Andrew Hubberman’s new skin health video mentioned how important copper is for the skin. I always love him! I did try the ordinary’s copper a few years ago. Went through 2 bottles but didn’t see any difference in my skin. Switched to Vit C and noticed more improvement. May try one of these since I do want to include it but only if I see something noticeable. Even just texture or brightening would make me rebuy.
Hi Penn, I just started using the Maelove peptide squad a couple of weeks ago. Glad to hear you’re giving it your stamp of approval. I would love a follow up video on peptides in general. I ordered COSRX “The 6 Peptide Skin Booster” per your suggestion. I’m loving it so far and would love to hear how you incorporate it into your routine.
I’ve been looking at the Maelove for quite honestly years, so it’s good to hear this positive review. To be honest, even though the NIOD is watery, I find it to be sticky as it dries down. Plus, the high price has had me looking for alternatives for a while. Right now I’m not using any kind of copper peptides, except for what they have in the needleless serum. Thanks for this Penny!
My nutrition is this is a nutshell: I focus on protein- I try to get 120-140 grams a day. Because that’s a lot it naturally limits carbs. I’m not trying to limit carbs but it just happens (I still eat carbs is what I am trying to say). I’ve given up alcohol completely (for several months now) and no added sugar at all. Totally good with fruits and natural sugar. I lift heavy weights (in fact I am sitting on a leg press between sets answering this comment lol) and try to get 10-12k steps a day (doesn’t always happen, but I try). I supplement collagen, magnesium, vitamin D and C among other things (those are biggies). Huge difference in the inflammation in my body since quitting drinking and sugar ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for your sweet words!!
I've been using the Niche Labs Theramid Copper and ♥ it. Loaded with peptides and growth factors. Reasonably priced - esp. when the offer the larger sizes twice a year.
I LOVE Niche Beauty lab!! I featured them in a video a while back (as a great, affordable brand). I am pretty sure I bought their copper peptide 🤔 I need to go look!! Wonderful option!
Hi Penny, I recommend looking into Theramid Copper Peptide 3%. It's also about half the price od NIOD, and I love the texture of it. BTW: You look amazing!
When I decided to put copper peptides in my routine, I did some research and decides on Peach & Lily. I love Peach & Lily Copper Peptide !! Can't wait to see the video you put out on this!!
When the Ordinary are extra cheap (in November) I buy a years supply of copper peptides, nicarimide, argariline, matrxyl and mix them all together and slap it on all year long.
can you make a video or explain how you mix them? i am one month into this skin care stuff taking care of my wife as well… just wondering about ways we can get the most bang for our buck.
@@-Carne-Asada-If you want to save yourself the mixing, there are some great already mixed options. The ordinary actually has one with copper, it used to be called "Buffet", now I think it's multi peptide + Copper. And Mad About Skin has their Super Serum with tons of good ingredients including the Matrixyl, Agrigiline and copper. It's just about a one and done!!
@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE yes, of course, but swelling can often take years to settle and you intervened at the right time so that everything looks very natural. It was a compliment lol
Great video! In my own experience I had been using Retinal one night copper peptides the next. Once I got Tretinoin my skin improved dramatically much more than just retinal. I figured now I'll have even more collagen and when I ran out of the copper peptides I thought it's so expensive never mind. After a few months of not using it, my breakouts were not hailing as quickly. pores were enlarging. Pigment came back. my skin began to sag. I realized the copper peptide's really work wonders for me. I bought the ordinary and put a few drops into the CosRX 6 peptide booster together every other night. All those problems reversed in just a couple months time!
Interestingly, Dr Shereene Idriss says we shouldn’t use Copper peptides and vitamin C together because the copper peptides can oxidise the vitamin C. So it’s not that it causes a problem, it’s just that the vitamin C doesn’t work. She recommends using one am and the other pm. BTW I really love your channel. I am currently binge watching your microneedling playlist as I have just a bought a microneedle pen and want to use it safely and with the best outcome. Your knowledge is fantastic. Thank you. 😊
Okay I must admit my Niod copper peptides is one of my favorite products to put on my face because its literally like water and my mature oily skin loves it! I will say though I wish Niod came with something other than a dropper style bottle. Amazon sells little dark amber glass spray bottles that are fairly inexpensive and I will be purchasing those as I too have accidentally tipped over my cp and just about bawled my eyes out. Yet another wonderful video with such fantastic information ❤️
have you tried their CAIL copper peptide - it's like an ointment. My mature skin loves it and I put it on at the end of my routine because of the soothing occlusive feeling
I bought the Niod CAIS3 during their 50% off sale back in November and haven’t used it yet. It seems really finicky as the product page indicates that it conflicts with acids, vitamin c, antioxidants, retinoids…stuff that are in so many products these days. I use tretinoin at night for acne and I use vitamin C in my AM routine so I can’t seem to find a place for this copper peptide serum.
I hate dropper bottles too!!! I always buy some pumps during the NIOD slowvember sale to use on the dropper bottles. They fit any standard 30ml bottle, like Ordinary, Timeless, even Medik8. I wish other companies, like MaeLove would offer pumps.
@mkryu I personally use my Niod Cais 3 on the nights I use my acid, but after washing the acid off, then using a toner that's pH balanced for skin and waiting another few minutes for my skin pH to return to normal. If you use peptides immediately after an acid, they can be broken down. I use my acid mask twice a week, so that's twice a week I use my copper peptides.
