They are grouped by their presumed mode of action: signal peptides, carrier peptides, neurotransmitter inhibitors and enzyme inhibitors. On the label, each peptide has its own INCI name, for example PALMITOYL TRIPEPTIDE-38 or ACETYL HEXAPEPTIDE-8.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What are the benefits of peptides for skin?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"The trials cited cover less visible wrinkles and fine lines, less visible dark spots in combination with a vitamin C derivative and more even-looking skin. The level of evidence remains modest: a meta-analysis of 19 trials finds a modest effect on wrinkles, mostly driven by oral peptides. Results depend on the peptide, the formula and the duration.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Which peptide should you choose: pentapeptide-4, copper peptide or hexapeptide-8?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"It depends on the promise of the range. Palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 is tested on wrinkles and fine lines, acetyl hexapeptide-8 on eye-area wrinkles, tetrapeptide-30 on dark spots and copper peptide on firmness, mostly in a narrative review. The choice is made with the formulator, depending on the target and the budget for the active.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What percentage of peptides should a cream or serum contain?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Peptides are used at very low doses: 3 ppm (0.0003%) for palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 and 5 ppm (0.0005%) for palmitoyl tripeptide-38 in the trials cited. The CIR panel sets 0.005% as the limit judged safe for acetyl hexapeptide-8. A \\\"high peptide content\\\" is therefore no guarantee of efficacy.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Do peptides penetrate the skin?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Very little. For acetyl hexapeptide-8, 0.22% of the dose reaches the stratum corneum of human skin and no peptide is detected in the dermis. Lipopeptides are detected on the surface of stratum corneum cells, not inside them. This is a limit to know before promising a deep effect.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"What should you pair peptides with?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"In our formulas, they are most often paired with shea butter, coconut, sweet almond and argan oils, and niacinamide. In the trials cited, tetrapeptide-30 was tested with a vitamin C derivative and palmitoyl tripeptide-38 with vitamin C and vitamin E. The compatibility of the final formula is checked through stability testing in the lab.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Are there any risks with peptides?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"In the meta-analysis of 19 trials, tolerance is good, with few adverse events. The CIR panel judges acetyl hexapeptide-8 safe up to 0.005%; no equivalent conclusion was found for the other peptides cited here, which have no restriction in the EU. A tolerance test of the final formula is still advised.\"}}, {\"@type\": \"Question\", \"name\": \"Can you manufacture a peptide serum for my brand?\", \"acceptedAnswer\": {\"@type\": \"Answer\", \"text\": \"Yes. Our ISO 22716 certified lab offers 6 peptide formulas (serum, creams, hair care) that you can customize, or a custom formula. The choice and dosage of peptides are set with our formulators. Samples are free.\"}}]}]}<\/script>\n<script>(function(){\n  var $=function(s,c){return (c||document).querySelector(s)}, $$=function(s,c){return [].slice.call((c||document).querySelectorAll(s))};\n
