"I also really like The Ordinary Copper Peptide. That's the one I generally use the most because it's the most affordable, but at the end of the day it doesn't matter what Copper Peptide serum you're using, pair it up with a growth factor serum."
Approved
"Since 2022 when in 2025 in the second half of 2025 this product has been my ride and die."
Translated from the guru's original language.
All 5 takes from Nipun Kapur
How To Get Glass Skin | The Morning Routine For Anti Aging
"I've tried The Ordinary and I've tried the Biosans and I do like the Biosans a little bit better. You need like two dropper fulls so I'm gonna finish this up in a month or so. [...] Copper Peptide works as a booster ingredient, and yes, vitamin C [...] is great for enhancing collagen but it's not the same as a Copper Peptide. I'm 37 years old, so if you're in your 20s then you may not need this, but if you're my age or older trust me Copper Peptide is going to be really good for you."

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.
