When will I see results?
Skin feels hydrated and comfortable from the first use. For the look of fine lines, firmness and texture, give it 6–8 weeks of consistent twice-daily use. Everyone's skin is different, so results vary.
Sensitive skin & patch testing
Sensitive skin & patch testing
Both formulas include soothing ingredients such as centella and allantoin, but every skin is different. Patch test behind the ear or on the inner forearm for 24 hours, then start once a day. Pregnant or breastfeeding? Check with your doctor first. For external use only.
How do I layer it with other actives?
How do I layer it with other actives?
Retinol: yes, at night. Apply the serum first, then your retinoid, or alternate nights if your skin is sensitive.
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) and strong AHA/BHA acids: use them at a different time of day from copper peptides, e.g. vitamin C in the morning and copper at night.
SPF: always the last step every morning.

Full details & ingredients (INCI)
A 3.0% copper peptide serum for skin that looks smoother, firmer and more even, with a natural azure-blue colour that comes straight from the active.
The Copper Peptide Multi-Active Serum is the core of the Azure Clinical routine. A 3.0% Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) complex is paired with 1.0% Niacinamide, a five-peptide micro-complex and soothing botanicals in a lightweight, fast-absorbing gel-serum.
What it does
- Visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines and micro-lines with consistent use
- Helps skin look firmer, smoother and more refined
- Supports the skin's moisture barrier and helps optimise hydration
- Helps skin look more even and refreshed
- Comforts and softens skin, without a heavy or sticky finish
Key ingredients
- Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu) complex, 3.0%: the blue copper peptide. Conditions the skin and is the source of the serum's natural azure colour.
- Niacinamide, 1.0%: vitamin B3. Helps skin look more even and supports the barrier.
- Peptide micro-complex: Tetrapeptide-4, Hexapeptide-9, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 and Tripeptide-2, chosen to work alongside GHK-Cu on the look of smoothness and firmness.
- Centella Asiatica Extract and Avena Sativa (Oat) Peptide: soothing botanicals that help skin feel calm and comfortable.
- Hydrolyzed Sodium Hyaluronate and Panthenol: humectants that draw in and hold moisture for a plumper-looking finish.
How to use
- Morning and night, cleanse and pat skin dry.
- Dispense 3–4 drops into your fingertips and press into face and neck. Avoid the eye area.
- Follow with moisturiser. In the evening, seal with the Squalane + Copper Barrier Recovery Cream.
- In the morning, finish with SPF 30+ sunscreen.
Layering note: use strong exfoliating acids (AHA/BHA) and L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) at a different time of day from this serum, for example vitamin C in the morning and copper peptides at night.
One 30 ml bottle lasts approximately two months at 4 drops twice a day.
Who it's for
Adults who want a focused, science-first serum for the look of fine lines, firmness and texture. Suits normal, dry, combination and oily skin. If your skin is sensitive, patch test first and start once a day.
Why it's blue
Copper peptides are naturally blue. The colour of this serum is the active ingredient, not a dye. A slight variation in shade between batches is normal.

Full disclosure · INCI
What's inside
Every ingredient in this formula, what it does, and how much.
| # | Ingredient | What it does | Why this amount | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Aqua (Water)Base | Carries every other ingredient and gives the serum its light, fast-absorbing feel. | A high water base keeps the texture weightless so 3–4 drops spread over face and neck, and lets the water-soluble actives dissolve fully. | ~87% |
| 02 | GlycerinHumectant | Draws water into the upper layers of skin for a plumper, hydrated look. | Glycerin works across roughly 3–10%. At 5% it hydrates well without the sticky finish higher levels can leave. | 5.0% |
| 03 | Copper Tripeptide-1Hero active | GHK-Cu, the blue copper peptide. Conditions skin so it looks smoother, firmer and more refined. It is also the source of the deep blue colour. | Set at 3.0% so the copper peptide leads the formula rather than sitting as a trace ingredient, at a level comfortable for twice-daily use. The deep blue is your visual cue that it's there. | 3.0% |
| 04 | Butylene GlycolHumectant · solvent | Helps the actives dissolve evenly and spread across skin, and adds hydration. | Around 2% is enough to keep the peptides and botanicals evenly dissolved and improve slip, without making the serum feel heavy. | 2.0% |
