Active ingredient
sh-Oligopeptide-9
sh-Oligopeptide-9 is a recombinant human oligopeptide produced synthetically to be identical to an endogenous protein sequence. EU CosIng and INCI Beauty databases list its cosmetic functions as humectant, skin conditioning, and skin protecting. It appears in multi-factor growth factor cream formulas alongside sh-Decapeptide-7, sh-Octapeptide-4, sh-Pentapeptide-19, and sh-Polypeptide-7 as part of an integrated skin rejuvenation complex.

Benefits
- ✓Recombinant human oligopeptide that functions as a skin-conditioning active, supporting moisture retention and surface skin texture in multi-factor growth factor complexes
- ✓Humectant properties help draw water into the skin, complementing the structural remodeling activity of co-formulated signal peptides and growth factors
- ✓Used as part of a growth factor cocktail in premium K-beauty creams targeting skin rejuvenation, skin softness, and overall luminosity
Watch for
- ⚠As with other recombinant human peptides, theoretical growth factor concern in specific disease contexts; not demonstrated as a risk at cosmetic concentrations
Compatibility
✓ Works well with
