GHK-CU Cream Ideas?

[Peptide_J]

Anyone have any experiences mixing GHK-CU with different creams. I have some powder coming and want to play around with a few different things. Plan on doing the classic hyaluronic acid serum mix. Wanted to get some thoughts on mixing with some good creams. Hoping someone has some thoughts or experiences. I have seen that you can use Neutrogena Hydro Boost Cream, but it is a little more on the spendy side. Was thinking of maybe trying it with something like CeraVe, Aquaphor, or even something real cheap like Fruit of the Earth Vitamin E Cream. I know you have to be careful of pH levels.

Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated. Thanks! My thinking is I would use the Syrum more on face/scalp and the creams on the rest of the body to spread it a little easier, but maybe the syrum works well across the board.

There is a thread here try searching and also on reddit under skincare..
I have been adding it to creams. Some people only recommend using the hydroboost lines
but I have added to the palmers blends. The one in the round bottom tub is especially great.
I partially recon the powder with water then I add that to the cream and mix well.
I also mix it into hyalaurnic serum, the ones from Ordinary work well.
you can search for the correct ratios, sorry I dont remember rn and Im on my way out the door.

Appreciate the reply. Been reading up a fair bit on here and didn't see much on creams specifically. Going to look into the ones you suggested. Thanks!

I highly recommend not adding it to water prior to mixing into a body product. Anytime you add water to a product it allows bacterial growth. Yes, they have preservatives added. Those preservative percentages are calculated for the specific ingredient ratios. Adding water will cause the preservative not to work at a higher bacterial load.

FYI, L'Oréal has released a Cerave cream containing HGHK.

Do you mean CeraVe Hydrating Hyaluronic Acid Water Gel?

I had made a GHK-cu serum that I did not enjoy using on my face (it felt sticky and well...blue). I dumped it into some lotion I had laying around and I love it! I actually like the lotion a lot more now than I did previously! I think as long as you check the lotion ingredient list for interactions with the GHK-cu using Google or whatever, there are probably a lot of options. I attached a picture of the end result lotion (its about two weeks old and has been stored in the fridge) and the lotion ingredients for this particular one. (Edited to fix typos)

I don't remember precisely. I just spotted it at my favorite pharmacy last week.
