A private label peptide serum is a finished topical you sell under your own brand, formulated around cosmetic peptide actives that improve the look of fine lines and firmness. Peptide Foundry formulates, fills, and labels these serums to order, leading with the Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 complex, commonly known as Matrixyl 3000, alongside actives such as Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 and Acetyl Hexapeptide-8.
Because cosmetic peptides work at trace levels, a small active load carries a finished serum, which keeps per-unit cost workable at a 500-unit MOQ. Every batch is HPLC-verified and ships with a Certificate of Analysis, and a priced quote returns within 48 hours.
Lead active
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 with Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7
Our flagship serum is built on the Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 complex, the matrikine pairing commonly known by the trademark Matrixyl 3000. We formulate and label it by its INCI names, so your product carries no other company's mark.
In a manufacturer study, Croda reported anti-wrinkle efficacy for this complex equivalent to an age gain of up to 5.5 years after two months of use. We present that for what it is, a measure of the appearance of skin over time, and never as a change to collagen or any function of the body.
Manufacturer study (Croda). The figure describes the measured appearance of skin, not a physiological effect.
Active library
A matrikine and expression-line toolkit
Beyond the lead complex, we formulate with the cosmetic peptide actives brands ask for by name, always declared by INCI. Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, the active commonly known as Matrixyl, improved the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles at just 3 parts per million in a 12-week placebo-controlled study of 93 women. Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, commonly known as Argireline, is the go-to for the look of expression lines around the eyes and forehead.
These can be blended into a single serum or split across a range, with hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and antioxidant support built to your brief.

Claims
Appearance language, by design
The FDA line between a cosmetic and a drug is simple: a cosmetic may beautify or improve appearance, but the moment it claims to affect the structure or a function of the body it becomes a drug. Peptide serums are efficacious and marketable inside that line, so our copy stays on the look of skin: the appearance of fine lines, the look of firmness, a smoother-looking surface.
We do not write, and we will steer you away from, claims that a serum boosts collagen production, works like a muscle relaxer, or repairs skin. Those phrasings turn a cosmetic into an unapproved drug and put your brand in front of the regulator. Serums are made to ISO 22716 cosmetic GMP standards, and under MoCRA the facility is registered and each product listed.
For external use only. All claims are appearance-based cosmetic claims.
Peptide serum questions
Which peptide is best for an anti-aging serum?
For the appearance of fine lines and firmness, the Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 with Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 complex is the most requested lead active, often paired with Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4. For the look of expression lines, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is the standard. The right choice depends on the appearance benefit your brand is positioning around.
Can you formulate with Matrixyl or Argireline?
Yes, declared by their INCI names. Matrixyl 3000 is Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 with Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7, Matrixyl is Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, and Argireline is Acetyl Hexapeptide-8. We reference the trademarks only as commonly-known-as mentions and label with the INCI, so your product does not use another company's mark.
What claims can I make on a peptide serum?
Appearance claims only: improves the appearance of fine lines, supports the look of firmer skin, a smoother-looking surface. Claims that a serum boosts collagen production or relaxes muscles are drug claims and are off the table, because they reclassify a cosmetic as an unapproved drug.
What is the MOQ and packaging for serums?
Minimum order is 500 units per SKU. Serums fill into glass dropper bottles or airless pumps, with your label and secondary packaging. Samples are $150 and produced in 10 to 14 days.
Do serums come with testing documentation?
Yes. Every batch is HPLC-verified and ships with a Certificate of Analysis, and the actives are declared by INCI for a compliant ingredient list.
