What it is
GHK-Cu at 1.0% carried in oil rather than water, which suits skin that drinks a serum and still feels tight. Omega ceramides and ximenia oil do the sealing.
Last step at night. Not with direct acids, same as the rest of the copper products.

Where it sits on the ramp
Five flood bands, F-100 to F-500, by how dilute the formula is.

The Copper System only — four SKUs, face only.
How to use it
- 01After the water layer, before cream.
- 02Use it at night.
- 03Do not layer it with direct acids — alternate them on different days instead.
- 04Introduce one new active at a time, so an irritation has one obvious cause.
What’s inside

5.0
I was sceptical about an oil over a serum but the lipid phase argument made sense and my skin in the morning is noticeably softer. Absorbs completely by the time I am in bed.

Winter saviour
My skin stopped feeling tight overnight within a week.

Lovely and genuinely effective on elasticity around my jaw
Docking a star because the dropper drips more than it should.
4.0
Rich, in a good way
Too rich for me in July, perfect from October.
5.0
Pairs properly with the blue serum rather than duplicating it
I use the serum then this.

Three drops is plenty
No residue on the pillow, which was my main worry.
No reviews match that filter yet.

Questions
Frequently asked
Common questions about the night oil
What does the colour on the bottle mean?
It is the dose. Every product floods one of five steps of the same blue: the palest is the cleansers, where water does the work, and full-strength cupric is reserved for the four copper products. A product cannot change band because of a season or a repackage.
Why is copper limited to four products?
Because a flagship that can be extended forever is not a flagship. GHK-Cu at full dose is the most expensive thing we make and it stays on the face, in four products. If we launch a fifth copper SKU, we will have changed our minds in public rather than quietly.
Do you publish the percentages?
On every product, in the first chapter of the page, before any claim is made about it. Where a formula is a blend rather than a single active, the page shows the blend instead of inventing a headline number.
How do I know what not to layer?
It is printed in the how-to-use block on each product, not buried in an FAQ. The short version: copper peptides and direct acids do not go on together, and a retinal night is followed by SPF in the morning.
Where do I start?
The copper protocol — the blue serum, the barrier cream and the daily spf. Treat, repair-adjacent support, and protection, which is the whole argument of the system in three steps.
Before you buy
The number is a position, not a grade.
Every active at the percentage it is used at, and what not to layer it with — stated before any claim is made about it.
