About
A lab-made peptide used to help suppress microbes in the formula or on skin and help reduce excess oil. It has a more noticeable irritation or sensitization profile than basic cosmetic ingredients.
This is a synthetic or recombinant peptide designed for conditioning or signaling effects, and peptides usually have lower skin penetration than small molecules. That keeps it usable in some products, but it is less comfortable than simple moisturizers and should be handled with more caution.
