GHK-Cu Copper Peptide Neck & Face Serum is a leave-on skincare formula built around 4% GHK-Cu, also known in cosmetic use as Copper Tripeptide-1.
Each 30 mL bottle is formulated to a strength of 1,200 mg GHK-Cu.
The formula combines GHK-Cu with aloe vera juice, glycerin, kojic acid, niacinamide and lightweight plant oils. The result is a thin serum designed to sit comfortably under moisturizer, sunscreen or makeup.
A leave-on GHK-Cu face and neck serum with niacinamide, kojic acid, aloe and conditioning plant oils in a lightweight dropper formula.
1,200 mg is the amount per bottle, not per drop. In 30 mL that is 40 mg per mL, the 4% concentration.
Copper Tripeptide-1 is the ingredient-list name for GHK-Cu, the copper-bound form of the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys.
Not the Advanced serum. The Advanced GHK-Cu Face & Neck Serum has the same labeled strength, 4% and 1,200 mg, in a bottle with a lockable pump.
Adults with normal, dry, combination or uneven-looking skin who want a daily copper peptide serum for the face and neck that layers under moisturizer and SPF. It is a face and neck serum, not an eye product.
This is a cosmetic serum for skin appearance and conditioning, not a treatment for any skin condition.
GHK-Cu has been studied for decades in skin and tissue biology, including research on extracellular-matrix remodeling, collagen-related pathways and visible signs of aging. Published clinical evidence for topical GHK-Cu remains limited, and studies of other creams or research formulations are not proof that this finished serum will produce the same results. A 2025 review noted that, despite wide cosmetic use, published information on GHK-Cu skin permeability and clinical effectiveness remains limited.
Controlled studies of 5% niacinamide have reported improvements in fine lines, texture, red blotchiness and hyperpigmented spots over 12 weeks. This serum does not state a 5% niacinamide concentration, so those results do not transfer directly.
Kojic acid is widely studied in pigmentation-related skincare, but its effects depend on concentration and formulation. This serum is not a treatment for melasma or another pigment disorder.
The 8 to 12 week timeline on this page is a practical way to judge the serum, not a timeline established in clinical studies of this finished formula. Results vary.
The formula contains lemon peel oil and lemon essential oil, so it is not fragrance-free and may not suit very reactive skin.
Copper Tripeptide-1
What the active is, and why it comes in amber glass.
GHK-Cu is the copper-bound form of the tripeptide Gly-His-Lys, three amino acids (glycine, histidine and lysine) holding a copper ion.
It has a long research history in skin biology and tissue remodeling, which is why Copper Tripeptide-1 is now used in many cosmetic formulas.
In this serum it sits in a light aloe base. Amber glass helps protect the formula from light, and the dropper dispenses a few drops at a time.
The label lists 14 ingredients. These cards cover the ones that shape how the serum feels and what it is there to do.
COPPER PEPTIDE ACTIVE
Copper Tripeptide-1
The primary active. It has a long research history in skin and tissue biology and is used here for the look and feel of the face and neck.
In label order, with standard ingredient names.
GHK-Cu itself gives the serum its tint, with no added dye.
It contains lemon peel oil and lemon essential oil, so it is not fragrance-free.
Phenoxyethanol with ethylhexylglycerin keeps the water-based serum stable after opening.
Look for gradual changes in how skin feels and looks, not dramatic day-to-day shifts. Words from customers who reviewed this serum mark the way.
First days
The first change you notice may be how your skin feels after the aloe, glycerin and plant oils. Take a starting photo of your face and neck in daylight so you have something to compare with later.
“The consistency and feel of this product with great ingredients is amazing.” Joanne C.
Weeks 1 to 4
Pay attention to hydration, softness and whether the serum suits your routine. If your skin is reactive, start more slowly, every other day.
“This serum helped my Skin feel smooth and soft.” Mendy L.
Weeks 5 to 8
With consistent use, changes in skin appearance may become easier to judge. Look at texture and overall tone rather than checking individual wrinkles every day.
“My skin is brighter and smoother, very hydrating product.” Heidi W.
Weeks 9 to 12
This is a more useful point to compare your skin with where you started. Take new photos in similar lighting for an objective comparison. One bottle lasts about 60 days with once-daily use, so 12 weeks takes about two bottles.
“I’m finishing up my second vial and can truly tell a difference.” John B.
Quotes are from verified customer reviews of this serum and describe individual experiences, not a clinical study. Results vary. This is a cosmetic product.
Start once a day. If your skin tolerates it well, you can use it morning and evening.
01 · CleanseWash your face and neck with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. If you use toner, apply it first.
