Betaine and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4: work well together

Work well together

Use them together by applying the hydrating betaine serum first, followed by the peptide cream, to help your skin stay extra plump. Betaine draws in moisture that helps the peptide cream sink in better and work more effectively. If your skin feels sensitive, you can apply them on alternate nights or wait a few minutes between layers.
