Peptide Skincare
Peptides are natural short chain amino acids in our bodies which form proteins such as Collagen and Keratin. These proteins are responsible for the appearance and texture, tone, elasticity, and firmness of our skin. There are different types of peptides which result from different types of amino acids combinations. Most skincare products combine a variation of peptides to benefit our skin by improving elasticity, smoothing, clarifying, healing, strengthening, and soothing the skin.

All you need to know about Peptides
What are Peptides in skincare for?
There are multiple benefits of using skincare that contains peptides such as improved elasticity, reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, strengthening of the skin’s natural barrier, reduction in redness and irritation. Combining peptides with other skincare ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid, and antioxidants can boost their benefits on your skin.
When is the best time to use peptides in your skincare routine?
You can use peptides in the morning and evening. Depending on the type of peptide skincare product you are using, you should layer peptide treatments after toning and before moisturiser so that they can work into your skin better. As peptides typically work to rejuvenate and repair your skin cells, using it in the evening would be ideal. This is because our skin begins its regeneration process in the night and with the help of added peptides, you are boosting your skins recovery process.
What should you avoid mixing with Peptides?
You should avoid using AHA + BHA skincare ingredients with peptides as they are chemical exfoliators that work to remove bonds in our skin to exfoliate dead skin cells and unclog pores. Therefore, as peptides work to restore our skins cells, mixing it with an AHA or BHA will cancel out its effectiveness.
