About

A synthetic six-amino-acid peptide capped with an acetyl group for stability — used as a skin-conditioning active. Low-risk by class.

Acetyl Hexapeptide-39 is a defined-sequence synthetic hexapeptide with an N-terminal acetyl group, a common modification that improves chemical stability and formulation compatibility. Acetylated short peptides have a generally favorable safety profile in cosmetic use — low irritation, minimal sensitization, breakdown to amino acids and acetate by skin enzymes. No specific CIR or SCCS opinion exists. Independent peer-reviewed efficacy data is essentially absent; claims rely on supplier in vitro work.
