Functionconditioning agent

What it is — Palmitoyl Isoleucine (INCI: Palmitoyl Isoleucine) is a lipopeptide, an amino acid (isoleucine) joined to a fatty acid, used as a skin-conditioning ingredient.

What it does — It is included to help condition the skin and support a smooth, comfortable surface feel. Descriptions here are cosmetic rather than medical.

Typical use — It appears in serums, essences, creams and eye products, usually at low levels within a conditioning or peptide blend.

Who it suits / good to know — Generally low-irritation and suitable for most skin types. It is a supporting ingredient whose feel builds with consistent use rather than a quick fix.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk: a low-hazard conditioning ingredient. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.

Why we grade it Low: Low-hazard conditioning ingredient.
