SpecPed BT1P peptide Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 for hair and scalp care formulations
SpecPed BT1P with INCI Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 is used as a peptide active in formulations designed for hair and scalp care. The ingredient is applied in cosmetic systems where targeted interaction with hair structure and scalp condition is required, supporting consistent performance in regular use products.
Description
SpecPed BT1P is a peptide linked with a biotin derivative, designed to function within advanced cosmetic formulations. Its structure allows interaction with components associated with hair fiber condition and scalp balance.
The ingredient is used in water-based systems and is supplied in a form suitable for precise dosing. It can be incorporated as a standalone active or combined with other functional ingredients depending on formulation goals.
Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 is widely selected in the development of hair care products where controlled and consistent formulation behavior is required.
Where it is used
SpecPed BT1P is used in shampoos, scalp serums, lotions, ampoules, and leave-in hair treatments. It is included in formulations designed to support hair appearance and maintain scalp condition.
In professional cosmetology, it is applied in scalp care programs and specialized treatment products.
In trichology-focused products, it is used as part of advanced formulations.
In SPA and salon treatments, it is included in concentrated systems designed for structured hair care routines.
How it works
Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1 interacts with biological processes associated with the scalp and hair follicles. It supports mechanisms related to hair fiber structure and helps maintain the connection between hair and scalp.
The peptide contributes to improved distribution of active ingredients across the scalp surface, enhancing formulation efficiency.
It also supports the performance of other ingredients when used in combination within the same formulation.
Behavior in formulation
SpecPed BT1P is water-soluble and should be added to the aqueous phase or during the cooling stage below 40°C to preserve activity.
It is compatible with a wide range of water-soluble ingredients including niacinamide, panthenol, botanical extracts, and peptide complexes.
The ingredient remains stable within a pH range of 4.5–7.0, which is suitable for most hair and scalp care formulations.
Dosage
In serums and lotions, it is typically used at 0.02–0.1%.
In shampoos, it is applied at 0.01–0.05%.
In concentrated formulations, usage may reach up to 0.2%.
Recipe
Scalp serum with Biotinoyl Tripeptide-1
Ingredients:
Distilled water — 88 ml
Glycerin — 3 ml
SpecPed BT1P — 0.05 g
Panthenol — 2 g
Niacinamide — 2 g
Nettle extract — 3 ml
Preservative — 0.8 g
Process:
Combine distilled water and glycerin in the aqueous phase until a uniform base is formed. Allow the mixture to cool below 40°C.
Dissolve SpecPed BT1P separately in a small amount of water until fully clear, then add it to the main mixture along with panthenol and niacinamide.
Mix thoroughly until homogeneous, then add nettle extract and preservative. Adjust pH if required within the range of 4.5–7.0. Allow the formulation to stabilize before use or packaging.
