What to Expect When Using Peptides
Peptides are powerful skincare ingredients that help support collagen production, improve skin texture, and boost hydration. When incorporated into your routine, they work gradually to enhance your skin’s overall health and appearance. Here’s a timeline of what you can expect:
🫧Week 1-2:
Your skin will feel more hydrated, softer, and plumper.
🫧Week 3-4:
Fine lines may start to smooth out, and your skin’s elasticity will improve.
🫧Week 5+:
Expect visible firming, enhanced resilience, and a more youthful complexion.
To Get the Most Out of Peptides, Follow These Key Tips:
🫧Choose peptide-rich serums or moisturisers
Peptides are most effective in formulations that allow them to penetrate deeply into the skin. Look for serums and moisturisers specifically designed with peptides to support collagen production and skin repair. View products >
🫧Pair with hydrating ingredients
Peptides work best in a well-hydrated environment. Combining them with ingredients like hyaluronic acid helps lock in moisture, enhancing skin plumpness and elasticity. This synergy ensures maximum absorption and effectiveness. View products with Hyaluronic acid >
🫧Use consistently
Like most active skincare ingredients, peptides need regular use to deliver noticeable results. Apply them daily—morning, night, or both—to support long-term skin rejuvenation and maintain firmness and hydration.
🫧Avoid harsh exfoliants immediately after
Excessive exfoliation can damage the skin barrier and break down peptides before they have a chance to work. If you use strong exfoliants like AHA, BHA, or retinoids, apply peptides afterward or on alternating days to preserve their effectiveness and benefits.
With consistent use, peptides can be a true game-changer in your skincare routine. By following these steps, you maximize the potential of peptides and help your skin become firmer, smoother, and more resilient over time.
