What the gurus are saying

This serum's notably tight film earns decidedly mixed reactions: the clean 1% copper peptide formula and fair $33 price point draw solid approval for its logical ingredient list and competitive value. However, the unexpected drying (a tight, squeaky film that stubbornly persisted even when layered under moisturizer) is a significant drawback. Those prone to dryness may want to patch-test first.

"The Remedy Copper Peptide Complex Advanced Firming Serum is about $33. It's a really lovely mid-range option from Dr. Mona Shah. It pairs that 1% copper peptide GHK-Cu with firming peptides and hyaluronic acid."
~Mixed
"I do think this is a well formulated product ingredient list wise, it doesn't have a lot of fluff, no fragrance, no exotic ingredients, no cash grab ingredients, and all the ingredients have a little bit of research behind them, and at thirty dollars it seems fairly priced compared to what I've paid for copper peptide serums before. That said, I was surprised at how not hydrating it is for me. On my face it immediately dries down into a very tight, squeaky clean film, it felt like I'd been rubbing an alcohol prep pad on my face for days, and layering bland moisturizers over it couldn't get the moisture feel back. I isolated it down to this specific product with testing. It's a good formula, it's got logical ingredients, it's fairly priced, but it's not one I'm going to buy for myself to use, and I don't want to get on here and say this is the best copper peptide serum I've ever used, because in reality it's absolutely not."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Peptides

Peptides are short protein fragments meant to signal repair. The evidence for them is thinner than for retinoids or vitamin C, and it varies a lot by the specific peptide, so the category is more promising than proven.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
