Is Decapeptide-10 natural?

Yes. All seven amino acids are fermentation/hydrolysate products; coupling chemistry introduces no non-natural atoms.

INCI nameDecapeptide-10
FunctionSkin Conditioning
FeedstockMade via solid-phase synthesis from fermentation-derived amino acids.…

How we scored it

Peptide from natural amino acids (Gly, His, Lys, Ser, Thr, Trp, Tyr); reagents leave no mass. 1.0.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.

Where it comes from

Made via solid-phase synthesis from fermentation-derived amino acids. No alternate route changes this.

In plain English

A lab-assembled peptide made from natural amino acids, used as a skin-conditioning ingredient. All of its building blocks come from fermentation.

CosIng definition: Decapeptide-10 is a synthetic peptide consisting of glycine, histidine, lysine, serine, threonine, tryptophan and tyrosine
