Overview

A face serum spreads across everything — which means your deepest concern zones don't get the concentration they need. The GHK-Cu Balm Stick delivers GHK-Cu and nine peptides including Argireline and Matrixyl precisely where you need them: crow's feet, forehead lines, nasolabial folds, the 11s, neck, chest, and hands. Targeted treatment, face and body, twice a day.

  • Low-irritating
  • Nine-peptide complex
  • Anhydrous (waterless) formula
  • Fragrance-free
  • No silicones
  • No artificial color
  • Sustainable packaging

Net wt. 0.71 oz. / 20g

Key Benefits
  • Nine peptides, working at once

    on face, neck, chest, or anywhere it's needed. GHK-Cu supports the look of firmness. Argireline + SYN-AKE soften the look of expression lines. Matrixyl supports firmer-looking skin. Carnosine helps skin look fresh.

  • No water, no dilution

    Anhydrous formula means peptides go on at full concentration. Meadowfoam and Squalane carry them deep into the skin.

  • Works continuously

    The balm forms an occlusive layer that keeps working as long as it's on. Under SPF in the morning or final step at night — either way it's on the job.

  • Nothing it doesn't need

    No fragrance, silicones, parabens, or PEGs. A precision tool, not a moisturizer.

How to Use

Always start on freshly cleansed skin — a gentle cleanser is all you need first.

Morning or night. Or both.

  1. Press directly onto concern zones — eye area, lip lines, nasolabial folds, forehead, neck, chest, or hands.
  2. Press gently, don't rub. The warmth of your skin melts it in.
  3. AM: Set for 60 seconds, then apply SPF on top. No pilling.
  4. PM: Apply as your final step, over the GHK-Cu 2% Serum if using. Leave on.
  5. Use morning and night for maximum peptide hours.

Pairing & SPF

Go easy on other actives. Avoid layering GHK-Cu in the same routine as retinol, retinaldehyde, vitamin C, or strong exfoliating acids — they can irritate skin, and vitamin C can deactivate the copper peptide. Use those on alternate nights so each active can do its job.

Always wear SPF. Daily sun protection is what lets a smoother, firmer look actually show. Finish every morning with a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ to protect your results.

How It Works

A full-face serum spreads its dose across everything — great for general coverage, but the zones where lines are deepest benefit from a higher concentration than a thin layer can deliver. The GHK-Cu Balm Stick puts nine peptides directly onto those zones in a concentrated balm that holds in place and keeps working for hours. Crow's feet, the 11s, lip lines, nasolabial folds — each gets a targeted dose, not a fraction of one.

Argireline and SYN-AKE help soften the look of expression lines. They work through different approaches, so their effects add up rather than cancel out. Matrixyl and GHK-Cu support firmer, smoother-looking skin over time. Together, they work on the overall look of the area.

Because there's no water in this formula, the peptides are at full concentration from the first touch. The balm holds them against your skin under a breathable seal — working under your SPF in the morning and throughout the night as your final step. The longer it's on, the more it works.

🔬 GHK-Cu is a well-studied cosmetic ingredient, with 50+ years of independent, peer-reviewed research behind it.

The Missing Peptide

Losing firmness? Your skin stopped
making the peptide behind it.

GHK-Cu is the copper peptide your skin relies on to look firm and smooth. It peaks in your twenties, then drops year after year — and as it fades, skin loses firmness, fine lines settle in, and texture turns rough. Most creams just sit on top and mask it. Koppā puts GHK-Cu back where your skin lost it.

Don't cover the signs of aging — replace what's driving them. That's the copper peptide your skin loves.

How it works

Liposomal GHK-Cu, built to absorb smoothly.

A high concentration only matters if the peptide stays stable and absorbs well. Here's the three-step journey ours takes.

Step 1

Sealed to survive

Each GHK-Cu molecule is wrapped in a lipid shell — so it stays stable instead of evaporating on the surface like most peptide serums.

Step 2

Absorbs smoothly

That shell helps it absorb evenly instead of sitting and drying on the surface like many peptide serums.

Step 3

Improves the look over time

GHK-Cu is a well-studied cosmetic peptide that helps improve the look of firmness, texture, and tone with continued use.

Why GHK-Cu?

New to copper peptides? Start here.

As skin ages, it makes fewer of the signals that keep it firm and smooth — so it repairs more slowly and lines settle in. GHK-Cu is a copper peptide your body already makes on its own. Applied to the skin at a real concentration, it helps prompt the look of firmer, healthier skin over time.

Koppā vs. a typical peptide stick

Twice the product. None of the water.

