Tretinoin and palmitoyl tripeptide-1: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day by applying your peptide product in the morning and your tretinoin at night. Using both strong ingredients at the same time can cause extra skin irritation and redness. You can prevent this by switching to a gentler retinoid or giving your skin more time between applications.
