Dipeptide-2 is a high-purity cosmetic peptide powder for eye-area formulas that target tired-looking under-eye skin. It is a useful active for products designed to make the eye contour look fresher, smoother, and less puffy.

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

This peptide fits well in lightweight eye serums, gels, creams, masks, and targeted under-eye formulas where customers expect a refreshed look without a heavy or greasy feel. It is supplied as a concentrated powder so formulators can dose accurately at low use levels.

Product Description: Dipeptide-2 is selected for cosmetic eye-care concepts focused on under-eye freshness, de-puffing appearance, and a more rested-looking eye contour. It can be combined with humectants, soothing agents, antioxidants, and other eye-area peptides to build a complete premium formula.

Usage: Use in leave-on eye products, under-eye gels, serums, creams, masks, and targeted cosmetic formulas for tired-looking eye-area skin.

Mixing method:

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

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

- Recommended finished-product pH: 5.0-7.0.

- For eye-area use, confirm clarity, preservative compatibility, irritation profile, and peptide recovery in the finished formula.

Usage rate: 0.001-0.01% of pure peptide powder. Start at the low end for prototypes and adjust based on texture, stability, and desired positioning.

Product characteristics: White to off-white powder.

Solubility: Best prepared as a water/glycol stock solution before adding to the main formula.

Storage: Store tightly closed, protected from moisture. Keep refrigerated at 2-8°C for long-term storage.
