Zinc and palmitoyl tripeptide-1

Zinc and palmitoyl tripeptide-1: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Apply them at different times of day with zinc in the morning and palmitoyl tripeptide-1 at night, because combining them stops them from working. Zinc cancels out the firming benefits of the peptide so your skin gets less results. You can space them out into separate routines or use a product that already blends them safely.
