Ceramide-building complex and hexapeptide
Work well together
Use them together in the same routine, applying the ceramide complex first and the hexapeptide right after, because the lipids help your skin absorb the peptide better. The ceramides strengthen your skin barrier while the hexapeptide helps smooth and firm the surface. Both ingredients are gentle, but you can space them out or use a lower concentration if you experience any sensitivity.
