About
A synthetic biotin-peptide conjugate designed to target skin elasticity and support a more youthful appearance through collagen stimulation.
Biotinoyl pentapeptide-4 is a synthetic peptide consisting of biotin (vitamin B7) conjugated to a pentapeptide sequence. It is marketed for anti-aging skincare, particularly for improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. Peptides of this type are generally well-tolerated with minimal risk of sensitization. The INCI name is recognized in EU CosIng without specific restriction, though safety assessment for the specific peptide sequence is required.
