Collagen peptide and behenyl alcohol: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day, applying your peptide serum in the morning and your behenyl alcohol cream at night, because strong solvents can weaken the peptides. Behenyl alcohol acts like a strong solvent that can disrupt and break down the delicate structure of collagen peptides, making them much less effective on your skin. To fix this, you can space them out into separate routines or look for products with milder ingredients.
