Baking soda and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4

Baking soda and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day, applying the peptide first, because baking soda is too harsh. Baking soda destroys the peptide's firmness-boosting powers, making both useless. You can use baking soda less often or wait a few hours between them.
