High Purity Miristoyl Pentapeptide-4 Cosmetic Ingredient
A fatty acid-modified pentapeptide that comprehensively supports skin firmness, elasticity, and moisture retention. It addresses skin damage caused by aging and environmental stress.
Myristoyl Pentapeptide-4 is a high-performance cosmetic ingredient that modifies a peptide with a sequence of five types of amino acids with myristoyl (myristic acid). The fatty acid modification enhances skin permeability, increasing the efficiency of reaching not only the stratum corneum but also the deeper layers of the skin. This ingredient has been reported to promote collagen production in the skin and improve the decline in elasticity and firmness. It also supports the skin's barrier function, protecting it from dryness and external stimuli. Myristoyl Pentapeptide-4 can be incorporated into a wide range of cosmetic formulations, including lotions, emulsions, creams, serums, face masks, and eye creams. It is a low-irritant ingredient suitable for sensitive skin formulations, combining safety and functionality. It is adopted by cosmetic manufacturers both domestically and internationally and is highly regarded as an ingredient that brings out youthful and healthy radiance in the skin.
