Microcapsule and hexapeptide-9: work well together

Work well together

Use them together by applying the microcapsules first, because this delivery system helps the hexapeptide sink in better and work more effectively. Microcapsules act like little shields that keep the hexapeptide safe from breaking down on your skin, giving you better anti-aging results. You can keep using them as normal without needing to change anything or space them out.
