About

A seven-amino-acid synthetic peptide complexed with zinc. Trace-level cosmetic active; limited independent data on this specific peptide.

Zinc heptapeptide-70 is a synthetic seven-amino-acid peptide formulated as a zinc complex for skin-conditioning use. Zinc-peptide chemistry is well established (e.g. copper tripeptide-1 analogues), and the peptide is used at parts-per-million concentrations. There is no SCCS or CIR opinion on this specific entity; toxicology rests on supplier dossiers. Zinc at trace cosmetic levels is generally well tolerated, but high concentrations of free zinc salts can be mildly irritating on sensitive skin.