Most peptide sticks are mostly wax and water, so the actual dose is small. The GHK-Cu Balm Stick is a 20g anhydrous, nine-peptide concentrate — more of what you pay for reaches your skin.

Over double the product of a typical peptide stick. 20g of an anhydrous, nine-peptide concentrate — no water diluting the dose. You get more peptide on your skin, and more value for every gram you pay for.

Is it right for you?

Who it's for — and who it isn't.

Best for

  • Fine lines and early wrinkles
  • Loss of firmness

Not ideal if

  • You want an exfoliant or a peel
  • You want instant, temporary tightening
  • You're specifically treating active acne
  • You expect overnight results — this builds over weeks

I apply this around my eyes every single morning and night. Two months in, the crow's feet have softened visibly. My partner noticed before I mentioned it.

★★★★★

The format is genius. I can apply it in the car (parked), or right at my desk. Precise, clean, no mess. This is the format peptide application should have always been.

Fiona O., 47 Concern: Loss of firmness Used 6 weeks ✓ Verified Purchase
★★★★☆

I have a deep nasolabial fold I have been treating for two years. This stick, used consistently for six weeks, is the first thing that has visibly softened it.

Diana G., 39 Concern: Uneven texture Used 3 months ✓ Verified Purchase
★★★★★

I have a stubborn 11 line between my brows. Six weeks. It is not gone but it is genuinely softer in a way no other product has achieved for me.

Rania K., 61 Concern: Crepey skin Used 10 weeks ✓ Verified Purchase
★★★★★

The convenience of a stick form is underrated. No spillage, no pumping, no contaminating a jar. Clean, precise, done.

Before you ask

Frequently asked results.

When will I see results?

Hydration and surface texture often improve in 2–4 weeks; the look of firmness and softer lines builds over the following weeks with daily use.

Can I use it with retinol?

Yes — just alternate nights rather than layering both in the same session, so neither adds unnecessary irritation.

Can I use it with vitamin C?

Yes, with timing: keep pure vitamin C in the morning and GHK-Cu at night — vitamin C can deactivate copper peptides if layered together.

Can I use it twice daily?

Yes. GHK-Cu is gentle and designed for morning and night. In the morning, finish with SPF.

Is it safe for sensitive skin?

Generally yes — it's not an acid, retinoid, or exfoliant, and it supports the barrier rather than disrupting it. Patch test first if you're highly reactive.

Can I use it around the eyes?

Yes — apply gently to the orbital bone area, avoiding direct contact with the eyes themselves.

Questions

Everything you need to know.

Where exactly should I use the GHK-Cu Balm Stick?
Wherever you see lines or creases — face or body. Eye area and crow's feet, nasolabial folds, lip lines, the 11s between your brows, forehead lines, neck, chest, décolletage, and hands. The GHK-Cu Balm Stick is precise by design: concentrating a nine-peptide dose exactly where you need it most. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
Can I use the GHK-Cu Balm Stick under makeup?
Yes. Apply it first, let it set for 60 seconds, then layer SPF and makeup on top. It doesn't pill or interfere with makeup — it forms a peptide-rich base that works under everything. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
Will one GHK-Cu Balm Stick really make a difference?
Yes — because it's targeted. Instead of spreading a thin dose across your whole face, the GHK-Cu Balm Stick concentrates a nine-peptide formula exactly on the lines that bother you most. People typically see those zones soften within a few weeks. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
What is GHK-Cu, in plain terms?
It's a copper tripeptide your body naturally produces, and a well-studied cosmetic ingredient. Its levels are highest in your twenties and taper off over the years. Koppā delivers it topically at a high concentration to help improve the look of firmness, texture, and tone over time. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
Is it safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. GHK-Cu is generally well tolerated — it is not an acid, not a retinoid, and not an exfoliant. It supports the look and feel of a comfortable barrier rather than disrupting it, and has a long track record in cosmetic use. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
How does it compare to retinol?
Retinol is a popular anti-aging active, but it comes with irritation risk, photosensitivity, and a purging phase at higher concentrations. GHK-Cu is a gentler copper peptide that supports the look of firmer, smoother skin without those downsides. They can be used on alternating evenings for a complementary routine, but should not be combined on the same night. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
How fast does shipping take?
Orders ship within 1–2 business days. Standard US shipping arrives in 3–5 days. Expedited 2-day shipping is available at checkout. We ship internationally to most countries — rates and estimated delivery shown at checkout. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
How long until I see results?
The look of hydration and surface texture typically improves within 2–4 weeks. The look of firmness, fewer visible fine lines, and a more even tone tends to develop over the following weeks and months with continued use. GHK-Cu is not an instant filler. Consistent daily use is what drives results. Add GHK-Cu Balm Stick to bag — $36.00
