Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 is a synthetic peptide that helps repair visible skin damage and strengthen skin’s underlying supportive elements. It is categorized as a “messenger peptide” because of its ability to “tell” skin how to look better, specifically regarding reducing signs of sun damage like wrinkles and rough texture. It is one of the key ingredients in The Ordinary Buffet serum. Palmitoyl tripeptide-1 is also known as Pal-GHK and palmitoyl oligopeptide.
