Odd but good side effect from using NCN Copper Peptide

I started using NCN Copper Peptide serum about a month ago and I love what it does for my skin- more even tone and softening of lines etc but lately a side effect I am noticing is less facial hair growth. I am one of those women who just shaves off my upper lip hair every morning. Well lately there is either very little or none to shave off??? The only thing new I am using is the Copper Peptide. Has anyone else had this effect from a copper serum?

hm strange, I've never heard of that but I don't know much about copper products for the skin. Have you tried researching it a little and see if this could be a side effect?

How interesting! When I was using LightStim it seemed to increase (a lot!) the amount of facial hair. I got the No!No! which I'm very happy with, but I love the idea that something that is so good for your skin could actually have that bonus benefit. Thanks!!

I just did a search and it looks like copper actually stimulates hair growth but supposedly it only does so where you would have normal hair growth. I didn't see where any particular form of copper was mentioned. I say if it is helping you, definitely keep using it.
