Palmitoyl hexapeptide-12 is a lab-made peptide that blends the fatty acid palmitic acid with several amino acids, including glycine, histidine, and lysine. Combining this specifically engineered peptide with palmitic acid enhances its penetration into skin as well as the peptide’s stability.
In the early days of peptides in skin care it went by the catchall term palmitoyl oligopeptide. The amino acid sequence of this peptide mimics that of peptides naturally occurring in skin, meaning skin recognizes and can readily utilize it.
It works on and within skin’s uppermost layers by influencing key supportive elements in skin that result in a firmer surface and minimized appearance of wrinkles. It also strengthens skin’s barrier by improving moisture retention, leaving skin feeling supple instead of rough. As a signal peptide, it can “tell” skin to look younger.
- A synthetic peptide that matches a sequence of amino acids found in skin
- Signals skin to look younger by boosting its firm feeling
- Creates a supple surface by strengthening skin’s barrier
- Requires a surprisingly low amount for efficacy
