CA$12.00
Elevate your skincare formulations with the ultimate frontier in anti-aging science. Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) is an ultra-pure, professional-grade biomimetic peptide complex renowned for its unparalleled ability to revitalize, firm, and restore skin elasticity. Known fondly in the beauty industry as the "blue glow peptide" and globally revered as the ultimate "fountain of youth" active, this high-performance crystalline powder stimulates the skin’s natural remodeling pathways. It signals structural proteins to actively minimize fine lines, promote cell signaling, and visibly reverse the signs of environmental aging.
Its signature deep blue hue is entirely natural to the raw peptide complex—absolutely no artificial colorants or dyes are added. It is the perfect luxury ingredient for creating custom serums, rejuvenating hair and scalp treatments, and deeply restorative skin creams right at home.
Product Specifications:
INCI Name: Copper Tripeptide-1
CAS Number: 89030-95-5
EINECS / EC Number: 1308068-626-2
Purity: 99% (Premium Cosmetic Grade)
Appearance: Distinctive, high-purity deep blue to violet crystalline powder (no artificial colors or dyes).
Molecular Weight: ~401.9 Da
Key Benefits & Performance:
Collagen & Elastin Synthesis: Signals deep tissue remodeling, prompting fibroblasts to generate structural proteins for a firmer, more lifted facial profile.
Deep Wrinkle Reduction: Outperforms traditional actives like topical Vitamin C or mild retinoids in smoothness tests without triggering surface irritation.
Skin Barrier Repair: Visibly reduces skin thinning by strengthening structural proteins, resulting in a more resilient, hydrated skin barrier.
Antioxidant & Soothing Support: Calms reactive skin, dampens inflammation, and scavenges free radicals caused by daily UV exposure.
Advanced Hair Care Applications: Highly effective in scalp treatments to condition follicles, supporting thicker, healthier-looking hair.
Solubility & Stability Matrix:
Water Solubility: Freely soluble in water. Completely hydrophilic.
Oil & Alcohol Solubility: Insoluble in cosmetic oils, carrier oils, and ethanol.
pH Stability Window: Must be kept strictly between pH 5.0 and 7.0.
Warning: Copper ions will precipitate out of solution (turning the liquid murky or green) if the pH drops below 4.0 or rises above 7.5.
Formulation Guidelines:
Recommended Usage Rate: Typically utilized between 0.1% and 1.0% for maximum topical efficacy.
Example: A 1% concentration delivers an exceptionally potent, luxury-tier "deep blue" serum or cream.
How to Incorporate: Dissolve the pure powder directly into a small amount of distilled water at room temperature. Add this pre-dissolved solution during the cool-down phase of your batch (below 40°C / 104°F) once your emulsion has fully formed.
Incompatibility Alerts (Crucial for Formulators):
Do not mix with strong acids: Keep away from low-pH Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs), or L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C). Acidic environments break the copper-peptide bond and ruin the active.
Do not mix with Chelating Agents: Avoid EDTA or similar chelators in the same formula, as they will pull the copper ion away from the peptide chain.
