Azelaic acid and palmitoyl tripeptide-1
Keep them apart
Use them at different times of day, applying azelaic acid in the morning and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 at night. The strong acid breaks down the peptide and stops it from smoothing fine lines. The shopper can separate them into different routines or use a gentler acid.

Questions and answers
Can you use azelaic acid and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 together?
Keep azelaic acid and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 apart by using them in separate routines, such as one in the morning and one at night, because combining them directly in the same routine may reduce peptide activity.
Which goes first, azelaic acid or palmitoyl tripeptide-1?
Keep azelaic acid and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 apart by using them in separate steps or routines, such as alternating between morning and evening applications. Mixing them directly is not recommended because the acidic environment can reduce peptide activity.
Are azelaic acid and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 good for sensitive skin?
Keep azelaic acid and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 apart by using them in separate routines, such as morning and night, because low-pH acids like azelaic acid can reduce peptide activity.
