Boticário Botik Peptídeos Pró-Elastina Facial Serum – Concentrated Peptide Care for Adult Skin – 1.01 fl oz (30 ml)
- Adds a light, fluid skincare step over the whole face, including the eye area.
- Helps skin feel hydrated and comfortable after application.
- Leaves the surface of the skin looking smooth and even.
- Absorbs quickly, so it sits easily under moisturizer, sunscreen and makeup.
- Fits a daily routine, in the morning, at night, or both.
Made for adult skin, 18 years and over, as recommended on the label, and for anyone who prefers a very light, liquid serum over a rich cream. It suits people building a simple day or night routine who want a step that disappears fast and does not get in the way of sunscreen or makeup. It is not for children, it should not be applied to irritated or broken skin, and it is not a fragrance-free option, since Parfum is listed in the INCI, so anyone who reacts to fragrance should patch test first or choose a different product.

- Fluid, almost water-light texture that spreads easily and absorbs with no oily or sticky film.
- Key ingredients: Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12, Glycerin, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract, Salix Alpina (Alpine Willow) Leaf/Stem Extract and Algae (Coenochloris Signiensis) Extract.

On clean, dry skin, apply 3 to 4 drops over the whole face, including the eye area, and spread gently with your fingertips, avoiding direct contact with the eyes themselves. Let it absorb for a few seconds, then follow with your usual moisturizer. Use it daily, in the morning, at night, or both, and during the day always finish with sunscreen, as the label instructs.
- It comes in an amber glass bottle with a glass dropper; keep it tightly closed, away from light and excessive heat, and out of reach of children.
- The label recommends it for adult skin, 18 years and over, and warns against applying it to irritated or broken skin.
- Particles inherent to the composition may appear without affecting quality or safety; if facial care products cause a feeling of discomfort, use it on alternate days and stop if the discomfort persists.
The formula is built on a water and glycerin base, thickened only lightly with Acacia Senegal Gum, Xanthan Gum and Hydrolyzed Rhizobian Gum, which is why it pours as drops instead of a cream and why it feels smooth rather than heavy as it dries down. Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12 sits alongside the grape seed, alpine willow and algae extracts in the low-percentage part of the list, while Phenoxyethanol, Hydroxyacetophenone, 1,2-Hexanediol and Potassium Sorbate keep the water phase stable and Citric Acid and Triethanolamine hold the pH in range. In a routine, it is the fluid step between cleansing and your moisturiser: it absorbs fast enough to leave room for the eye cream from the same line, then a moisturiser, and sunscreen during the day.

Learn moreBoticário Botik Peptídeos Pró-Elastina Facial Serum, 1.01 fl oz (30 ml) is a fluid facial serum from Botik, the dermocosmetics line of O Boticário, one of Brazil's best-loved beauty houses. It arrives in an amber glass bottle with a glass dropper, so you can measure the same few drops every single time.
The texture is liquid and light, almost water-like. It spreads easily over the face and absorbs quickly, leaving skin feeling comfortable and looking smooth and even, without a heavy, sticky or greasy film. Because it sinks in fast, it layers easily under the rest of your routine.
Formulated and made in Brazil for adult skin (18 years and over), it fits into both a morning and an evening routine and ships worldwide from MKPBR.
Key Features:
- Fluid, Fast-Absorbing Texture: a light liquid serum that spreads easily across the face and sinks in quickly, leaving no oily or heavy after-feel.
- Peptide Formula: made with Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12, the peptide that gives the Peptídeos Pró-Elastina line its name.
- Botanical and Marine Extracts: the formula also includes Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract, Salix Alpina (Alpine Willow) Leaf/Stem Extract and Algae (Coenochloris Signiensis) Extract.
- Comfortable, Hydrated Feel: Glycerin and Hydrolyzed Rhizobian Gum leave skin feeling soft and cushioned to the touch.
- Morning and Night: designed to be used daily, in your day routine, your night routine, or both.
- Layers Well: absorbs fast, so you can follow with your usual moisturizer, sunscreen and makeup.
- Brazilian and Cruelty-Free: made in Brazil by O Boticário, a cruelty-free certified beauty house, and recommended on the label for adult skin (18+).
How To Use
- Start with clean, dry skin.
- Apply 3 to 4 drops over the whole face, including the eye area, avoiding direct contact with the eyes themselves.
- Spread gently with your fingertips and let it absorb for a few seconds.
- Follow with your usual moisturizer.
- Use daily. During the day, always finish with sunscreen, as instructed on the label.
Expert Tip: because the texture is so light and disappears quickly, it works well as a base step before makeup. If you also use the Botik Peptídeos Pró-Elastina Eye Cream, apply this serum first and let it settle, then follow with the eye cream around the eye contour.
Ingredients (Highlights)
- Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12: the lipid-linked peptide that gives this Botik line its name and appears near the end of the ingredient list, in the low-percentage active range.

- Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Extract: a plant extract from grape seeds, valued in skincare formulas for its naturally polyphenol-rich profile.
- Salix Alpina (Alpine Willow) Leaf/Stem Extract: a botanical extract from alpine willow, one of the signature plant ingredients of this formula.
- Algae (Coenochloris Signiensis) Extract: a marine-derived extract that adds to the light, fluid feel of the serum.

FAQ
What does this serum actually feel like on the skin?
It is a fluid, liquid serum rather than a thick gel or cream. Three to four drops are enough for the whole face, it spreads without dragging, and it absorbs in seconds, leaving skin feeling smooth and comfortable rather than tacky.
Should I use it in the morning or at night?
Either, or both. The label recommends daily use and the product is made for both day and night routines. If you use it in the morning, finish your routine with sunscreen, as the label instructs.
Can I apply it around my eyes?
Yes. The application advice on the label is to apply 3 to 4 drops over the whole face, including the eye area. Avoid getting it directly in the eyes, and if that happens, rinse with plenty of water.
Does it contain fragrance?
Yes. Parfum (Fragrance) is listed in the INCI, so this is not a fragrance-free formula. If you are sensitive to fragrance, patch test on a small area first before applying it to the whole face.
How is this different from the Botik Peptídeos Pró-Elastina Eye Cream?
They are two different formats from the same line. This one is a 30 ml fluid serum in a dropper bottle for the whole face; the eye cream is a 15 g cream in a tube with a metal applicator tip, made specifically for the eye contour. Many people use the serum first and the eye cream after.
