Quick Answers
What are peptides and ceramides in skincare?
Peptides are amino acid chains that signal skin to produce more collagen, while ceramides are lipids that strengthen the skin barrier, together improving skin firmness, hydration, and overall skin health.
What products do you carry with peptides and ceramides?
We stock skincare products from leading brands including Medik8 and Dermalogica that feature peptide and ceramide complexes to support skin renewal and barrier repair.
Are peptide and ceramide products suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, peptides and ceramides are generally very well-tolerated by sensitive skin. Ceramides in particular help repair and protect the skin barrier, reducing sensitivity over time.
What is the difference between peptides and retinol?
Both target signs of ageing, but peptides are gentler and can be used by most skin types without irritation. Retinol stimulates cell turnover more aggressively. Many routines benefit from using both at different times.
Can I use peptides with other active ingredients?
Yes, peptides are compatible with most actives including hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and ceramides. Avoid using them at the same time as strong acids, which can break down peptide bonds.
How long does it take to see results from peptide skincare?
Most people notice improvements in skin texture and firmness after 4–8 weeks of consistent use. Ceramide products may show improvements in skin comfort and hydration sooner.
