FunctionPeptide

What it is — Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8 (INCI: Palmitoyl Tripeptide-8) is a synthetic peptide joined to a fatty acid, used as a conditioning, signal-type ingredient.

What it does — It is included in formulas positioned around a calm, comfortable, well-conditioned surface. Descriptions here are cosmetic rather than medical.

Typical use — It appears in serums, essences and creams, often those aimed at sensitive or reactive-leaning skin, usually at low levels within a peptide blend.

Who it suits / good to know — Generally low-irritation and suitable for most skin types. Peptides are supporting players whose feel builds gradually with consistent use.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk: a cosmetic peptide with no notable irritation history at use levels. 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 risk - cosmetic peptide with no notable irritation history at use levels.
