Application Notes

The Advanced Biomimetic Peptide Emulsion is a multitasking treatment suitable for both morning and evening use. Apply it after toner, exfoliant, or water-based serums (such as the BioVital Rejuvenation Serum) and before richer serums or creams (like the Epigenetic Repair Complex and Microbiome Barrier Cream).

This sequence maximizes peptide absorption, as peptides penetrate most effectively before oils or emollient-rich products.

For amplified results, pair it with the Epigenetic Repair Complex – the Emulsion delivers Matrixyl 3000, while the Complex features Dermaxyl. These two clinically proven matrikines work synergistically to support visible repair, improve firmness, and reduce the look of aging.
