    You don't state how much Snap-8 you added in the video? 10mg? I have purchased Snap-8 bulk in a Lyophilized powder so not sure if I can add directly to the HA serum?

      DIY Topical Peptide Serum with GHK-Cu + Snap-8 | Base, Mixing & Clean Handling (Video Tutorial)

      🎬 Watch on RandyTube: DIY Topical Peptide Serum with GHK-Cu + Snap-8 | Base, Mixing & Clean Handling (Video Tutorial)

      In this video we make a simple topical serum with GHK-Cu and Snap-8 for a fraction of what pre-made serums cost. It covers choosing a base, getting the peptides into it without wrecking them, keeping everything clean, and an optional roller for application. Patch test first.


      Comments posted here show up under the video on PeptideCritic.com, and vice versa. Questions about the technique, gear or the math are all welcome.

              I’m making this soon just minus the snap8. Can i buy a half gram scoop from Amazon? Will that be just as accurate without the kitchen scale? Also I have seen a few other mixtures for this that calls a gram?

                I did the math and it's about the same price to buy a pre-made GHK product relative to taking the DIY route.

                A couple of differences:

                1. Knowing your GHK is "legit" when you make it yourself (controlling your sourcing)
                2. Controlling the amount of GHK in the finished product. Iirc Anela aims for ~3%, whereas standard formulations are a lot lower at 0.5 or 1%
                3. A lot of pre-made serums will have a more complex formulation that could be more beneficial to your skin
                  3.5) In some cases the formulation could be a turn off because it has too much

                Here's the GHK product I used to compare to the DIY route: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C9DXGXZ3

                Lmk if my math is wrong, I've been seriously contemplating making my own skin and hair serums for a while, but the math wasn't what I wanted it to be.

                  Randy motivated me and I have started making a few different types - all w/ ordinary HA base.

                  The first is a GHK-Cu night serum

                  Water, Sodium Hyaluronate
                  GHK-Cu 1.2%
                  Glycerin 3.3%
                  Propanediol 3.3%
                  Ectoin 1.0%
                  Panthenol 1.0%
                  Optiphen 1.0%
                  Allantoin 0.5%
                  Pal-150 0.027%
                  Snap-8 0.027%

                  the second is morning serum

                  Timeless HA, Ectoin 2.5%, Panthenol 2.5%
                  Beta-glucan 1%, Glycerin 3%, Propanediol 2%
                  Allantoin 0.5%, Optiphen 1%, Syn-Ake 3mg

                  The third is an eczema serum which has been amazing w/ KPV
                  Timeless HA 30 mL
                  Ectoin 1.05 g (3.5%)
                  KPV 5 × ~12.65 mg vials (~63 mg, ~0.21%) via 0.10–0.15 g BAC each
                  GHK-Cu 0.09 g (0.30%)
                  Yeast β-glucan powder 0.06 g (0.2%)
                  Allantoin 0.06 g (0.2%)
                  Panthenol 0.30 g (1%)
                  Propanediol 0.82 g
                  Optiphen 0.21 g

                  All ingredients bought from supply houses. Hardest thing for me to get cheap is KPV in bulk.....any ideas?

                        You can search for raw AHK-cu or GHK-cu and find suppliers. Nexaph does sell 5g at a time, but it's going to be more expensive than a lot of other places.

                          @seadracos thanks. Does this work with reconstituted ghk or has to be the powder?

                            That I'm not sure, you probably could use reconstituted lypholized ghk. The raw powder is significantly cheaper though, and I think a different recipe i read recommended that you reconsitute the raw powder for more even mixing.
                            The raw powder is topical only though.

                              Question when reconstituting snap-8 10mg vile, is minimal amount of sterile water used just to reconstitute ? sounds like a researcher might use two 10mg vials of snap-8 for the mixture in the vid . any thoughts would be appreciated
