Product Overview
Dipeptide-2 (CAS 24587-37-9) is a synthetically derived dipeptide composed of L-valine and L-tryptophan, widely recognized in the cosmetic industry for its targeted efficacy in periorbital skincare formulations. As a potent angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, Dipeptide-2 helps modulate local vascular tone around the delicate eye area, thereby improving microcirculation and reducing fluid accumulation that leads to edema and discoloration.

Industrial Applications
Dipeptide-2 is exclusively formulated for advanced cosmetic applications, particularly in premium eye care products designed to address signs of fatigue and aging. Its mechanism of action—through selective ACE inhibition—supports dermal vascular health without systemic effects, making it ideal for topical use. Key benefits include:
- Reduction of under-eye puffiness by minimizing localized fluid retention
- Visible lightening of dark circles through enhanced capillary circulation
- Compatibility with sensitive skin formulations due to its biomimetic peptide structure
- Stability in aqueous and emulsion-based delivery systems
As a high-value active ingredient, Dipeptide-2 is suitable for inclusion in serums, creams, and gels targeting the periocular zone, offering formulators a scientifically backed solution for visible rejuvenation.
