Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying [panthenol](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/panthenol) first to calm the skin and followed by [palmitoyl pentapeptide-4](https://lovi.care/skincare/ie/ingredients/palmitoyl-pentapeptide-4) for firming benefits. Panthenol calms irritation and helps your skin heal, while palmitoyl pentapeptide-4 works alongside it to smooth fine lines and make your skin look firmer. If your skin feels sensitive, you can apply them on alternate nights or look for gentler formulas.
