Zinc and collagen peptide: keep them apart

Keep them apart

Apply zinc and collagen peptide at different times of day, using zinc in the morning and collagen peptides at night, because combining them stops them from working. Zinc interferes with collagen peptides and can make them less effective on your skin. You can wait a few minutes between products, or simply use them in separate routines.
