Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12 High-Performance Anti-Aging Cosmetic Ingredient
High Purity Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12 Cosmetic Ingredient
A fatty acid-modified hexapeptide that comprehensively supports skin firmness, elasticity, and moisture retention. It addresses skin damage caused by aging and environmental stress.
Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12 is a high-performance cosmetic ingredient that modifies a peptide with a sequence of six types of amino acids with palmitic acid (a fatty acid). The fatty acid modification enhances skin permeability, improving the efficiency of reaching not only the stratum corneum but also 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. Additionally, it supports the skin's barrier function, protecting it from dryness and external stimuli. Palmitoyl Hexapeptide-12 can be applied in a wide range of skincare products, including water-based and oil-based formulations such as lotions, emulsions, creams, serums, face masks, and eye creams. It is a low-irritation 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 enhances the skin's youthfulness and healthy glow.
