Product Description

Product Description

Acetyl Hexapeptide-1, also known as Melitane, is a high-purity hexapeptide active ingredient. Its molecular structure mimics natural signalling peptides within the human body, exhibiting outstanding biomimetic activity. Composed of six specific amino acids, this peptide efficiently participates in skin cell signalling pathways, regulating melanin production and distribution to help improve skin tone evenness and promote a healthy, radiant complexion.
Within the functional skincare sector, it is extensively incorporated into premium serums, daily emulsions, photoprotective formulations, and other functional products, progressively establishing itself as a pivotal active ingredient within peptide-based skincare systems. Its unique mechanism of action confers irreplaceable scientific value and market competitiveness within cosmetic formulations.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 Description

Product Characteristics

1. Stable Molecular Structure Following acetylation modification, melitane exhibits enhanced molecular stability, effectively resisting hydrolysis and degradation from external environments.
2. Bio-mimetic Activity Mimics the action mechanism of α-MSH, binding to the skin's MC1-R receptor to participate in pigment regulation and related cellular responses.
3. Formulation Compatibility 98% water-soluble, facilitating seamless incorporation into aqueous systems, emulsions, and serums across various functional skincare types.
4. High Safety Profile A non-oily, non-comedogenic ingredient with low sensitisation risk, demonstrating excellent skin tolerance for premium products.
Product Characteristics

Product Efficacy

Natural Pigment Regulation: Acts upon melanocytes within the hair follicle to stimulate melanin production, addressing the root cause of greying hair and restoring a natural shade.
Sunless Tanning & Tone Optimization: Induces natural bronze tones without UV exposure and regulates pigment distribution for a balanced, luminous complexion.
Repair & Anti-Ageing: Inhibits inflammatory mediators like IL-1α and activates DNA repair pathways, alleviating fine lines and wrinkles caused by photoaging.
Natural Sun Protection: Elevates skin tolerance to sunlight by increasing melanin content, reducing UV-induced oxidative stress and hyperpigmentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main difference between Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8?
They serve different functions: Hexapeptide-8 (Argireline) targets expression lines by inhibiting muscle contraction, while Hexapeptide-1 focuses on hair darkening, tanning, and cellular photoprotection.
How stable is Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 in cosmetic formulations?
It is highly stable and water-soluble. It is best incorporated during the final formulation stages and remains effective within a pH range of 4.0-7.0.
Is this ingredient suitable for Vegan and Clean Beauty products?
Yes. Our Acetyl Hexapeptide-1 is 100% chemically synthesized in the laboratory and contains no animal-derived components.
What makes this peptide superior to standard ingredients?
The specific acetylation modification enhances its biomimetic activity, allowing it to act more precisely within cellular signalling pathways compared to non-modified peptides.
Does this raw material comply with global cosmetic regulations?
Yes, it is a compliant peptide ingredient for international markets, including the EU, USA, and Asia. Full regulatory documentation like COA and MSDS is available.
Do you provide samples for R&D testing?
Yes, we offer flexible solutions from 1g R&D samples to bulk industrial orders to support your formulation validation and product development.
