Fine
Derived from EU CosIng regulatory status, PubChem hazard data and published research. How we score.
A synthetic six-amino-acid peptide used in skin-conditioning formulas. Low-risk by class; specific evidence is thin.
Hexapeptide-58 is a defined-sequence synthetic six-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning agent. Hexapeptides have a generally favorable safety profile in cosmetic use — too large to deeply penetrate, broken down to amino acids by skin proteases, low sensitization risk. There is no specific CIR or SCCS opinion. Independent peer-reviewed efficacy data is essentially absent; claims rely on supplier in vitro work.
