About the EPII HPT6 Ultra Cream 5% (50ml)
If you've been waiting for a firming cream that takes its actives seriously, this is the one. epii's HPT6 Ultra Cream 5% is built around Hydroxypropyl Tetrahydropyrantriol (HPT) at a disclosed, meaningful 5% concentration: a level that reflects a genuine commitment to performance rather than a token label mention. Developed as part of epii's EP02: Gentle Longevity episode, this cream is formulated to address the visible signs of skin ageing, helping skin appear firmer, smoother and more resilient over time.
Where this formula distinguishes itself is in how thoughtfully the supporting cast is chosen. Matrixyl Synthe'6 at 2% is a well-regarded peptide complex known for its ability to visibly improve the appearance of skin firmness and fine lines. It works alongside the HPT to give the formula a layered approach to visible ageing care, targeting how skin looks and feels from multiple angles.
The formula is further supported by Ectoin at 1.5%, a resilience-boosting amino acid derivative that helps protect skin against environmental stress, and Melatonin at 1%, an antioxidant known for its ability to help defend the skin against free radical damage. Ergothioneine and Carnosine, both at 0.05%, add further antioxidant depth, while Panthenol at a generous 5% delivers meaningful hydration and supports a comfortable, soothed skin feel.
The result is a rich yet skin-compatible cream that layers comfortably into a routine. Suitable for Cherubs of all skin types, particularly those focused on visible firmness, hydration and long-term skin vitality.
It's Skin Cupid approved because...
epii openly discloses meaningful active concentrations, including HPT at 5% and Matrixyl Synthe'6 at 2%, and builds every formula from the result inward rather than the cost outward. That philosophy of Thoughtful Performance is exactly the kind of transparency and integrity we look for.
