Copper and acetyl hexapeptide-3

Copper and acetyl hexapeptide-3: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them on alternate nights, applying copper peptides on even days and acetyl hexapeptide-3 on odd days, to get the best results. Combining these two active ingredients can cause them to cancel each other out, meaning you will not see the firming and smoothing benefits you want. You can easily fix this by giving your skin more time between the two products.
