What is tripeptide-29?
Tripeptide-29 is the INCI name for glycyl-prolyl-hydroxyproline (Gly-Pro-Hyp), a three-amino-acid sequence that repeats throughout collagen. It is used in cosmetic formulation as a collagen-derived peptide, and laboratory studies have examined it in models of skin ageing caused by UV light.
