Manufacturing & Formulation

Delivery: Multi-peptide complexes release actives over time for continuous collagen support and visible repair.

Formats: Available in various peptide blends and concentrations for serums, creams, and targeted treatments.

Scalability: Performs consistently from boutique batches to full-scale production lines.

The Science of Peptides

  1. Stimulates natural collagen and elastin synthesis for visibly firmer, smoother skin
  2. Reinforces the skin matrix to improve strength, structure, and elasticity
  3. Helps relax expression lines and reduce wrinkle depth for a rejuvenated look
  4. Supports barrier repair and moisture retention for lasting hydration and resilience

Types of Peptides

Peptides are not a single ingredient, but a diverse category of bioactive compounds each designed to communicate specific messages to the skin. Each peptide has a distinct mechanism of action, targeting specific concerns within the skin’s structure.

Our 5 Signal Peptide Complex

  1. Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7
  2. Tripeptide-1
  3. Hexapeptide-9
  4. Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4
  5. Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7

Signal Peptide

A soothing and reparative signal peptide that helps calm inflammation and prompt the skin to rebuild its structural proteins. It works synergistically with other peptides to strengthen firmness and elasticity.

Tripeptide-1

Signal Peptide

This peptide signals fibroblasts to boost collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production. It helps repair and tighten the skin while improving tone and smoothness.

Hexapeptide-9

Signal + Regenerative Peptide

Known for its regenerative power, it accelerates collagen renewal and dermal repair, supporting smoother texture and improved density.

Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4

Signal Peptide

It reinforces the dermal matrix by stimulating the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans. It’s often used to target fine lines and loss of elasticity.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5

Signal Peptide + Collagen Support Peptide

It helps stimulate collagen while protecting existing fibers from enzymatic breakdown. It firms, smooths, and strengthens skin for a visibly plumper, more youthful look.

Product Line Extensions

Best Pairs With: Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Ceramides

Avoid Mixing: High concentrations of AHAs/BHAs or ascorbic acid at the same time

Cross-Sell Opportunities: Bundle with our Matcha & Ginseng Replenishing Cleanser, BioHydrate Essence and Niacinamide & Hyaluronic Acid Water Cream for a comprehensive hydrating routine that can be used AM or PM.

Peptides are chains of amino acids that signal the skin to perform functions like producing collagen or repairing damage.

Yes, most peptides are gentle, non-irritating, and suitable for all skin types.

Yes. They can be layered with or alternated alongside strong actives for optimal results.

Unlike exfoliants or retinoids that resurface the skin, peptides communicate with skin cells to rebuild structure from within, strengthening collagen, elastin, and barrier integrity over time.

They serve different purposes. Retinol boosts turnover and renewal, while peptides rebuild and strengthen. Used together (alternating AM/PM or layered thoughtfully), they deliver powerful age-correcting synergy.
