SR-SPIDER POLYPEPTIDE-2.

Insufficient Data / HAIR CONDITIONING, NAIL CONDITIONING, SKIN PROTECTING

SR-SPIDER POLYPEPTIDE-2 is a biomimetic peptide engineered to enhance skin's natural repair processes. It actively supports mature skin regeneration, fortifying its structure while also forming a protective barrier against environmental aggressors. This dual action contributes to visibly smoother texture and an improved youthful appearance.

Science

Mechanism of Action

This advanced polypeptide functions as a cellular signaling agent, prompting the skin's endogenous repair mechanisms. It specifically targets the slower regeneration of mature skin, promoting structural strengthening and aiding in the visible reduction of wrinkles. Concurrently, it acts as a film-forming biopolymer, creating a protective shield against environmental damage from pollution, UV radiation, and blue light, while imparting an emollient, firming, and silky-soft tactile finish.

Stability

Recombinant spider silk proteins are engineered for water solubility, often in aqueous solutions, maintaining this state until specific triggers initiate fiber formation. General peptide stability in formulations, particularly in dry powder forms, can be influenced by environmental factors such as temperature and humidity.

Safety

Safety Profile

CIR Status
Not reviewed
Sensitization risk Low

While SR-SPIDER POLYPEPTIDE-2 has not undergone specific review by the CIR or SCCS, general assessments for tissue-derived proteins and peptides indicate safety in cosmetic applications at typical use concentrations. A related spider silk-inspired biopolymer (SVX) demonstrated non-irritant and non-sensitizing properties in patch, HRIPT, phototoxicity, and ocular irritation tests. Paula's Choice notes this ingredient as 'Not rated' and states 'No known benefits' for this specific ingredient.

Verdict

Insufficient Data

Despite a compelling mechanism suggesting anti-aging and protective benefits, specific efficacy data and comprehensive safety assessments for SR-SPIDER POLYPEPTIDE-2 are currently insufficient for a definitive rating.
