Retinoid blend and collagen peptide: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Use them at different times of day by applying the peptide product in the morning and the retinoid at night to prevent skin irritation. Both active ingredients push your skin to renew itself quickly, which can sometimes lead to redness or sensitivity when used together. You can avoid this by switching to a gentler retinoid formula or by giving your skin more time between applications.
