Retinal and peptide-rich plasma: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day by applying peptides in the morning and retinal at night to avoid irritation. Combining them both in the same routine can cause extra skin irritation because they are both very active. You can prevent this by switching to a gentler retinal strength or separating your application times.
