About
A synthetic four-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning active. Low-risk by class; specific data is thin.
Tetrapeptide-57 is a defined-sequence synthetic four-amino-acid peptide used as a skin-conditioning agent. Like other numbered tetrapeptides, it is typically formulated at very low percentages. Short cosmetic peptides have a clean class safety profile — low irritation, minimal sensitization, rapid breakdown to amino acids on skin. There is no specific CIR or SCCS review. Independent efficacy data is essentially absent; claims are supplier-derived. Considered low-risk, low-evidence.
