The brand sets a new benchmark for Chinese skincare
SHANGHAI, April 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Late nights, bedtime procrastination, and back-to-back weekend social plans: These modern habits are taking a visible toll on the skin. New data shows that the average age at which the first signs of aging appear in China has changed by about four years between 2018 and 2023. Researchers point to a clear link between premature wrinkles and today’s highly stressful, sleep-deprived lifestyles.[1].
On April 23, the second China Anti-Fatigue-Aging Tech Forum and the launch of CHANDO’s seventh generation rejuvenating repair essence (Xiao Zi Ping) concluded at TANK Shanghai. The event brought together experts from various fields to discuss skin aging and rejuvenation in the context of Chinese consumers’ skin care needs. In the spotlight: the improved version of seventh generation CHANDOthe signature anti-aging essence linked to fatigue. Powered by HiMurchaSin® Yeast, the formula helps consumers achieve better skincare results without changing their daily routines. The launch also featured a surprise appearance from AI-native virtual singer YURI, as well as other celebrities. A modern art of light and shadow mixed with natural elements of Himalayan inspiration, offering a resolutely avant-garde aesthetic.
Scientists examine factors responsible for accelerated skin aging
Hectic lives accelerate skin aging among Chinese consumers. According to a study reported by China National Radio (CNR), a research team led by Wang Sijia from the Shanghai Institute of Nutrition and Health, Chinese Academy of Sciences, analyzed facial skin aging and lifestyle factors using large-scale, multi-point data from the Chinese population. The study found that the inflection point of overall aging of wrinkles in China’s population arrived about four years earlier in 2023 than in 2018, indicating an increasing trend. earlier onset, faster progression and shortened aging cycle[1]. The research also noted a decrease in sleep duration and a younger age of starting smoking and drinking, indicating an increase in fatigue-focused lifestyles. Multiple lifestyle factors related to fatigue were closely related to the early onset of facial wrinkles.
In fact, skin aging due to a fatigue-induced lifestyle is a biological process that can be addressed scientifically. Deng Haiteng, a full professor at the School of Life Sciences at Tsinghua University, explained the science behind modulating the skin’s aging process. According to Deng, life stress can impair mitochondria – the energy factories inside human cells. The key to skin rejuvenation, he says, is turning on the cellular energy switch: PGC1α, a critical target of mitochondrial regeneration.
From the laboratory to the vanity: how an ingredient made in China became the heart of a new anti-aging formula
To address this biological mechanism, the R&D team led by Dr. Zou Yue, Vice President and Chief Scientist of CHANDO Group, used AI-based computational biology to screen and engineer more than 2.8 million yeast proteins. The result was HiMurchaSin® Ultra Anti-Peptide, a recently developed exclusive ingredient. According to CHANDO, HiMurchaSin® Ultra Anti-Peptide penetrates the skin 8.5 times better than traditional tetrapeptides[2]. It targets PGC1α – the mitochondrial energy switch, increasing its expression by 1.7x[3]. This supports cellular energy production, promotes cell and collagen renewal, helps improve skin firmness and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
Zheng Chunying, Chairman and Chairman of CHANDO Group, said: “Basic ingredients are the core of beauty in cosmetics. » He emphasized that CHANDO has always prioritized in-house R&D and manufacturing. The aim is to control costs, efficiency and supply stability so that Chinese consumers can access products that meet or exceed leading global standards at more affordable prices. “We want to make advanced skin care technology accessible to everyone,” Zheng said.
