Formula IngredientPeptideINCI: Nicotiana Benthamiana Hexapeptide-40 sh-Polypeptide-76
A recombinant fusion peptide produced via plant biotechnology using Nicotiana benthamiana. The sh-Polypeptide-76 component is a bioengineered analogue of human transforming growth factor beta-2 (TGF-beta2). It is designed to support skin conditioning, renewal, and anti-ageing processes through growth factor signalling pathways.

No significant irritation concerns documented at cosmetic-use concentrations. As a peptide used at very low concentrations, it is generally well tolerated. No EU CosIng Annex II or III restrictions apply. CosIng function listed as skin conditioning.
This peptide does not increase photosensitivity. No sun protection precautions are required beyond normal daily use.
MANUAL REVIEW: Limited specific safety data available for use during pregnancy. As a growth factor analogue (TGF-beta2), a precautionary approach is recommended. Consult a healthcare provider before use during pregnancy.
