Glycerin and acetyl hexapeptide-3
Work well together
Use them together by applying the glycerin serum before the peptide product, because hydration helps the peptide work better. Glycerin gives your skin moisture while acetyl hexapeptide-3 helps smooth the look of lines. You do not need to change anything since they work nicely together.
