Acetyl hexapeptide-3 and isopropyl alcohol
Keep them apart
Apply the peptide product first, wait ten minutes, and then use the alcohol product later, because harsh solvents can ruin anti-aging results. Alcohol breaks down the delicate structure of the peptide, making it unable to smooth fine lines or firm the skin. The shopper can switch to a alcohol-free toner or wait longer between applying them.
