Pro-retinol and peptide-rich plasma: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day by applying peptides in the morning and pro-retinol at night, because combining them can cause irritation. Both ingredients work hard to smooth the skin, so using them together can overwhelm your face. You can easily fix this by giving your skin more time between the two or by trying a gentler strength.
