What they liked

  • Creamy gel texture applies smoothly
  • Safe to layer with other actives
  • Results visible within three weeks

What they flagged

  • Can pill under sunscreen or cause pilling
  • May cause breakouts in acne-prone skin
  • Silicone base incompatible with some routines

What the gurus are saying

The serum's silicone base gives it a thicker, lotiony feel that works well for dry or winter skin, but may pill under or over sunscreen, making it best suited for nighttime. Gurus praise it for helping with hydration, fine lines, and skin firmness, particularly on delicate areas like the neck. Those with silicone sensitivity or thinner-product preferences may want to patch-test first, though the concentration of peptides and growth factors earns strong marks for supporting skin repair and barrier health.

Top Pick: peptide serum for sensitive skin

Peptides Are Not Over! BEST PEPTIDE SERUMS 2024
"I recommend an encapsulated copper peptide which is going to help minimize the risk of that sensitivity on contact and in the long term still give you great results. The Theramid 3% Copper Peptide Serum is hands down the best peptide serum for sensitive skin. It's encapsulated so it's definitely sensitive skin friendly. It's also really easy to slot in your skincare routine because with things being encapsulated it means you can use it alongside any of your other actives with no problems whatsoever. It's actually a nice creamy consistency so it applies beautifully to the skin. It has a sky high concentration of those copper peptides, this packs an anti-aging punch and if you've got sensitive skin this could be your best friend. It's a great all-rounder for anyone out there no matter what your level of skin sensitivity."

COPPER PEPTIDES - This Serum Delivers 2X Firmer Skin (New Studies)
"I definitely think the results with this one were much more noticeable and came a lot quicker. I could definitely tell just from understanding and knowing my own skin over many years this was definitely delivering for the price point. I definitely think it streaks ahead of what you're getting in terms of formulation than the ordinary and that's definitely reflected in the results. I started to notice the results after about 3 weeks, that's a pretty quick turnaround for a copper peptide serum. The feel on the skin, this is a luxury product without necessarily having a luxury price point. Firmer, smoother, extra collagen, it was doing all of that. For the blend of peptides, the extra copper peptide concentration and the beautiful finish, this for me is like a ding-ding-ding Holy Grail, 10 out of 10 product. I couldn't fault it."

"It's from Theramid, it is their copper peptide serum. It has 3% copper peptides and a blend of peptides at 13%. I went back and forth on this one. I love copper peptides, I love a peptide serum, I love a peptide product, so I was really curious about this one. At first I was really into it. It has this really rich blue tone to it, it has a gel cream texture to it, but over time I just felt like that texture was weird to incorporate into my skincare routine. Like it wasn't a typical serum step but it also wasn't a moisturizer. It just didn't fit into my skincare routine well, but I enjoyed it enough to finish it."

Theramid Copper Peptide Serum Review - Anti-Aging 3% Pure Copper Peptides Treatment
"In terms of performance, I really love the serum. The fact that I've already repurchased it says something right off the bat. I feel like it's helping my skin barrier a lot, especially with the transition from summer to fall to winter. I think it's helped with that. Typically my skin gets more flaky, more red, and I think this has helped the transition. I also find myself applying this to small wounds like a little scratch here on my wrist, and it seems to help it heal faster. It seems to plump up my skin and firm my skin. My hand is a good example, it just feels nice and smooth and soft. It definitely has helped with anti-aging, firming skin, brightening skin, soothing skin. The other nice thing is it's friendly for all skin types, including sensitive, oily, dry, combo."

Ranking My Favorite Copper Peptide Serums & What Benefits Copper Peptides Have Your Skin
"This one has a silicone base in it with several different silicone ingredients, so instead of having a watery texture like all these have, it has more of a lotiony texture to it. If your skin does not like thicker products or silicones, that's something to be aware of. Personally, I find this one to be really nice to use during the winter when my skin gets a little dry. It uses 3% copper peptide and also contains several epidermal growth factors as well as fibroblast growth factor peptides. It's nice for nighttime use. Personally, I don't use this one during the daytime because I found with some of the silicone ingredients in here, it has a tendency to either peel up under my sunscreen or make my sunscreen peel up over it. So I will use this typically at nighttime because of that. It's fragrance-free. In my opinion, I would say this one's a great one for people with dry skin or a damaged skin barrier."

"This is a newer product to me, up until probably a month ago, and that's the Theramid 3% Copper Peptide Serum. I'd been eyeing it up for some time. It's 3% copper peptides, typically most products are 1 to 2%, so 3% is getting higher. It was out of stock for so long and finally came into stock. I picked it up and ordered it right when I saw it, and I'm happy with it. They just had their Black Friday sale at 30% off, and I went and picked up another bottle of the super sized version of it. Really nice moisturizer serum texture. I love copper peptides."

Copper Peptide Versus🆚 The Ordinary Multi Peptide + Copper Peptides VS Theramid Copper Peptide Serum
"I really like using this one. It helps with wrinkles, firming up skin. The most benefits I notice is my neck, which gets saggy and crepey skin, and it helps lock hydration in. I wish this one contained argireline or snap-8 to help with some of those Botox-in-a-bottle type wrinkles. But overall, it's very nice. It's very silky. I really like this one during the winter when my skin needs a little bit extra hydration. It's very beneficial for skin and wound healing, especially. I love that I can use this one with microneedling to help fade the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. I appreciate the combination of the additional peptides they threw in here and amino acids. It's really great for your skin. I can tell a difference on my skin when I use this. It's a game changer."
