Why should you view this course?

Avoid creating costly peptide formulations that fail to deliver results! Many formulators struggle with selecting the right natural peptides and ensuring their stability and efficacy in anti-aging products. Without the proper method or knowledge, expensive peptides may not deliver the expected results, leading to financial losses and product inefficacy.

This course will provide you with actionable solutions to:

  1. Maintain the efficacy of natural peptides selected throughout the product's (serums, creams, and gels) shelf life.

  2. Ensure the right selection of natural peptides that reach their intended site of action for optimal anti-aging results.

  3. Reduce formulation errors and optimize your use of high-cost peptides, leading to more efficient product development.

Who should join this course?

  • Anti-aging product formulators looking to enhance their expertise in natural peptide-based anti-aging products.

  • R&D Formulation Scientists aiming to solve challenges around peptide stability, efficacy, and delivery.

  • Product Development Teams seeking to create high-performance anti-aging skincare products that align with consumer demand for natural ingredients.

  • Manufacturers looking for derivatization techniques for natural peptides to replace synthetic ingredients.
