# Vitamin C and hexapeptide

Page: https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/vitamin-c-and-hexapeptide

The Lovi Fit is the same in every country; only the stores and prices differ, and the ones here are for the Netherlands.

Depends on the strength

Apply [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/vitamin-c) in the morning and [hexapeptide](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/hexapeptide) at night because mixing them reduces their effectiveness. They cancel each other out so your skin misses out on the full benefits. You can use them at different times of day or wait a few minutes between applications.

## Questions and answers

### Can you use vitamin C and hexapeptide together?

Whether you can use [vitamin C](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/vitamin-c) and [hexapeptide](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/hexapeptide) together depends on the strength. You should avoid or separate traditional vitamin C and copper-containing hexapeptides in the same routine, while pH-tolerant peptide derivatives may pair well with vitamin C.

### Which goes first, vitamin C or hexapeptide?

You should use vitamin C and hexapeptides in separate routines depending on the strength, because combining them can cause [copper](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/copper) complexes to oxidize and reduce the peptide's effectiveness. Alternatively, you can use pH-tolerant peptide derivatives that pair well with vitamin C.

### Are vitamin C and hexapeptide good for sensitive skin?

Using vitamin C and hexapeptides together depends on the strength of the ingredients, as pure L-ascorbic acid and [copper peptides](https://lovi.care/skincare/nl/ingredients/copper-peptide) should be avoided or separated in your routine. However, pH-tolerant peptide derivatives pair well with vitamin C and may benefit mature and sensitive skin.
