Melittin (Pure Powder) is a high-purity cosmetic peptide powder for advanced clarifying, blemish-prone, and specialty peptide R&D. It is a high-potency material intended for experienced formulators who need a very low-dose peptide for targeted cosmetic development.

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

Use Melittin for experimental leave-on formulas where the concept is focused on oily-looking skin, blemish-prone skin, and cosmetic antimicrobial-support positioning. Because Melittin is biologically active and can be irritating at unsuitable levels, it should be handled as a precision active and validated carefully in the finished product.

Product Description: Melittin (Pure Powder) is best suited to professional cosmetic laboratories developing specialty serums, gels, masks, and targeted clarifying products. It is not a bulk additive; it is a high-potency peptide for controlled, low-level use.

Usage: Use in advanced cosmetic R&D for clarifying concepts, blemish-prone skin formulas, oily-skin products, and targeted leave-on prototypes. Avoid medical acne-treatment claims.

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.

- Confirm irritation profile, preservative compatibility, clarity, and peptide recovery in the finished formula before commercial use.

Usage rate: 0.0001-0.001% of pure peptide powder. Start at the lowest level and increase only with finished-formula safety and stability support.

Product characteristics: White to off-white powder.

Solubility: Best prepared as a water/glycol stock solution for accurate low-level dosing.

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