Hi All,
I would like to try GHK-Cu raw powder topically, mixing with DIY serum or cream.
I wonder if someone is currently using, how is the best way to use it, if it is worthy the benefit, how much it will cost the montly usage and where I could buy.

Thanks
 
Hi all,
I bought from a chinese company named YTBIO that produces raw powder cosmetic grade. I payed 50€ x 10g + shipment.
I bouth from amazon basic cream as shown in the picture, that is specific to mix with cupper peptides.

I will prepare the cream in the next days, then I will start using it, hopefully with good result🙂

Is there any particular reason you prefer using topical over injection?

That at least LOOKS like the real deal and the pricing isn't unreasonable.

The only reason to buy from a grey source on here is that it's more likely to have a COA or some group testing. There is A LOT of fake GHK-Cu cosmetic out there. Anything on AliEx etc is most likely garbage. Also, note that GHK/AHK powder both degrade pretty quickly in light/moisture/heat so keep it dry in the fridge and you're good for a few months!

Once you mix it with serum it'll drop 20-30% potency in a month refrigerated. That's probably OK, because at 3% (1gr/30ml) you probably have 2-10x what your skin can absorb. Definitely test it somewhere hidden first to make sure you don't have a reaction. You don't want to look like scar face at work for a week.
 
I just saw one that was 10 grams for $70. Is that the lowest price you can get on that powder?
Besides buying a couple hundred grams with a dealer on Echemi, I mean.
That's a good deal, if it's not too old/degraded. Unless someone you trust is testing it, you don't really know what you're getting. Most of the grey vendors have an incentive not to screw up because people will test and post somewhere. Some random chems dealer with a "great" price might as well sell you the old mattress with bedbugs, cuz "what you gonna do?", you're never buying from them again anyway.

If it's not ~$10/gr (or you're buying a kilo direct from a manufacturer) you're probably being ripped off.

I am already using GHK-Cu as part of a GLOW blend cycle that I do every 3 months.
Because I already lost 15Kg and I am going to loose at least other 20Kg, I would like to avoid to have loose skin, so I heard that the topical use of GHK-Cu can be effective because it will be addressed to the skin that you want to preserve from loosing.

Of course I have no idea if it will be effective, but I want to give it a try.

Ah I see. Well I am very interested in your experiment. I know some people use microneedling with GHKU-Cu, maybe that's something you'd like to combine with your cream.

Good luck!

Yes, I know the risk buying from aliexpress or similar source, the vendor I bought from, was suggested from another user in a groupbuy TG forum, the vendor provided the COA of the powder and appered to be professional and serious, of course I cannot be 100% sure that what I bought is what I was looking for and not garbage. I can tell you some more after I will use it.

Regarding the recipe I am going to use a cream with 1% concentration as first attenpt, and in case I will increase to 2% in next preparation.
I know the cupper peptide are very sensitive and could be degradated by exposing to light or inappropiated storage.


I will keep you update about the result🤞

Here’s what I am doing with the Ghk-Cu.
I bought a 10g vial from Uther. Bought 2fl oz. and refills of Hyaluronic Acid serum on Amazon. I mixed 1gm to 2fl oz and this is what I got. It feels good on inflamed injection sites. I’m using it on my face and head but haven’t been using it long enough for a full report.

planning to mix my newly acquired raw powder Ghk/cu into a 30ml bottle of the ordinary serum after watching a TikTok video months ago. Will you guys recommend to do that?

Here is a protocol that has been floating around reddit for a long time, I haven't used it yet;

I knew that, I prepared both the serum as for the anela protocol and the cream as I wrote in the previus post.
I am using both, I prefer the cream, it is very easy to use, the serum is to much liquid and seems to slip along the skin.

In my opinion serum is better only for microneedling use

In the picture you can see the prepared cream (1% concentration) and a bottle of Matrixyl 3000, that I wll add to the next cream preparation (2% GHK-Cu + 3% matrixyl)

Would someone please be so kind and explain to me the difference between the cosmetic grade powder and the one for subcutaneous use?
Someone already asked if one can use the peptide powder for topical application as well and the answer was it's not recommended because of the price. Is that the only reason?

The primary differences between cosmetic-grade and subcutaneous-use (injectable/medical-grade) powders are purity, sterility, and regulatory oversight. While cosmetic powders are designed for surface application, subcutaneous powders must meet much stricter pharmaceutical standards to be safely injected into living tissue.

Cosmetic needs to be 70% pure minimum while research grade must be 99.9% pure (USP/pharmaceutical standard).

Anyway, since it comes from China, cosmetic or pharma grade, they always say it's 99.9% pure. It's up to you to believe and/or send to Janoshik or the other one for testing. 🙂

Personally, I would go for popular sources, endorsed by many.

You can use the pharma grade for topical if you want - same molecules, either freeze dried powder or granule form, same shit.

You can pick up a vial to try from Allthingspeptides.com I think it was $14?
or GYC has a kit of 10 in their US warehouse. 80$
I have been mixing it with some bac water then mixing that into a tub of lotion. (Ive been told its is water soluble, so people recommend creams with water with names that start with Hydra.
The Palmers coco butter is wonderful stuff, I used that and it does wonders for my skin There are people who shared protocals and proportions on Reddit under skin care subs.

An alternative to, or good addition to GHK-CU is taking a collagen peptide powder daily, I add it to my protein drink. Also a good vitamin E cream applied to the skin. Hint: I cream with 10 IU of vitamin E can claim that it is a vitamin E cream. Look for the jars that tell you how much vitamin is in it. Typically something like 25,000 IU or more.
