Vialox Peptide Solution

Pentapeptide-3, already dissolved

Vialox Solution is the liquid form of Pentapeptide-3, sequence Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro-Ala, molecular weight 495.58 Da. The INCI is Pentapeptide-3 and the CAS is 135679-88-8. It ships as a clear to slightly hazy water-based liquid. Brands use it when the brief is softer-looking expression lines from repeated facial movement, such as forehead lines, frown lines and crow's feet. Keep the story cosmetic.

Not Argireline, not the powder

Argireline is Acetyl Hexapeptide-8. Vialox powder is the dry jar. Do not dissolve this liquid, since it is already in water. Other expression-line liquids, including SNAP-8, are in our peptide solutions.

Formulating with it

Phase and temperature

Add it to the water phase. Do not heat it and do not add it to the oil phase. In emulsions, add it after cooling, below 40 °C.

Packs

Packs start at 1 oz and go up through 4 oz, 8 oz, 16 oz, 32 oz and 1 gallon.

Level

The documented use level is 1 to 5 percent of the supplied liquid in leave-on products, starting at 2 percent. Do not dose the liquid as if it were pure powder.

Product types that suit it

Expression-line serums, spot serums, eye creams and light emulsions.

Pairing ideas

GHK-Cu, sodium hyaluronate and glycerin. Add each active separately and check clarity, odor and viscosity after each addition instead of premixing several actives in one beaker.

Example architecture

Water, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, Vialox solution at the documented level, a chelator and a preservative. Weigh the solution, not the peptide.

Claims

Describe skin where expression lines look softer with regular use. Keep claims cosmetic and tied to appearance. Any before-and-after statement needs a test on the finished product, not on the raw material.

Testing the finished product

Run a stability check on the finished product at room temperature, at 40 °C and in a fridge for several weeks, and watch color, odor, clarity, viscosity and pH. Check the product in its final pack too, since pumps, droppers and jars expose it to air differently. A preservative challenge test on the final product is the standard step before launch.

Lot handling and storage

Record appearance and pH on arrival, compare them with the CoA, and keep the CoA with your batch records so each finished batch can be traced to its lot. Store tightly closed, cool and away from light, and respect the shelf life on the CoA.

Labeling and documents

Write the INCI exactly as the CoA for your lot gives it, in the order the supplier lists it, and keep the CAS line the same as the CoA, including N/A or Mixture where that is what it says. Keep the CoA with your batch records. If your market needs an SDS or a full ingredient breakdown, ask for it before you scale so the paperwork matches the batch you buy.

Ordering

It is sold as a raw material for cosmetic formulation, not as a finished consumer product. Start with a small pack for bench trials and scale once your stability checks pass. It ships from Florida, usually within 1 to 2 business days, in the pack sizes shown above, and US shipping is free on orders of $50 or more.
