We have created this 0.1% solution to be most useful in skin care products. Easy to handle but sufficiently concentrated not to liquefy a cream.

In human serum, copper spontaneously binds to glycyl-histidyl-lysine (GHK), a tripeptide complex that has high affinity for the copper (II) ion. This complex has been shown in vitro and in vivo to accelerate wound healing.

One study reported that the addition of GHK-copper complex to human fibroblasts induced a specific, concentration-dependent stimulation of collagen synthesis. A later study demonstrated a dose-dependent stimulation of glycosaminoglycan synthesis, specifically heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate, by adding GHK-copper complex to human skin fibroblasts. We have created this solution to be most useful in skin care products - easy to handle, but not sufficiently concentrated to liquefy a cream. We can alter the concentration of the solution upon request on wholesale orders. Pure peptide is also available to wholesale customers, contact us for information. By stimulating collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, characteristic features of the postinflammatory phase of wound repair, the GHK-copper complex may contribute to the formation of the extracellular matrix and promote wound healing. NOTE: Amino acids are the subunits that make up a protein. Amino acids can join each other in a peptide bond through the loss of a water molecule: two amino acids joined in a peptide bond constitute a dipeptide, three a tripeptide, a five a pentapeptide, etc. A protein can be made up of just one or several polypeptides.

Each tube (2 mL) is enough for about 4 fl oz of cream or gel at approximately 0.1% concentration. Use in your favorite cream or add to our Canvas Base Cream, European Cream, or our Sea Kelp Ultramarine.

Note: Too much copper (even as Copper Peptide) is not good for your skin, this is why the recommended concentration is 0.1%. 



To achieve the perfect concentration and protect copper peptide structure, the active is shipped to you in a solution containing distilled water, glycerol and preservatives. Please keep refrigerated until added to the cream.

    I had put off trying this because it seemed like a big step for my skin. (43yrs) But I met a lady in her 60s who uses Copper peptide and I was inspired to try it since I thought she was in her 40s and she had outstanding, firm skin.

    The Copper peptide (with coQ10) added to my own cream made a huge difference in firmness within a few days. Not expecting fast results so I kept looking at my skin with a skeptical eye, but it continues to impress me. And super easy to apply and get on with my day.
