Rated by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying the peptide first and the plant lipid second for better moisture. The plant lipids help the peptide sink in deeper while making your skin barrier feel much stronger. If your skin feels sensitive, you can apply them on alternate nights instead.
