The hero ingredient
The science of copper peptides.
One molecule runs through everything we make. Here's what copper peptides are, why your skin responds to them, and how we build them into a daily ritual, in plain language.
What they are
Copper peptides are short chains of amino acids bound to a copper ion. The best-known is GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-1), a naturally occurring complex and one of the most studied actives in modern skincare.
Why skin loves them
In cosmetic use, copper peptides are valued for supporting the look of firm, smooth, resilient skin, and they pair beautifully with hydrators, antioxidants, and barrier lipids.
How we formulate
Every Zoe Clinique formula places copper peptides at a meaningful point in the ingredient list, in small batches, for external daily use. Clean labelling, considered actives, no inflated claims.
What's inside
The actives we trust.
Copper peptides do their best work in good company. These are the supporting players you'll find across the line.

- Our hero active. A copper-bound tripeptide prized in skincare for supporting the look of firmness, smoothness, and renewal.
- Hyaluronic Acid
- A humectant that draws water into the skin for immediate, cushioned hydration and a plumper-looking surface.
- Polyglutamic Acid
- A next-generation humectant that holds even more moisture than hyaluronic acid, for a lasting dewy finish.
- Rose Meristem Exosomes
- Plant-derived vesicles from Rosa Damascena, used in advanced formulas to support a refreshed, renewed appearance.
- Squalane
- A lightweight, skin-identical emollient that softens and seals in moisture without any heaviness.
