    I didn't put any BACWater in the serum. I reconstituted it with a little HA and then put it in the HA bottle.

      @jackie awesome thanks!

      Have you noticed good results topically vs injected?

        I think the injections were the main driver of the change. But it took four months before I saw much improvement really on my skin. Five months for my hair. I’ve only done the topical a little over a month. However, I suspect that that had something to do with my rosacea doing better. I’m not sure though.

            Inject your subject in the glutes. It is so much better!

                The post from @valgal about KLOW--is KLOW or GLOW better than just straight GHK?

                    I haven't tried this, but going to give it a try this weekend. I want to make a hand cream and body lotion as well as facial serum.

                    @WisGal64 and @jackie Just mixed 1 gram GHK with some Ordinary HA for the Mrs. per your direction on this thread. Confirming it gets refrigerated between uses?

                      I do. Maybe not necessary, but it feels good cool

                        @jackie Perfect. Thank you.

                        Took a little more effort to mix than I expected. Put some serum in the GHK tube and thought it would just dissolve. Shook it and then had to get a small stir stick to finish the job. Poured it into the serum bottle, then put more serum in the tube to get the rest of the GHK. Is this normal? Or is there a better way?

                          I pour it directly into the HA and stir it with the dropper. I store in the cabinet but fridge would work too

                            @WisGal64 Thanks! I’ll try that next time. I was afraid of making a mess (not sure how easily it would pour out). lol

                              My friends all know me as "the peptide guy", and one of them is asking about skin health / wrinkle reduction peptides. I know that GHK-Cu is the gold standard, but he is asking about peptides that are used by topical application. My research tiger has never used any of these, and I know that I've heard of some peptide that can be applied directly to the skin but wasn't sure if there were some that are better than others for this use case. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated!

                              @Rain depending on what you little rat friend need. i'd say wrinkled yes the GHK-Cu but i hear tell that KPV can be used topicaly for skin conditions like a rash or eczema. maybe poison ivy itch

                                  Just wanted to share an experience. I had ordered a collection of The Ordinary skin care, didn't realize that it came with cold pressed Rose Hip oil. Read up on it, started layering it on top of the GHK-CU serum in the evenings. My skin, while it still feels soft in the mornings, was also a little dry in areas, after adding the rose hip oil, it has made a difference with the hydration, skin just feels so good.

                                  Note: You don't need much, like a drop will cover more area than realized, I learned very quickly lol

                                    I use an oil from Besque that has Rose Hip Oil and I swear that the skin on my body has improved 30-40% since December. I need to make something to put my GHK-cu on my body first and then seal it in with the oil.
