A synthetic six-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning agent. Designer hexapeptide with limited public safety/efficacy literature.

Hexapeptide-105 is a six-residue synthetic peptide developed for cosmetic skin-conditioning use. Hexapeptides in cosmetics are dosed at parts-per-million levels in serums and creams and are generally regarded as low-irritation due to poor penetration and rapid degradation. No independent CIR or SCCS review of this specific INCI is available; efficacy claims rely on supplier-sponsored studies. Listed in EU CosIng. Conservative tier: yellow with low evidence.
