Formulation Deep Dive
Copper Amino Isolate Serum 3 1:1 (CAIS3) by NIOD is engineered as a water-based, peptide-forward serum built around a high concentration of copper peptide and a broad supporting peptide architecture. The carrier is a streamlined aqueous system of Aqua and Glycerin, with Glycerin doubling as the primary humectant. The formula's defining feature is its position high in the ingredient list for Copper Tripeptide-1, paired with a layered peptide complex of Tripeptide-29, Tripeptide-1, Myristoyl Nonapeptide-3, Trifluoroacetyl Tripeptide-2, and Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 to diversify the signaling profile. Hydration and substantivity are reinforced by Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer for a cushioned, film-forming moisture layer, while Glycogen and Dextran act as biopolymer conditioning agents that support skin feel and texture. A solvent and penetration-modifier system of Propanediol, Pentylene Glycol, Dimethyl Isosorbide, and Ethoxydiglycol keeps the actives soluble and aids even spreadability, with Isoceteth-20 serving as a solubilizer for any sparingly water-soluble components. The result is a lightweight, fast-absorbing fluid with no oils or silicones. Preservation follows a hybrid clean-label strategy combining Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, Caprylyl Glycol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol, and Chlorphenesin.
