Myristoyl Pentapeptide 17 lipopeptide active for eyelash and eyebrow care formulations
Myristoyl Pentapeptide 17 is a synthetic lipopeptide consisting of a short peptide chain linked with a myristic fatty acid group. This structure improves compatibility with lipid and emulsion systems and enhances distribution within cosmetic formulations. The raw material typically appears as a white to cream powder with neutral odor. In aqueous systems it is commonly dispersed in glycerin or propanediol prior to incorporation. In emulsions it is added during the cooling phase to maintain peptide stability. The ingredient is suitable for industrial manufacturing due to predictable performance and compatibility with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients.
Properties and skin performance
In eyelash and eyebrow formulations it contributes to lightweight textures that distribute evenly across hair fibers. Gel and serum systems remain transparent or slightly opalescent depending on formulation design. Provides smooth application without tacky residue and maintains natural flexibility of lashes and brows.
Industry applications
Myristoyl Pentapeptide 17 is widely used in eyelash serums, eyebrow gels, lash conditioners, treatment mascaras and clear styling gels. The ingredient is applied in functional cosmetic lines focused on eyelash and brow care as well as eye area cosmetic formulations. Suitable for private label development and contract manufacturing thanks to stable peptide structure and scalable formulation compatibility.
Formula example
Purified water 520 ml
Glycerin 50 g
Carbomer 5 g
Panthenol 15 g
Myristoyl Pentapeptide 17 2 g
Hydrolyzed keratin 18 g
Triethanolamine 3 g
Preservative system 2 g
Carbomer is gradually dispersed into purified water under high shear mixing until fully hydrated and a uniform gel base forms. Myristoyl Pentapeptide 17 is pre blended with glycerin and incorporated into the gel phase under continuous mixing. Panthenol and hydrolyzed keratin are added and mixed until homogeneous. Triethanolamine is introduced to neutralize the carbomer and adjust pH to the appropriate range. Finally the preservative system is incorporated and the mixture is mixed until uniform. The result is a clear eyelash conditioning gel with stable viscosity and smooth texture.
Myristoyl Pentapeptide 17 is positioned for B2B manufacturers of eyelash and eyebrow cosmetic products. The ingredient supports formulation stability, industrial processing compatibility and reproducible texture in scalable and contract manufacturing environments.
