Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A capsaicin-peptide hybrid used for warming and microcirculation effects. Capsaicin origin keeps it in caution territory despite being bound to a peptide.
Capsaicinyl succinoyl tripeptide-35 is a synthetic conjugate linking a capsaicin moiety (the pungent principle of chili peppers) via a succinoyl spacer to a short tripeptide. It is marketed for warming sensations, microcirculation support, and scalp-stimulating hair products. The peptide conjugation is intended to modulate release and reduce direct capsaicin irritation. Free capsaicin is a well-characterized TRPV1 agonist and skin irritant; the safety profile of this specific conjugate is proprietary and supplier-supplied rather than established through SCCS/CIR review. No standardized regulatory category; caution advised on broken or sensitive skin.
