Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8 is a high-purity cosmetic peptide powder for soothing, redness-prone, sensitive-looking, and discomfort-prone skin formulas.

Physical form: This product is supplied as a freeze-dried powder.

This peptide is used in sensitive-skin cosmetic systems where the finished product needs a stronger calming story than basic moisturizers alone. It fits leave-on products designed for skin that looks flushed, reactive, stressed, or easily uncomfortable.

Product Description: Use Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8 in premium soothing serums, calming gels, redness-care creams, barrier-support masks, and post-stress skincare products. It is especially useful in formulas that combine peptide comfort support with ceramides, panthenol, beta-glucan, allantoin, madecassoside, or gentle humectants.

Usage: Soothing serums, calming gels, redness-care creams, barrier-support masks, post-stress skincare, sensitive-skin moisturizers, and targeted leave-on comfort formulas.

Mixing method:

- Pre-dissolve in purified water, water/propanediol, water/butylene glycol, or water/glycerin before adding to the main batch.

- Add at the final step during cool-down when the formula is below 40°C. Avoid hot emulsification, hot-fill processing, and prolonged heating.

- Recommended finished-product pH is 5.0-7.0.

- Confirm clarity, preservative compatibility, peptide recovery, and irritation profile in the final formula, especially for sensitive-skin and eye-area products.

Usage rate: 0.001-0.01% pure peptide powder. Start at the low end for first prototypes and adjust by assay, stability, irritation, and claim substantiation.

Product characteristics: white to off-white cosmetic peptide powder.

Solubility: Best handled through a water/glycol stock solution; dispersible in cream or gel bases. Do not assume direct oil solubility without validation.

Storage: Store tightly closed, protected from moisture. Keep refrigerated at 2-8°C for long-term storage; avoid repeated opening and freeze-thaw cycling.
