"I personally have had this exact experience very recently with the Remedy copper peptide serum, where it makes skin dry and flaky. I've used other copper peptide serums before and never had that problem, so I have no explanation for it. It may be a formulation issue with this product rather than the copper peptide itself."

Do Copper Peptides Really Work? Dermatologist Reviews the Science

"I isolated it down to this specific product with testing. It's a good formula, it's got logical ingredients, it's fairly priced, but it's not one I'm going to buy for myself to use, and [...] I don't want to get on here and say this is the best copper peptide serum I've ever used, because in reality it's absolutely not."

REMEDY Hydrating Serum Review: Does It Actually Work?

"I did not personally get along well at all with the copper peptide serum, I would never repurchase that. It gave me this tight, dry, irritated feeling to my [...] skin right away. The copper peptide was just a disaster for me, not a bad formulation per se, it just did not agree with me."

"This is a new launch by Remedy with copper peptides, Arjirylene, Centella asiatica for calming and soothing, ectoin which also strengthens skin barrier, poly glutamic acid for hydration, and hyaluronic acid. So it sounds like a beautifully hydrating serum with copper peptides. And Remedy makes some seriously amazing products."

"The Remedy Copper Peptide Complex Advanced Firming Serum is about $33. It's a really lovely mid-range option from Dr. Mona Shah. It pairs that 1% copper peptide GHK-Cu with firming peptides and hyaluronic acid."

"I tested it by putting Biossance on one side of my face [...] and Remedy on the other for my morning routine, and [...] I could not tell the difference. My skin stayed hydrated [...] and felt plump to the touch on both sides every time I ran the test. [...] I am so confident in recommending Remedy as a more affordable option to Biossance."

"I love the glass packaging, it's heavy quality with [...] a serum dropper and it stands on its own. This [...] is probably the best we've ever done in terms of the sensorial, I love the way it feels on the skin, it [...] gives a subtle glow, blends in nicely, isn't tacky at all, and it sets in quickly while still leaving a good amount of hydration. [...] You can use it morning or night since peptides play well with other ingredients and tend to be non-irritating."

"The consistency is much thicker than other copper peptide solutions I've tried, and it sinks [...] into the skin so effortlessly. It really hydrates, nourishes, and plumps the skin, and [...] I absolutely love it. For the price, you get far more than The Ordinary's copper peptide solution. [...] If all you're worried about is copper peptides, both are fantastic, but [...] for me this one is more versatile and it delivers."

Big COPPER PEPTIDE UPDATE - How To Use Copper Peptides In 2026

"This is a really nice accessible price point, and the hype around this product has really turbocharged people's interest in copper peptides. [...] It stabilizes the copper peptides in a way that means you can use it alongside your retinoid in the evening, but it's slightly trickier to use in the morning alongside vitamin C, so I'd [...] switch to a vitamin C derivative in the morning [...] if you're using this one."

"You've got econe in here, which I really, really love as a barrier boosting, calming, and soothing ingredient. You've got that great blend of copper peptide, and it's just doing a lot for the price that they're asking for. I absolutely love it. There are lots of affordable copper peptides that are now available, which I love to see, but I think Remedy are definitely up there with one of my absolute favorites."

"I also am a big fan of the Remedy Copper Peptide Serum. Again, has multiple different peptides alongside those copper peptides, too, which is why this is so so effective."

Worlds No1 PEPTIDE SERUM 2026 - Anti Aging Skincare Awards

"This is a beautiful, beautiful serum that combines multiple different peptides alongside the copper peptides, which are doing a lot of the heavy lifting here. Copper peptides are great for boosting collagen and elastin production, and the other peptides support that pro-collagen benefit while also calming and soothing. It's lovely and hydrating, it has some antioxidants in there too, and it's a really clever formula."

"I feel like PDRN might compare a lot to copper peptides, and you know, people talk a lot about how copper peptides are some of the most studied peptides, but really there are not a ton of studies on this ingredient and yet there are a lot of people who absolutely swear by copper peptides. Maybe that's what's actually happening with PDRN—maybe the [...] formulas are nice and so people are seeing nice results. At thirty dollars, it will do just fine compared to the sixty dollar PDRN serum."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Humectants and emollients

Ingredients like these draw water into the surface layers and slow how fast it leaves. The evidence is for comfort, softness and hydration rather than for changing the structure of the skin.

Peptides

Peptides are short protein fragments meant to signal repair. The evidence for them is thinner than for retinoids or vitamin C, and it varies a lot by the specific peptide, so the category is more promising than proven.

Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an antioxidant, and it is often in a formula to keep the other ingredients stable rather than as the active itself. It pairs well with vitamin C, though on its own the evidence for visible change is limited.
