Hexapeptide-9 and beta-sitosterol
Work well together
Use them together in the same routine, applying the hexapeptide-9 first and the beta-sitosterol right after, because lipids help peptides absorb better. The plant lipid helps the peptide sink in deeper so your skin barrier feels stronger and looks firmer. If your skin feels sensitive, wait a few minutes between applying them or use them less often.
