Trying Matrixyl serum for a month – any changes in skin texture?

I decided to give Matrixyl a shot after reading about its collagen‑boosting claims. I bought a serum with around 5% Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 and applied it twice daily – morning after washing and night before bed – for four weeks straight. For the first few days I felt a light tingling around my cheeks, nothing painful, just a tiny buzz that faded quickly.

By week two I noticed my forehead lines looked a bit less deep when I smiled, and the skin around my eyes felt a tad firmer. I also seemed to retain moisture better; after a long gym session my face didn’t feel as tight or flaky as before. I kept my usual routine – no other new actives, just my regular moisturizer and sunscreen.

Ngl the changes were subtle but real enough that I’m thinking of continuing it a couple more months to see if anything else pops up. Has anyone else tried a similar stretch and seen comparable results?
