Hexapeptide and arginine
Work well together
Use them together, applying the peptide first and the amino acid right after, because they help each other repair the skin barrier. The amino acid feeds the skin so the peptide can build firmness and smooth fine lines more effectively. If your skin feels sensitive, you can apply them on alternate nights or look for a gentler formula.
