REVERSE THE SIGNS OF SKIN AGING
The Copper Peptide Serum is formulated with a potent dosage of GHK-CU Copper Peptide, plant stem cells, multi-vitamins, antioxidants, moisturizers, and skin firming amino acids aiming to collectively tighten, thicken, repair, recover, and reverse the signs of skin aging. These ingredients are known to:
Improve skin firmness, elasticity, and clarity
Tighten loose skin and reverses thinning of aged skin
Smooth rough skin for more even skin texture
Repair protective skin barrier proteins
Reduce fine lines, depth of wrinkles, and improves structure of aged skin
Reduce inflammation and free radical damage
Reduce photodamage, mottled hyperpigmentation, skin spots and lesions
Protect skin cells from UV radiation and stimulates wound healing
THE POWER OF COPPER PEPTIDES
Copper peptides (GHK-CU) are naturally occurring proteins in the body that are released to aid in tissue repair with cell-protective and cell-repairing properties.
A number of clinical studies established that GHK-CU stimulates the synthesis of collagen, production of selected glycosaminoglycans (like hyaluronic acid), and modulates matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).2
This regulation helps prevent both buildup of damaged proteins and excessive proteolysis (protein breakdown). All of this leads to skin regeneration and improved appearance of the skin.

INGREDIENTS BACKED BY SCIENCE
COPPER PEPTIDE
Known for its distinct blue color and to have multiple healthy biological actions in cell development, energy production, waste elimination, and wound healing.
UBIQUINONE (CoQ10)
A natural antioxidant that repairs sun-damaged skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promotes and maintains radiant skin.
R-LIPOIC ACID
The most active isomer of alpha-lipoic acid, which is a versatile antioxidant that improves skin texture and firmness, leading to more glowing skin.
ACETYL CARNITINE
An essential amino acid with hydrating benefits that boosts the skin cells’ energy production and regeneration process, leading to healthier and reduced visible signs of aging.
ADENINE
One of the four DNA nucleotides that can increase collagen synthesis and is utilized for its anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, soothing, repairing, and restoring benefits.

About Nature’s Path
The seed for Nature’s Path was planted way back in the 1930s when Arran Stephens was growing up on his family’s second-generation organic berry farm. Arran’s father taught him how to care for and nurture the soil, telling him to “always leave the earth better than you found it”. These words have been woven into the very fabric of Nature’s Path.

How does it work?
Explained by our cosmetic chemist,
Dr. Ann Lee
"The Copper Peptide Serum immediately begins by nourishing and protecting the mitochondrial process (energy production) and then moves swiftly to accelerate the growth of epidermal cells, which results in healthier skin and reduced wrinkles. Then a biomimetic peptide is tagged and it starts to boost collagen production and activate skin repair, while protecting the skin from environmental stressors."
