Magnesium and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4

Magnesium and palmitoyl pentapeptide-4: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day, applying the peptide first, because they cancel each other out when mixed. Combining these two ingredients stops them from working properly on your skin. You can easily fix this by using one in the morning and the other at night.
