About
A lab-made peptide used to condition skin and support a smoother, more refined feel.
Heptapeptide-54 is a synthetic peptide consisting of asparagine, glutamine, isoleucine, lysine, serine and valine. As a synthetic or recombinant peptide, it is typically used at very low levels and is generally considered low risk, though human data are often limited compared with older staple ingredients.
