to reduce the 400 million plastic loofahs and 1 billion plastic body wash bottles that are disposed of yearly.

    Smoosh is engineered so the bar soap secures within the exfoliation tool an endless lather achieved single handedly. This design minimizes soap waste, extends the longevity of your soap bar, and is an eco-friendly swap to disposable plastic body wash bottles.

    With Urban Outfitter’s core shopper being Gen Z, the addition of sustainably minded companies like Smoosh is the perfect fit. Generation Z is proactively making changes in lifestyle and shopping habits to minimize eco-impact. A recent study shows 62% of Gen Z prefer to buy from sustainable brands and 73% are prepared to pay higher prices for ethically sourced and manufactured products [First Insight].

    “We’re thrilled to bring Smoosh to Urban Outfitters and share our zero-waste products with a wider audience. This partnership not only puts sustainable choices on the shelves but also empowers consumers to make a positive impact with every shower.” — Adam Simone, co-founder and innovative mind behind Smoosh.

    Smoosh launched their Sage Body Scrubber ($29) and best-selling Cedarwood-Bergamot Smoosh Soap 2-pack ($12) in 19 Urban Outfitters storefronts located in the nation’s top college towns across the country. To experience the full line of Smoosh soaps, visit UrbanOutfitters.com now. For more information about Smoosh and to stay up to date with the latest brand announcements, please visit getsmoosh.com.
