About

A synthetic six-amino-acid peptide for skin conditioning. Low risk based on peptide-class behavior, but specific evidence is thin.

Hexapeptide-70 is a synthetic 6-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning agent. Like other numbered hexapeptides in personal care, it is typically supplied as a low-percentage active in serum and treatment products. Short defined-sequence peptides generally show low irritation, low sensitization, and rapid enzymatic breakdown on skin. There is no specific regulatory opinion (CIR, SCCS, EU CosIng safety dossier) for Hexapeptide-70. Independent peer-reviewed efficacy data is limited; most claims trace to supplier in vitro work. Considered low-risk by class, low-evidence by specificity.
