First seen Jul 23, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a daily capsule of edible bird's nest peptide can improve facial skin hydration, elasticity, brightness, and reduce wrinkles and pores in healthy adults. Over 8 weeks, participants take either the supplement or a placebo and undergo non-invasive skin assessments. The goal is to see if this natural ingredient offers real cosmetic benefits.
