Lynnette, I’m sorry to hear your granddaughter is suffering from spots already. I’d recommend she uses an exfoliant with salicylic acid (also called BHA) once a day. That should help.

If you’re looking for a peptide serum, it’s a good option to try. It’s chock full with them and so cheap. I also like that it has plenty of hyaluronic acid, so it should be able to hydrate your skin as well.

So glad to hear that it’s okay for sensitive skin. I also read that they are quite new and therefore do not have a lot of proofs that they work (or not). I agree that most of the times they are very expensive ($100ish or more), so I’m just gonna try The Ordinary’s $15 Buffet Serum, I’m pretty sure you have heard of its Matrixyl 3000 & Syn-Ake. What do you think about their Buffet product in term of ingredient?

I have looked at Paula’s Choice serums but unfortantely haven’t been able to find a supplier for Paula’s Choice products here in Indonesia, I’m still trying to find one 🙂

Audrey, peptides are usually fine for sensitive skin. My only concern is that the verdict’s still out there on whether they work or not. Some critics say they’re too big to penetrate the skin while others think they work even when left on the surface. I’m inclined to believe the second thesis but peptides are expensive. That’s why I recommend getting a serum with antioxidants AND peptides. Paula’s Choice makes some great antioxidant serums that anyone can use. Have you checked those out?
