Copper peptide, glycerin and aloe in a light cream. No added fragrance, no essential oils, no acids.
Get it in The Sensitive Skin Receipt, $49.95
Copper amino acid complexPeptide
insufficient evidenceCopper bound to the amino acids lysine and proline. It is related to, but not the same as, the GHK-Cu copper peptide most studies use. We found no human trials on this exact form, so treat it as a supporting player.
GlycerinHumectant
well-supportedDraws water into the top layer of skin. One of the best-studied moisturizing ingredients there is.
Aloe leaf juiceSoothing
limited evidenceHydrating and calming in small studies. Most of the strong claims come from lab work, not big trials.
Olive-derived emulsifiersTexture
insufficient evidenceThese hold the oil and water together and give the light cream feel. Their job is texture, not a skin benefit on their own.
Caprylic/capric triglycerideEmollient
limited evidenceA light oil from coconut that softens skin and slows water loss. Well tolerated by most skin types.
Vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate)Antioxidant
limited evidenceA stable form of vitamin E. Mostly protects the formula and adds softness. Its antioxidant benefit on skin is weaker than pure tocopherol.
Cranberry, moringa, neem and ecliptaBotanicals
insufficient evidenceAntioxidant-rich plant extracts. Lab data exists, human skin data is thin. Neem and eclipta can bother very reactive skin, so patch test.
Witch hazel water and alcoholWatch for
limited evidenceBoth sit low in the list. Most people are fine, but they can sting if your barrier is already damaged.
Plain truth: glycerin and the emollients do most of the work here. The copper complex is a nice extra, not a proven anti-aging active.
Smooth a pea-sized amount over face and neck after your serum, morning and night. In the daytime, finish with sunscreen.
Has a little alcohol and witch hazel water low in the list. Patch test first if your skin reacts to those.
