How we scored it

Peptide assembled from natural amino acids (alanine, leucine, lysine, phenylalanine) via chemical synthesis; coupling reagents leave no mass. 100% natural.
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

Chemically synthesised by coupling standard amino acids, alanine, leucine, lysine and phenylalanine, into a 15-unit chain. The amino acid building blocks are natural-origin; synthesis reagents leave no mass in the product.

In plain English

A small peptide built from natural amino acids, assembled in a lab from building blocks that come from fermentation or protein sources. Used in skincare for its skin-conditioning and antimicrobial, deodorant properties.

CosIng definition: Alanine, 15-unit synthetic peptide with leucine, lysine, and phenylalanine
