Looking to refresh your skin care routine? Allies of Skin grants your wishes with the Copper Tripeptide & Ectoin Advanced Repair Serum (50ml). This ultra-concentrated formula is enriched with 2% ectoin, a small amino acid that hydrates, soothes and protects your skin from free radical damage. It then calls on a mix of compounds (read: 2% Copper Lysinate Complex, 2% Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 Complex and 1% Copper Tripeptide Complex) which work together to firm the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while also reducing the look of dark spots and pigmentation. Cue a visage that looks radiant, even and plump.

About Copper Tripeptide & Ectoin Advanced Repair Serum

Overview

Copper Tripeptide & Ectoin Advanced Repair Serum is a lightweight serum from Allies of Skin. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 33 ingredients, each broken down in full below.

Texture and finish

By its ingredient list the formula reads as light: water and humectants lead, with emollients kept lower in the order. Hydration is handled by Glycerin, Panthenol and Ethylhexylglycerin, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.

What the formula does

Hydration: High. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Glycerin, Panthenol, Ethylhexylglycerin and Propanediol.

Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Ectoin, Isononyl Isononanoate, Panthenol and Tocopherol.

Antioxidant support: Moderate. Ingredients that mop up free radicals from UV and pollution, and here that comes from Ectoin, Tocopherol and Oxidized Glutathione.

Brightening: Moderate. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Ectoin, Tocopherol and Ergothioneine.

Who it suits

On richness alone it suits Balanced, Combination (oily) and Oily skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry and Combination (dry) skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.

What it does not target

The formula contributes little or nothing on oil control and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.

What is not in it

Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, silicone-free and microplastic-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.

Where it fits in a routine

It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after toner, before moisturiser. Apply to clean, dry skin and give it a minute to absorb before the next layer. Introduce one new treatment at a time so you can identify what is working.

This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.

This product is the "Treat" step.

  • Apply to clean, dry skin and give it a minute to absorb before the next layer.

Safety and suitability

Flags to check, not verdicts. None of this is medical advice — if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or treating a skin condition, ask a doctor.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Nothing in this formula is on the standard pregnancy-caution list. That is not clearance — ask your doctor about anything you use daily.
Fungal acne (malassezia)
3 ingredients could feed malassezia: Polyglyceryl-10 Oleate, Polysorbate 60, Polysorbate 20. That is about the yeast's food supply, not a prediction that you will break out.
Sensitive and reactive skin
No ingredient in this formula carries a common-irritant flag, making it a reasonable option for reactive skin. A patch test is still recommended, as individual skin reactivity varies.
