Ceramide-building complex and hexapeptide-9: work well together

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying the ceramide-building complex first and the hexapeptide-9 right after, because the lipids help the peptide sink in better. The rich lipids make the peptides work better so your skin barrier feels stronger and looks smoother. If your skin feels too heavy, you can wait a few extra minutes between applying them or use a lighter cream.
