Description
Our copper peptide cream, Copper Peptide Capsule Cream, is a 50mL face cream with copper peptides held in small capsules. The capsules break open as you rub the cream in, so the actives stay protected in the jar until you use them. It’s made for skin that’s losing firmness and feels dry. Copper Peptide Capsule Cream 50mL is in stock at $39.00.
What’s in Copper Peptide Capsule Cream 50mL
GHK-Cu (copper tripeptide-1) is the three-amino-acid peptide glycine-histidine-lysine bound to a copper ion. Loren Pickart first isolated it from human plasma in 1973, and it’s one of the most studied peptides in skin care, mostly in creams tested for firmness and fine lines.
Hyaluronic acid holds a lot of water for its weight. The multi-molecular version mixes chain lengths: the long chains sit on the surface and slow water loss, and the shorter ones get into the upper layers of the skin.
The skin-replenishing lipids help refill the oily mortar between surface skin cells, which is what keeps water in and irritants out.

Copper peptide cream directions
Use it as the last step of your evening routine on clean skin, and in the morning under sunscreen if you like. Take a small amount, warm it between your fingertips and press it in until the capsules have melted.
Before the first full use, try a small amount on the inside of your wrist and leave it for a day. Skip the product if it gets red or itchy.
Who should use copper peptide cream
This cream suits dry and mature skin that wants hydration and firmness from the same product. If you already use a copper peptide serum, you can skip it and use this instead, since it has both the peptide and the moisturizer.
Capsule creams look different from regular moisturizers. You’ll see small beads in the base. They’re there on purpose: the copper peptides are sealed inside, which keeps them away from air and light until you need them.
Copper peptides and strong acids don’t mix well. If you use a vitamin C serum or AHA toner, put them on in the morning and this cream at night.
Where copper peptide cream fits in your routine
A cream is the last step before sunscreen in the morning and the last step at night. It seals in whatever serums went on before it. If you use a retinoid or an exfoliating acid, put it on first, let it dry for a few minutes, then use the cream on top to cut down on dryness.
Copper peptide cream results and timing
Skin feels softer and more hydrated within the first week. Firmness and fine lines take longer, usually eight to twelve weeks of daily use, since collagen builds slowly. Use it every day; skipping days slows it down.
Getting the most from copper peptide cream
A few things that hold people back:
- Using too much. A pea-sized amount for the face is enough, and more just sits on the surface.
- Putting it on before serums. Thin layers go first and the cream goes on top.
- Giving up after two weeks. Firmness changes take two to three months.
