Is Oligopeptide-70 natural?

Yes. Synthesized from standard fermentation-derived amino acids via peptide coupling; backbone entirely amino-acid derived.

INCI nameOligopeptide-70
FunctionAntioxidant · Chelating
FeedstockChemically synthesized from the listed amino acids (fermentation-derived)…

How we scored it

11 natural amino acids (incl. cysteine, histidine) joined by peptide bonds; synthesis 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

Chemically synthesized from the listed amino acids (fermentation-derived) via standard peptide-coupling chemistry. No alternative route is significant.

In plain English

A lab-made peptide built from amino acids, used as an antioxidant and chelator to help protect skin from damage.

CosIng definition: Oligopeptide-70 is the synthetic peptide containing 11 amino acids consisting of alanine, cysteine, glycine, histidine, lysine, proline and serine
