Salicylic acid and hexapeptide: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day, applying salicylic acid first and hexapeptide later, because acid destroys peptide power. The acid is too sharp and breaks down the peptide before it can smooth fine lines. You can use one in the morning and the other at night to get the best results without a clash.
