Peptide Renewal Serum

Three families of peptide, each at the level its maker actually tested, in a light aqueous serum that sinks in before you have finished your coffee. Verglas is the clear ice that forms when rain meets a frozen surface: thin, glassy, stronger than it looks. That is the idea.

What is in it, and how much

Active	Level	Why it is there
Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu)	1.0% pure basis	Carrier peptide. Supports the look of firmness and density. Literature-backed rather than supplier-tested, so it is not the claim we hang the serum on.
Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 + Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 (Matrixyl 3000)	3% of supplier blend	Signal peptides. In Sederma's 2-month study on 24 women, wrinkle depth and volume fell about 20%.
Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 (Argireline)	5% solution	Neuro-peptide. Softens the look of expression lines. Lubrizol reports visible change in 7 days.
Niacinamide	4%	Evens tone, supports the barrier, keeps oil in check. Dosed where the evidence is.
Sodium Hyaluronate (3 weights)	0.5%	Surface and deeper hydration so the peptides land on comfortable skin.
Panthenol	1%	Soothing. Keeps the formula gentle enough for daily use.

How to use

Morning and night on clean, dry skin. Three to four drops, pressed in, not rubbed. Follow with Snowline or your usual moisturiser, and SPF in the morning. Copper peptides and strong exfoliating acids do not love each other; keep them to different times of day.

What to expect, and when

Week 1: softer, more comfortable skin.

Cosmetic product. Improves how skin looks and feels. Does not treat, cure or prevent any condition.

Questions people ask

Will it sting?

No. There is no fragrance, no drying alcohol and no exfoliating acid in Verglas. It is designed for daily use on most skin types, including sensitive.

Why is it blue?

Copper Tripeptide-1 is naturally blue. A pale or colourless "copper peptide" serum usually means very little copper peptide.

When will I see something?

Softer skin in the first week, smoother texture at around four weeks, a firmer feel by eight. Skin renews on a schedule and so do results.

Can I use it with retinol?

Yes, on alternate nights or Verglas in the morning and retinol at night.
