AccessPEP 3000

Q: What is the recommended usage rate for AccessPEP 3000?

The recommended concentration is between 3% and 8%. Use lower levels for daily maintenance products and higher levels for intensive serums or creams.

Q: How does AccessPEP 3000 work to reduce wrinkles?

It contains matrikine peptides that mimic collagen fragments and signal fibroblasts to produce more collagen, elastin, and fibronectin—rebuilding the extracellular matrix and smoothing wrinkles from within.

Q: Can AccessPEP 3000 be used with Vitamin C or Retinol?

Yes. Its broad pH stability allows pairing with many Vitamin C derivatives. When using potent retinoids, consider separate application times (e.g., peptides in the morning, retinol at night) to maximize efficacy.

Q: What is the optimal pH for formulations containing AccessPEP 3000?

It is stable and effective across a pH range of 3.0 to 8.0, offering high versatility in various formulation bases.

Q: How is this different from a neuropeptide like Acetyl Hexapeptide-8?

AccessPEP 3000 supports structural rebuilding of collagen and elastin to address static wrinkles, while neuropeptides primarily target expression lines by modulating nerve-to-muscle communication. They are complementary mechanisms.

Q: Is there clinical data available on the peptides in AccessPEP 3000?

Yes. The Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 combination is well documented with numerous studies demonstrating improvements in visible signs of aging. Contact our technical team for detailed data.

Advanced Collagen-Boosting Peptide Complex for Firming and Wrinkle Reduction

INCI Name: Aqua, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Carbomer, Polysorbate 20, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin

AccessPEP 3000 is a high-performance, dual-peptide anti-aging active combining Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7. These matrikines signal the skin to repair and restructure its dermal matrix, stimulating collagen, elastin, and fibronectin to visibly reduce wrinkle depth and improve firmness. Ideal for serums, creams, and masks at 3–8%.

Solubility Notes:

Water-soluble; add to the water phase or during the cool-down phase of formulation (<40 °C).

Perfect For These Applications

Performance & Formulation Insights for AccessPEP 3000

How Matrikine Peptides Rebuild the Skin

AccessPEP 3000 leverages the power of matrikines—small, messenger peptides that act as signals for skin renewal. As skin ages, the natural breakdown of collagen and elastin accelerates, but the repair signals weaken. This complex introduces two key matrikines: Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1, which stimulates collagen and fibronectin synthesis, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, which helps reduce the inflammatory response that contributes to matrix degradation. Together, they create a powerful synergistic effect, signaling the skin to initiate a robust repair process. This action supports rebuilding of the extracellular matrix, leading to firmer, smoother, and more resilient skin from within.

Formulation Guidelines for Optimal Performance

AccessPEP 3000 is a user-friendly aqueous solution that is easy to incorporate into cosmetic formulations. It is fully water-soluble and should be added to the water phase or during the cool-down phase at temperatures below 40 °C (104 °F) to protect peptide integrity. The recommended usage level is 3% to 8%. It is stable within a broad pH range of 3.0–8.0, making it compatible with a wide variety of formulas, including those with acidic actives. AccessPEP 3000 works well with other anti-aging ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C derivatives, and niacinamide for comprehensive age-defense products.
