Performance notes
Copper tripeptide-1 and signal peptides are ingredients often included in serums aimed at supporting the skin's natural firmness and resilience, while vitamin E contributes antioxidant support. Tea tree oil is included for its reputation in supporting skin clarity, though it is a stronger-smelling essential oil that some users find more noticeable than plant oils like rosehip or jojoba.
What buyers say
A 4.6 star average from 452 reviews suggests most buyers are happy with how this serum performs, particularly for people seeking a tea tree based option with added peptides. The review count is healthy but still smaller than the biggest sellers in the facial oil space.

Frequently asked questions
Is this serum safe for sensitive skin?
It is labeled hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic, but it does contain tea tree essential oil, which can be irritating for some very reactive or sensitive skin types. A patch test on the inner arm before facial use is a sensible first step.
What do copper tripeptide-1 and signal peptides do?
These are peptide ingredients commonly used in serums to help support the skin's look of firmness and resilience over time. They are typically included alongside antioxidants like vitamin E for a more complete supporting role in a routine.
Is this a vegan skincare product?
Yes, the brand states the formula is vegan and cruelty-free, which makes it an option for shoppers looking to avoid animal-derived ingredients in their skincare.
