Myristoyl Hexapeptide-16

Myristoyl Hexapeptide-16 is a state-of-the-art lipopeptide specifically engineered to promote the growth of eyelashes and eyebrows. Comprising six amino acids with a myristoyl (C14) fatty acid chain covalently attached to the N-terminus, this innovative bioactive molecule combines the signaling power of a peptide with the enhanced skin penetration provided by lipid conjugation. Myristoyl Hexapeptide-16 works by activating the keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) signaling pathway in the hair follicle, thereby stimulating the proliferation of keratinocytes and increasing the production of keratin — the primary structural protein in hair. This dual-action mechanism not only promotes longer, thicker, and denser lashes and brows but also strengthens their structural integrity, making it a cornerstone ingredient in premium eye care and lash enhancement formulations.
