Acetyl Hexapeptide-1

Product Description

Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 is a synthetic peptide used in cosmetic formulations for its skin-soothing and pigmentation-regulating properties. It is designed to mimic alpha-MSH (melanocyte-stimulating hormone), helping to modulate melanin production and promote a more even skin tone. Additionally, it exhibits anti-inflammatory and calming effects, making it suitable for sensitive skin and post-treatment products. Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 is commonly used in brightening serums, anti-aging creams, and products aimed at reducing redness, hyperpigmentation, and environmental stress. Its dual function in improving skin tone and reducing irritation makes it a valuable active in modern skincare.
