Pro-retinol and triple peptide blend
Keep them apart
Use them at different times of day by applying the peptide blend in the morning and the pro-retinol at night to avoid skin irritation. Both ingredients work hard to smooth and firm the skin, so using them together can overwhelm your face and cause redness. You can easily fix this by using a gentler formula or separating your application times.