| 05 | NiacinamideActive | Vitamin B3. Helps skin tone look more even and supports the skin barrier. | Kept at a gentle 1% so it can be used morning and night alongside copper peptides. Higher strengths (5–10%) are more likely to cause flushing or stinging on sensitive skin. | 1.0% |
| 06 | PhenoxyethanolPreservative | Keeps the water-based formula safe from microbes once opened. | Permitted up to 1% in cosmetics. Used at under half that limit, paired with methylparaben so each can stay low. | 0.45% |
| 07 | AllantoinSoothing | Helps skin feel calm, soft and comfortable. | Allantoin is effective from about 0.1–0.5%; 0.2% adds comfort without changing the texture. | 0.2% |
| 08 | CarbomerTexture | Gives the serum its light gel body so it stays on your fingertips. | Just enough to turn water into a soft gel that doesn't run, while still sinking in quickly. | 0.2% |
| 09 | Centella Asiatica ExtractBotanical | Cica. A classic soothing botanical that helps skin feel calm. | A standardised extract is used at a low level: enough to comfort skin, low enough to keep the formula gentle. | 0.2% |
| 10 | Avena Sativa (Oat) PeptideConditioning | Oat-derived peptides that comfort and condition skin. | Used at the supplier's recommended level for a conditioning, comforting feel. | 0.2% |
| 11 | TriethanolaminepH balance | Adjusts the pH so the gel sets and the formula stays skin-friendly. | Measured to neutralise the carbomer exactly. Carbomer only thickens once its pH is raised. | 0.15% |
| 12 | MethylparabenPreservative | A well-studied preservative that works with phenoxyethanol to protect the formula. | Permitted up to 0.4% on its own. Used well under that because it shares the job with phenoxyethanol. | 0.15% |
| 13 | Xanthan GumTexture | A natural thickener that keeps the texture stable and smooth. | A small amount stabilises the gel so it stays consistent from the first drop to the last. | 0.14% |
| 14 | EthylhexylglycerinPreservative booster | Supports the preservative system and conditions skin. | Boosts the preservatives, which lets the main preservatives be used at lower levels. | 0.05% |
| 15 | PanthenolHumectant | Pro-vitamin B5. Attracts moisture and leaves skin feeling soft. | A supporting humectant. Glycerin does the heavy lifting; panthenol adds a softer skin feel. | 0.05% |
| 16 | Disodium EDTAStabiliser | Binds trace minerals in water so the formula stays stable and fresh. | Only a trace is needed to bind stray minerals that could destabilise the formula or shift its colour. | 0.05% |
| 17 | Pentylene GlycolHumectant | Light hydration, and helps keep the formula fresh. | Trace level. It mostly comes in with the peptide and botanical raw materials. | <0.01% |
| 18 | 1,2-HexanediolHumectant | Hydrating, and supports the preservative system. | Trace level. It mostly comes in with the peptide raw materials. | <0.01% |
| 19 | Tetrapeptide-4Peptide | Part of the five-peptide micro-complex chosen to work alongside GHK-Cu for smoother-looking skin. | Signal peptides are dosed in parts per million; they're designed to work at very small amounts. Added at the supplier's recommended micro-dose. | trace |
| 20 | Hexapeptide-9Peptide | Peptide complex: supports the look of firmness and smoothness. | Signal peptides are dosed in parts per million, at the supplier's recommended level. | trace |
| 21 | Acetyl Tetrapeptide-9Peptide | Peptide complex: helps skin look denser and more supple. | Signal peptides are dosed in parts per million, at the supplier's recommended level. | trace |
| 22 | Acetyl Hexapeptide-8Peptide | Known as argireline. Helps soften the look of expression lines. | Signal peptides are dosed in parts per million, at the supplier's recommended level. | trace |
| 23 | Tripeptide-2Peptide | Peptide complex: supports a firmer-looking finish. | Signal peptides are dosed in parts per million, at the supplier's recommended level. | trace |
| 24 | Hydrolyzed Sodium HyaluronateHumectant | A low-weight form of hyaluronic acid for surface hydration. | Hyaluronic acid holds many times its weight in water, so even a trace adds surface hydration. | trace |
| 25 | DNA SodiumConditioning | A skin-conditioning ingredient that helps skin feel smooth. | Comes in at a trace level as part of the peptide complex. | trace |
| 26 | PolylysineStabiliser | An amino-acid polymer that helps keep the formula stable. | Comes in at a trace level as a stabiliser in the peptide complex. | trace |
Amounts are from our manufacturing formula, listed in descending order exactly as on the carton. Both formulas use methylparaben and phenoxyethanol as preservatives, each well under its permitted limit. No fragrance or colourant is listed: the blue comes from the copper peptide. Patch test before first use.
