02 — About Koppā
Two approved descriptions, written to drop straight into a piece. Use either verbatim; both are kept current here.
Koppā is a science-led skincare brand built around GHK-Cu — glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper, a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide present in human skin, and one of the most extensively studied ingredients in modern peptide skincare.
Rather than treating copper peptides as a supporting act, Koppā makes GHK-Cu the connective ingredient across its entire range. The Koppā Protocol is a three-step system: a 2% GHK-Cu serum as the concentrated first step, a capsule-delivery cream for hydration and skin barrier support, and a face-and-body balm stick for targeted application anywhere skin needs it.
The brand’s focus is skin health over time — hydration, barrier support, renewal and long-term skin quality — presented as a routine simple enough to keep rather than a regimen to manage. Formulas are fragrance-free and cruelty free, with the full ingredients list disclosed on every product page. Koppā is made for anyone interested in ingredient-led skincare and is not positioned as gendered.
Koppā sells direct at koppabeauty.com.
03 — The Koppā Protocol
One copper peptide, three considered formulas. Each protects and delivers GHK-Cu in a texture designed for a different place in your routine.
A considered 2% GHK-Cu formula: a focused first step for skin that looks smoother and feels well cared for. We chose this concentration deliberately; more is not automatically better. Light, fresh and water-based, it absorbs without an oily finish. Its natural blue comes from the peptide bound to copper, not added colour.
Comforting moisture with a deliberate delivery system. The visible blue microcapsules contain GHK-Cu, keeping the active separate within the cream to help protect its stability until you massage it into skin. The capsules release as the cream is worked in. They are a delivery format, not an exfoliant. The result is nourishing moisture and support for the skin barrier.
Copper peptide care in a distinctive, portable format. This waterless balm pairs GHK-Cu with rich moisture for dry-feeling areas on the face and body. Glide it over cheeks, hands, elbows or wherever skin needs extra comfort. It helps seal in moisture as the final step of your routine, and is easy to take with you for care on the go.
04 — The ingredient
GHK-Cu — glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper, listed on ingredient decks as Copper Tripeptide-1 — is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide found in human plasma, saliva and skin. It is not a synthetic novelty; it is a molecule the body already makes, and makes progressively less of with age.
Over the past decade it has moved from a specialist ingredient to one of the most prominent actives in peptide-focused skincare, with a body of published cosmetic research behind it. Koppā uses GHK-Cu as the connective ingredient across the Protocol rather than as one entry on a long list — every step in the range carries it.
-
Naturally occurring
A copper-binding tripeptide present in human skin, rather than an ingredient without a biological reference point.
-
Extensively studied
GHK-Cu has been studied for decades in the cosmetic and dermatological literature, and is used in formulations designed to support the look of skin firmness, texture and barrier condition.
-
Visible by nature
The blue of the serum is the peptide bound to copper — an inherent property of the complex, not an added colourant.
-
Dosed deliberately
Koppā states its GHK-Cu level and publishes the full ingredients list for every product, so writers can fact-check the range directly.
A note on language for anyone writing about the category: Koppā products are cosmetics. The brand does not present them as diagnosing, treating, curing or preventing any condition, and asks that coverage reflect that. Koppā is glad to supply references and formulation detail on request — see the science page for the published studies the brand cites.
05 — What sets Koppā apart
01
Copper peptides are not a footnote in the range. They are the reason it exists, and they run through every product in it.
02
Three complementary formats — serum, cream and balm stick — designed to be used together rather than sold as unrelated singles.
03
Advanced peptide skincare presented as three steps. The routine is short by design, because consistency matters.
04
Skin health does not stop at the jawline. The balm stick is built to travel past it — hands, knees, elbows, anywhere skin is asked to do more.
05
Modern skincare without gendered positioning. The same formulas, the same protocol, no separate range and no colour-coded assumption.
06
Ingredient-led skincare carried by contemporary packaging, with full ingredients disclosed and clear cosmetic language.
06 — Fact sheet
Everything a fact-checker asks for, grouped and expandable. Anything Koppā has not confirmed is deliberately absent rather than estimated.
