Pentapeptide
Benefits & Use Cases
Pentapeptide is a biomimetic peptide that helps the skin become less sensitive by neutralising signals in skin’s uppermost layers that would otherwise appear as signs of sensitivity. In order to deliver this peptide to skin and keep it stable during use, it’s typically paired with emollient fatty acids such as shea butter or lecithin.
