Benefits of Tripeptide-1

A small, well-researched signal peptide that supports the look of firm, renewed skin.

• Firming Look: Signals that support the appearance of firmer, more resilient skin.
• Smoothing: Helps soften the look of fine lines and uneven texture.
• Renewal Look: Supports a fresh, revitalized-looking complexion.
• Skin-Identical: A peptide naturally found in the skin.
• Compact Peptide: Its small size supports better delivery than large proteins.

How It Works

GHK is a naturally occurring signal peptide that the skin uses as a messenger in its renewal processes. Applied topically, Tripeptide-1 is thought to signal skin cells in ways associated with a firmer, smoother, more renewed appearance. As a small three-amino-acid peptide it is better positioned to reach its target than large proteins, though delivery still depends on the finished formula.

Formulating with Tripeptide-1

Tripeptide-1 is water-soluble and added to the water phase at cool-down and at low (peptide-typical) levels, ideally at a mildly acidic-to-neutral pH and protected from excess heat. It pairs well with humectants and other peptides. Observe good manufacturing and preservation practice.