02 · A few dropsDispense a few drops onto clean fingertips and pat them across your face and neck. More product is not better. Let the serum absorb before heavier products.
03 · FinishMorning: follow with moisturizer if needed and a broad-spectrum sunscreen. Evening: follow with your usual moisturizer or our GHK-Cu face cream.
Too much serum can roll up under makeup or sunscreen and leave a faint blue film. Use fewer drops, pat rather than rub, and let it dry fully before the next layer.
Especially worthwhile if your skin is reactive. Start every other day, avoid broken or inflamed skin and the eye area, and stop if irritation persists.
The practical concern is tolerability. This serum already contains kojic acid, niacinamide and essential oils, so use retinoids, exfoliating acids or prescription treatments in a separate routine, or introduce them gradually.
Fits alongside a gentle cleanser, hyaluronic acid, moisturizer, sunscreen and other simple hydrating products. Apply lighter layers first.

Two kinds of evidence
Older reviews summarize small human topical studies reporting changes in visible signs of aging, firmness and elasticity. Modern reviews describe the clinical evidence as limited and formulation-specific.

Reviews marked Verified Buyer are from confirmed purchases. They describe personal experience with this finished serum and are not clinical evidence.
Individual results vary. These are customer experiences, not a clinical study.
It is designed to support smoother-looking, softer and more even-looking skin while adding lightweight conditioning. Ingredient research exists for GHK-Cu, niacinamide and kojic acid, but this finished serum has not been clinically tested to reproduce every effect reported in those studies. See the research.
Give it 8 to 12 weeks of daily use. Skin feel may change earlier, while visible changes in texture or fine lines are better judged over several weeks. That is a practical benchmark, not a guaranteed result window.
Compare your skin over weeks, not day to day. Look at texture, softness, hydration, tone and overall conditioned appearance. Photos taken in similar lighting are more useful than memory.
Yes. Apply a few drops to clean, dry skin and let the serum absorb before moisturizer or sunscreen. Avoid direct contact with the eyes.
Yes. Start once daily. If your skin tolerates the formula well, you can use it morning and evening. Using it more often is not automatically better.
Neither time has been shown to be better. Morning use works under moisturizer and SPF; evening use works under your night moisturizer. Consistency matters more than the time of day.
Yes. It is a leave-on facial serum, so you do not need to rinse it off before bed.
About 60 days of once-daily use, depending on how many drops you use. Subscribe and Save takes 20% off every bottle.
Both hold 1,200 mg of GHK-Cu at 4% in 1 oz. The Advanced serum comes in a lockable pump bottle and costs more. This one comes in an amber glass dropper bottle. Compare them.
No. No cosmetic serum removes wrinkles. Used daily alongside sunscreen, it may help fine lines look softer over time.
Possible topical reactions include irritation, redness, dryness, stinging, itching or breakouts. The formula also contains kojic acid and lemon-derived oils, so a reaction is not necessarily caused by the copper peptide. Stop if irritation persists.
Anyone sensitive to one of its ingredients. People with very reactive skin or sensitivity to essential oils may prefer a simpler fragrance-free formula. Do not apply it to broken or significantly inflamed skin.
No. It contains lemon peel oil and lemon essential oil, and customers often mention its pleasant scent. There are no parabens.
It is not an eye serum. Avoid the eyelids and the area right around the eyes, because the formula contains kojic acid, lemon peel oil and lemon essential oil. For the eye area, choose a product made and labeled for it.
There is no universal never-combine list. The practical issue is cumulative irritation, so introduce retinoids, exfoliating acids, strong vitamin C or prescription skin treatments separately, or use them at a different time of day. How to use copper peptides
Yes, if your skin tolerates them. Apply lighter formulas first and let each layer settle before the next. If pilling or irritation occurs, simplify the routine.
Use fewer drops, pat rather than rub, and let it dry completely before makeup or sunscreen. Some customers have reported pilling when they used too much.
A light tint is normal. Copper-peptide complexes have a characteristic blue color, and the GHK-Cu contributes to the color of the serum. If your serum looks cloudy or has separated, contact us with the lot number on the bottle.
Yes. It is made for the face and neck, and the same thin layer works on the upper chest. Patch test a new area first.
Microneedling breaks the skin barrier, so follow your professional's advice or the device instructions. Many people wait until the skin has settled before applying any serum.
Yes. A Qalitex certificate for lot DK25-CPG2-3 documents GHK-Cu potency, heavy metals and microbiological testing. See the lab results.
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you are not happy for any reason, contact us and we will give you a full refund.
