Understanding PEPTIDES in skincare

[@lorraineshoemate9430]

I know peptides and growth factors act similar but how do you both feel about growth factors, exosomes? Hype or does it actually do something in the skin. Also, what do you think about Estriol face creams? Thank you! Just found your videos.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Geek & Gorgeous Power Peptides Serum 😍

[@angieroa]

Me too. I use peptides and vit c serum from Geek and Gorgeous

[@tlou3291]

Me too! The G&G website breaks down the ingredients and discloses the percentages. They say it has 3% Matrixyl 3000, which is the clinically effective dose when used twice a day. I’m unsure whether or not the formulation is effective (it has other peptides in it), but I appreciate the transparency of the brand!

Thanks for going through all the peptide frustration for us! I appreciate it - and now you've got a new subscriber...still not worth it though huh??😂 I'm going to try The Ordinarily's peptides, but could you clarify your opinion/position on mixing (or *not* mixing!) peptides with other actives like Vitamin C and retinol, and other things like glycolic acids? I'm specifically referring to trying the Matrixyl 3000 and Argireline for their possible 'anti-aging' properties... Is it actually worth trying if I can't even mix peptides with the main (proven!) products or ingredients in my 'anti-aging' arsenal?🤔 ...and I'm not giving up Azelaic acid either! 😊 Thanks!🎯

Thank you! Both of those peptides should be fine, plus mixing is a temporary action so the effects of that interaction should be minimal.

I use Geek & Gorgeous Peptide, and wouldn’t buy the ordinary. Because G&G is transparent to how much peptides they used, the ordinary don’t
