In reply to Jennifer.

Jennifer, I keep seeing claims you can’t use them together but no one cites a source of study! From what I’ve unearthed so far, it can deactivate it, but not in the way it’s used in cosmetics. This reaction seems to take forever so it’s not really a concern.

It also seems to happen with L-Ascorbic Acid. I haven’t seen research on derivatives yet.

In reply to Ann. Ann, copper peptides can do this, especially if you're prone to them.

Great comparison - I've just gotten a sampler of the Protini cream and of course love the texture, but I'm dreading the price tag if I decide to repurchase. Love that there's a more affordable, creamy option. Angela at Blush & Pearls

I’ve heard peptides in skincare can increase hair growth (peach fuzz on the face). What are your thoughts on this? Is there a specific peptide that I should avoid if I don’t want to risk more fuzz?
