Hexapeptide and betaine: work well together

Work well together

Use them together by applying the betaine hydrating serum first, followed by the hexapeptide, because moisture helps peptides work better. Betaine draws in moisture that helps the hexapeptide sink in deep and keep your skin barrier strong. You can use your usual amounts since these two ingredients work together safely.
