What Is Palmitoyl Dipeptide-10?
Palmitoyl Dipeptide-10 is a short-chain peptide designed to address hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. It works by interfering with the melanin synthesis pathway, helping to reduce the appearance of dark spots and discolouration.
The palmitoyl attachment enhances the peptide's ability to penetrate the skin barrier and reach melanocytes where pigment is produced. This makes it an effective component in brightening and tone-evening formulations.
