Pep-Oil™ Pal-GHK (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Oil-Soluble) is an oil-compatible liquid concentrate of Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, also known as Pal-GHK, designed for leave-on anti-aging, lip-care, facial oil, balm, and oil-serum formulations.

Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is the palmitoylated form of the GHK tripeptide sequence. The palmitoyl chain improves lipid affinity, making this format useful when the formulator wants a peptide active in an oil phase, anhydrous base, balm, or emulsion oil phase rather than a water/glycol peptide solution.

This concentrate contains 0.1% Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 active in an oil-soluble liquid format. It is intended for visible wrinkle-care, matrix-support, skin-smoothing, lip-line, and firmness concepts while keeping the peptide easier to incorporate into lipophilic systems.

Product Description: Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 is commonly used as a matrikine-style signal peptide for collagen- and glycosaminoglycan-related anti-aging concepts. In formulation practice, it is used when the finished product needs support for the appearance of fine lines, wrinkle depth, skin smoothness, firmness, and elasticity. The evidence base is strongest for cosmetic appearance endpoints and formulation use; claims should remain cosmetic and should not be written as wound-healing, tissue-repair, or medical-regeneration claims.

Usage: Suitable for anti-aging creams, lotions, facial oils, oil-serums, lip balms, lipsticks, eye-area products, neck creams, body butter, and oil-rich hybrid skincare/makeup formulas.

Mixing method:

- Add into the oil phase or post-emulsification oil phase during cool-down.

- Avoid heating above 40°C; prolonged heat, strong light, and strong oxidizing systems can reduce peptide performance.

- For emulsions, add after the main emulsion has cooled and mix until uniform. For anhydrous oils, balms, and sticks, blend into the oil phase at the lowest practical temperature.

- Recommended finished-formula pH for emulsion systems: approximately pH 3.5-6.5.

Usage rate: 2.5-10% of this 0.1% concentrate (delivers approximately 0.0025-0.01% Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 active). Typical: 5% concentrate delivers approximately 0.005% active.

Product characteristics: Colorless to pale yellow clear or slightly hazy oil-soluble liquid.

Solubility: Oil-soluble / oil-dispersible. Designed for oil phase, oil-serum, balm, stick, and emulsion systems where an oil-compatible peptide format is preferred.

Storage: Store refrigerated at 1-10°C, sealed, and protected from light. Bring to room temperature before weighing if viscosity increases during cold storage.
