GABA and palmitoyl tripeptide-1: work well together

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying GABA first and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 right after to boost your skin's moisture and firmness. GABA helps plump the skin while the peptide supports firmness, working as a team to make your skin look smoother and healthier. You can keep using them together as long as your skin feels comfortable, but drop down to every other day if you notice any dryness.
