Matrixyl

INCI · Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4

A peptide used for the look of smoother, more supple skin.

What Matrixyl layers with
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid)

The 'acids break down peptides' idea is often repeated but not well-established for finished cosmetics. Many products pair them; separate them only if your skin prefers it.

Use with caution
AHAs (glycolic / lactic acid)

The pH concern with peptides and acids is often repeated but not well-established; separate if your skin prefers.

Use with caution
BHA (salicylic acid)

Precautionary; the interaction concern is theoretical rather than demonstrated.

Use with caution
