If you’re already using a retinoid or if you have sensitive skin, you don’t want to add an aggressive ingredient that could risk irritation or cause sun sensitivity. Dr. Robinson likes peptides for these reasons, as she explains they help build collagen and elastin fibres and she can find formulas that don’t irritate her complexion, which is prone to eczema and acne. She likes Alastin Restorative Complex, as it’s potent but well tolerated.
