Science
Mechanism of Action
This peptide specifically inhibits the carbonylation of skin proteins, a key indicator of oxidative stress. It also reduces UV-induced pro-inflammatory cytokines, acting as a 'biological shield' to mitigate photoaging.

Key findings
- 01 In-vivo studies demonstrated a 33% reduction in wrinkle depth and a 19% increase in skin elasticity over 28 days.
- 02 Acts as a targeted antioxidant, preventing protein carbonylation and lipid peroxidation caused by UV exposure.

The Formula
Formulation
Stability
This peptide is sensitive to heat, requiring addition during the cool-down phase (<40°C). Optimal stability is achieved in aqueous formulations within a slightly acidic to neutral pH (4.0-6.5) to prevent hydrolysis.
Conflicts
- Strong oxidizing agents
- Strong acids or bases
- Proteolytic enzymes
Safety
Safety Profile
The CIR has not independently reviewed this specific conjugate; however, it is listed in the EU CosIng database as an antioxidant and skin protectant. While a component, Salicylic Acid, is regulated, this peptide's regulatory status differs.
