Application
Acetyl tetrapeptisde-5 is a known humectant or hydroscopic moisturizer which helps reduce eye puffiness, improve skin elasticity and overall smoothness.

Mechanism of Action (MOA)

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 is a synthetic tetrapeptide that interacts with skin cells by modulating cellular signaling pathways associated with water homeostasis and extracellular matrix components. It is known to influence the expression of aquaporin channels and glycosaminoglycan turnover, supporting optimal skin hydration. Additionally, this peptide may help regulate enzymatic activity involved in tissue equilibrium, contributing to the maintenance of skin's natural appearance and resilience.

Acetyl Tetrapeptide-5 is suitable for incorporation into various cosmetic formulations targeting the eye area and skin hydration. Typical application directions include:

- Add to eye creams and serums during the cooling phase below 40°C
- Incorporate into facial gels and lotions for enhanced skin conditioning
- Use in sheet masks designed for the periorbital region
- Blend into hydrating sprays and mists
- Compatible with water-based emulsions and gel systems
