About
A botox-inspired biotech peptide with a much shakier safety story than ordinary skincare ingredients.
SR-(CLOSTRIDIUM BOTULINUM POLYPEPTIDE-1 JELLYFISH POLYPEPTIDE-1 HEXAPEPTIDE-40) is a recombinant fusion protein built from botulinum-derived and other peptide sequences for strong bioactivity claims. Large proteins still have limited penetration through intact skin, but botulinum-associated design and extreme novelty make this a high-uncertainty cosmetic ingredient. That is very different from a basic moisturizer or simple peptide.
