Collaxyl

A collagen-sequence peptide

Collaxyl is a cosmetic solution of Hexapeptide-9, a six-amino-acid peptide whose sequence is drawn from a repeating motif in collagen. It is used in firming and elasticity leave-on products: serums, creams and eye-contour care for skin that looks less firm. The catalog lists CAS 1228371-11-6 for this solution; confirm the full vehicle INCI on the CoA for each lot.

Solution or powder?

The catalog also carries Hexapeptide-9 Powder. The two listings show different CAS numbers in our records, so check the CoA of each before you file regulatory documents. The solution is ready to add; the powder suits labs that prepare their own stock solution. Do not swap them at the same percentage, because the active content differs.

Formulating with Collaxyl

Process

Add the solution in the water phase during cool-down, below 40 °C, and mix gently. Avoid holding the batch hot after addition.

Bases

Firming serums, rich creams and eye creams are typical. In emulsions, add after cooling. Record pH, clarity and viscosity before and after addition. Take the use level from the supplier documentation for your lot.

Pairing ideas

Hexapeptide-9 is often combined with a matrikine such as Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1 + Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 Liquid or with Collagen-related tripeptides for a layered "collagen story" serum. Hyaluronic acid adds a plump-looking finish. Add each peptide separately in cool-down.

Example: collagen-story serum architecture

A collagen-themed serum might combine water, glycerin, a light polymer, Collaxyl, a second firming peptide, and hyaluronic acid, with a preservative validated for the whole formula. Exact levels come from the supplier documentation. A clear, slightly viscous texture and a dropper bottle suit the format.

Claims

Keep claims cosmetic: firmer-looking, more elastic-feeling, smoother skin. Avoid stating that the product adds or rebuilds collagen in the skin unless supplier cosmetic test data supports that wording.

Stability and storage

Run stability at room temperature and 40 °C in the final packaging. Store tightly closed, cool and away from light, and refrigerate opened material where practical. Keep the CoA with your batch records.

Hexapeptide-9 in the catalog

Besides Collaxyl and the Hexapeptide-9 powder, the catalog carries other collagen-story peptides such as Tripeptide-29 and Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5. Each has its own INCI, sequence and documentation. A brand can build a collagen-themed range by giving each product a different peptide, which keeps the labels distinct and the story consistent.

Lot documentation

Record appearance and pH on arrival and compare them with the CoA. Because our records show different CAS numbers for the solution and the powder, keep the CoA of the exact listing you used with your regulatory file, and use the CAS it states.
