In brief

sh-Pentapeptide-19 is a laboratory-made chain of five amino acids designed to copy the structure of a peptide naturally found in the human body. The "sh" in its name shows it is produced synthetically to match this human sequence rather than being taken from animal or plant sources. In cosmetic formulations it is included as a skin-conditioning ingredient.
