Acetyl hexapeptide-3 and zinc sulfate
Keep them apart
Use them at different times of day, applying the peptide first, because they cancel each other out. Zinc blocks the peptide from working, meaning the shopper gets no anti-aging benefits. The shopper can use zinc in the morning and peptides at night.
