AHK-Cu (100mg) – Copper Peptide for Skin & Hair Research and Cosmetic Formulation
AHK-Cu (also written as AHK-Cu peptide or Copper Tripeptide AHK) is a premium copper-binding peptidewidely recognised in skincare science for its role in supporting a healthier-looking skin environment. Supplied in a convenient 100mg format, AHK-Cu is a popular choice for cosmetic research, topical formulation development, and laboratory work exploring peptide-based approaches to skin and hair appearance.
Copper peptides have earned a strong reputation in modern skincare because copper is a naturally occurring element in the body and is associated with processes involved in skin renewal and tissue maintenance. AHK-Cu is designed to be used as a high-quality raw material for research and formulation—ideal for brands, formulators, and professionals aiming to develop next-generation skincare and haircare products with peptide technology at their core.
Key Benefits (Cosmetic/Appearance-Focused)
When used appropriately in cosmetic research and formulation, AHK-Cu is commonly associated with:
-
Smoother-looking skin texture and improved overall skin appearance
-
Supporting the look of firmer, more refreshed skin

How AHK-Cu Works (In Simple Terms)
AHK-Cu is a peptide complexed with copper, and peptides are often described as “messenger” ingredients in cosmetic science because they’re studied for how they may support a more balanced-looking skin environment. Copper peptides are especially popular in anti-ageing skincare research because they are associated with pathways related to skin support and renewal, and because copper is frequently studied for its role in maintaining the look of healthy skin.
In formulation development, AHK-Cu is often explored for how it may help create products that target:
-
skin resilience and the look of recovery
-
hydration-supportive routines
-
a more refined, rejuvenated appearance
