Copper Peptides in Skincare
Copper peptides are an excellent skincare ingredient because they have the potential to positively interact with the skin's natural functions. One key research area is copper peptides' interaction with the skin’s ability to produce collagen and elastin, proteins involved in maintaining skin integrity [1]. Both collagen and elastin are responsible for maintaining young-looking skin, a healthy skin barrier, and healthy skin texture.
Antioxidant and Hair Benefits
To add to its possible anti-aging skin support, copper peptides may have antioxidant potential, protecting the skin from oxidative stress caused by environmental pollutants and UV radiation [2]. Research on hair care points to maintaining a healthy scalp to encourage healthy hair follicles and, therefore, fuller-looking hair [3].
Product Applications
Copper peptide-containing products like serums, creams, and lotions may offer supportive benefits when applied as part of a daily skincare or hair routine. That being said, none of our products promise to stop the hands of time or cure hair loss. They’re formulated to complement your existing care regimens, aiming to enhance your skin and hair's overall appearance and health.
How to Use GHK-Cu Products
Our products are designed to be used or combined with your existing products. Here’s how you can start incorporating copper peptides into your routine.
Eye Serum:
Formulated with a lower concentration of GHK-Cu, the eye serum is suited for the delicate skin around the eyes. Apply gently around the eye area with light tapping motions to support the appearance of this sensitive skin without irritating it.
Face and Neck Serum:
After cleansing and toning, gently pat the serum onto the skin of your face and neck. Use this serum twice daily to help maintain skin health.
Hair Serum:
For scalp care, spray the hair serum onto a clean, dry scalp daily. Regular use helps support scalp condition and contributes to the overall health of your hair.
Face Cream:
Apply the GHK-Cu face cream after your toner and serums. It’s moisturizing and lightweight, perfect for both day and night use. The cream also serves as an excellent base for makeup, enhancing application and wear.
Copper Peptide Tablets:
Our newest addition, the copper peptide tablets, are designed to support beauty from within. Taking one tablet daily as part of your supplement regimen may help address copper deficiencies in the diet, supporting overall wellness.
