High Quality Cosmetic Peptides 99% Hexapeptide-3 CAS 1205679-02-2
Product Introduction
Hexapeptide-3 is a synthetic small-molecule active peptide composed of six amino acids, widely known as a botulinum-like peptide for skincare. Its INCI name is Hexapeptide-3. It generally appears as white crystalline powder with excellent water solubility. Thanks to its low molecular weight, it can penetrate the epidermis efficiently and act on the dermis. Instead of irritating the skin, it works by regulating signal transmission between nerves and facial muscles to relieve excessive muscle contraction, which makes it a popular mild anti-aging ingredient in the cosmetic industry.
Features
It possesses multiple outstanding advantages. Primarily, it targets dynamic wrinkles effectively, such as crow’s feet, frown lines and forehead lines. It prevents fine lines from getting deeper and fades mild static wrinkles gradually, delivering natural and steady anti-wrinkle effects. Secondly, it features high safety and ultra-low irritation. As a pure cosmetic ingredient, it will not cause facial numbness or side effects, nor lead to ingredient dependence. It is friendly to sensitive skin and can be used for long-term daily care.
Besides, Hexapeptide-3 has great formulation stability and strong compatibility. It tolerates regular pH value and storage conditions well, and can be combined with hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, vitamin derivatives and plant extracts to create multi-functional formulas with anti-wrinkle, moisturizing and brightening effects. Its superior skin absorption ensures the active ingredients work stably and continuously on the skin.
Product Application
This peptide is mainly applied in mid-to-high-end anti-aging cosmetics. It is a key component in anti-wrinkle serums, anti-aging creams and firming lotions to smooth fine lines and improve overall skin texture. It is extensively used in eye care products including eye creams, eye essences and eye masks, focusing on eliminating crow’s feet, dry lines and periorbital sagging.


Moreover, it is added into neck care products to reduce neck lines and flabby skin. It is also commonly formulated in professional salon skincare products, lyophilized powder and concentrated serums. Suitable for various formulations like lotions, creams, gels and essences, Hexapeptide-3 has become a mainstream raw material for mild and effective anti-wrinkle skincare.
