What is the CAIL origin story?
|
CAIL began with a version of copper peptides called Pal‑GHK Cu, which carries a palmitoyl (lipid) for enhanced delivery into the skin. Because the skin’s outermost layer is also lipid‑based, this shared affinity allows the formulation to integrate with the skin's surface for enhanced ingredient delivery. Copper peptides like GHK‑Cu are known to support skin's natural collagen to help visibly repair signs of aging. |

Building on this understanding of lipid‑enhanced delivery, NIOD developed a stable, high-concentration system, resulting in NIOD’s patented technology. Offering a high concentration of 1% Pal‑GHK‑Cu in a plumping gel, it’s engineered to improve hydration and visible skin volume. |

Rather than simply blending components together, CAIL requires a highly controlled manufacturing process, batched to protect the integrity of the technology. This ensures stability, texture consistency, and performance. |

After extensive testing, our breakthrough came when we identified materials that not only worked well with skin but are compatible with effectively solubilizing Pal-GHK Cu, enhancing delivery into the skin.
After further refinement, we achieved stability and controlled delivery and have continued optimizing both over time.
For optimized skin now, and in the future. |
