Safety score · 0–100

Fine

Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.

A two-amino-acid synthetic peptide used as a skin-conditioning signal. Tiny use levels and low irritation, but with limited independent safety data.

Dipeptide-71 is a short synthetic peptide (two amino acids) sold as a skin-conditioning agent and active. Like most numbered cosmetic peptides, it is used at parts-per-million concentrations, which intrinsically limits systemic exposure and irritation potential. There is no published SCCS or CIR opinion; toxicology is largely supplier-provided. Short peptides are generally non-sensitizing and rapidly metabolised on the skin. Efficacy claims for individual numbered peptides should be viewed with caution until independent clinical evidence appears.
