Myristoyl Hexapeptide-4 is a synthetic lipopeptide composed of a myristoyl fatty acid linked to a hexapeptide sequence. Recognized for its role in cosmetic formulations, it is designed to support the appearance and condition of skin and hair. Its amphiphilic structure facilitates integration into various delivery systems, making it suitable for use in serums, creams, and hair care products targeting visible texture and resilience.
CAT No: CPC1637
Mechanism of Action (MOA)
Myristoyl Hexapeptide-4 is a biomimetic signal peptide conjugated with a myristoyl fatty acid chain to enhance skin affinity. It interacts with cellular communication pathways by mimicking natural skin peptides, supporting the modulation of extracellular matrix components. Through these biochemical interactions, Myristoyl Hexapeptide-4 may influence the expression of key proteins involved in skin structure, contributing to improved signaling processes within the epidermal and dermal layers.
Myristoyl Hexapeptide-4 is suitable for incorporation into various cosmetic formulations to enhance product diversity and texture.
- Facial serums and emulsions- Eye contour creams and gels- Leave-on facial masks- Lightweight moisturizing lotions- Targeted treatment concentrates- Primer formulations for makeup- Overnight skin care products
