Description
Copper Tripeptide-1 Product Overview
Copper tripeptide-1 is a blue to purple powder made of the tripeptide glycyl-histidyl-lysine (GHK) bound to a copper(II) ion. GHK occurs naturally in human plasma, and its copper complex supports skin renewal and collagen production.
In addition, cosmetic formulators use it in serums, creams and eye care for firming and anti-aging, and in hair and scalp serums for thicker-looking hair, typically at about 0.01–0.1%. Because strong acids and some actives such as vitamin C and certain peptides can interact with copper, formulations are designed carefully. It is often combined with Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8.
Notably, related cosmetic actives in our range include Hyaluronic Acid (Sodium Salt) and Ceramide NP.
