About

A synthetic eight-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning active. Low-risk by peptide class; specific evidence is thin.

Octapeptide-37 is a defined-sequence synthetic peptide of eight amino acids used in skin-conditioning formulations. Like other short numbered peptides, the sequence is supplier-defined and typically used at fractions of a percent. Octapeptides in cosmetics have a generally clean safety profile — too large for efficient deep penetration, broken down by skin proteases into amino acids, low sensitization risk. No CIR or SCCS opinion exists. Peer-reviewed independent efficacy literature is essentially absent.