@Emimadd I also said it was Agnes RF….in case you missed that video. I shared a few weeks ago. Skin tightening and fat reduction along the jaw/jowl area and upper cheeks.
Might you know what concentration of copper peptides and matrixyl 3000 should be used? What are your thoughts on Complete Skin Solutions Copper Peptide Serum? Also, I stumbled on Asterwood matrixyl 3000 and argireline combo. If you have time, your feedback would be appropriate on these two products. The Asterwood M3 works nicely and at a great price point. Thanks Penn. You’re a knowledgeable and wonderful resource for us.
Used Neova Cu Recovery spray, then Neova Cu Tissue Repair cream followed by Neova Pure Copper Mask after an aggressive Ultra Clear laser to face and neck. Healed in days. The Neova Mask is amazing - cooling, soothing, healing, relieving redness.(directions state to rinse mask off but my dermatologist says to leave it on). I apply other products over the mask after it has absorbed.This was an awesome and highly informative video. Am going to purchase the Maelove Peptide Squad. You do a wonderful job and look gorgeous. Enjoy the day.
Another affordable product, given the amount of copper peptides it has (as well as other peptides and even growth factors!) is the Niche Beauty Theramid Copper peptide serum. I haven't tried it myself but it comes with a pump so no worries for dropping it on the floor :) Also, you're skin looks amazing!
I've been using The Ordinarys Copper Peptide for about 6 months ish and have been loving it. I also just bought Cosrx multi peptides serum because of you!! What do you think about The Ordinary? I dont think I've ever seen you talk about that brand. Can you do a video on that brand..please.. Thank you for what you do girl, i love all you do!!!!
I need to try the Maelove!! Love the other two... The Niche Beauty Labs Theramid looks REALLY good. I have it in my stash but haven't tried it yet. I've heard great things about it though. DEFINITELY going to try the Maelove. I've enjoyed everything I've tried from them. Thanks for sharing! Always love your recommendations!!
Hi Penn, great video! Thanks for the info. Using the Ordinary Multi peptide and Copper Peptide Serum. I noticed a big difference in my skin right away! Won’t go without copper peptides again!! ❤ PS) Have you tried the saccharomyces milky toner by the Ordinary? It’s really good!! 👍🏻
Great comparison video. I don't really like Maelove as a company, though, because a few years ago I asked what kDa size of sodium hyaluronate they used in their HA serum bc if it's very very small it can cause inflammation (the data and research on this is searchable), and I received a very curt dismissive answer that they don't disclose that information. I rolled my eyes so hard at that response because literally every other company I asked answered without an issue whatsoever because they understand why I was asking. Anyway, Maelove is off my list; there are so many great alternatives to what they sell.
Interesting! I haven’t gotten a response at all so far 🤔 I usually avoid ULTRA low MW HA bc of its inflammatory nature (although typically I consider this most when using HA with needling) so that’s sad that you weren’t able to get an answer 😕
I also LOVE the Ordinary Copper Peptide. I love it! I’ve used it for 5 years and will always use it😃 Penny I’ve always heard you can’t use Retinol and Copper Peptides together? I guess this has changed?
I’m so sorry to hear about your copper peptides and wondering what would will be impactful but affordable!! Thank you so much!! I’m 47 years old anc just hit menopause. Starting my journey. Been following you and all others at the creator event for years but been silent mostly. Love to you and yours during this summer season. 🫶👑
I feel your pain!--the same thing happened to me! Last year- my copper peptides tipped over, too! My NIOD is my favorite CP too!! It brightens my skin beyond what anything else does!!!
Such a nuisance when companies won't disclose percentages. I reached out to Revision Skincare to ask about their Vitamin K serum percentage as the Naturium product has been discontinued. They said it was a 'trade secret' lol. Love my copper peptides and have also started using Revivserums HA7X for its 7 forms of hyaluronic technologies plus other rejuvenating complexes including DNA repair enzymes. A good way to get everything in one serum. Lots of love from Kiwiland 🤗
Thanks for sharing these great products. I was completely turned off by niod when I received a product & it was almost half empty. I'm so very thankful you're here !
Great timing for this video. I’ve been on the hunt for THE perfect peptide product that has all of the peptides I’m looking for in one bottle. I was considering Medic8 for that. So I’m surprised not to see them among your list.
I love Medik8 actually! But I made the decision (in general) not to buy 500 different products to start….I often do that and I think it’s overwhelming to people (frankly myself included). So I thought I’d go a different route and try a couple first….and they happen to be amazing! ❤️
Have you ever reviewed The Ordinary copper peptides? I've used it for the last 5-6 weeks and just ordered another bottle. My skin is really looking better with it.
I use that and needless and alternate but I think Maelove could save a step and $! Thanks for addressing the ascorbic acid debate and offering your service!! @Penn.smith.skincare 🙏
Just a note on Timeless vitamin c serum (which I like).As my first bottle ran out, I ordered 2 larger ones for a fraction of price from a seller on Walmart’s site . It had no odor and was semi thick. I noticed the date on box indicated it was made over a year ago. As I didn’t want to go thru the hassle of returning the 2 bottles ($11.00), I just threw them out as I am sure they were a counterfeit product. I usually am careful of the seller, but dropped the ball on this purchase. Price was obviously too good to be true. Buyers out there beware.
Love this video! I was using NIOD copper peptides but way too expensive. Looking forward to trying Malove! Penn, what cysteamine mask do you use? And you look so amazing! Diet changes your looks for the better. I hate to give up wine but I may need to! I’ll cut out the other sugars first lol. ❤
Nich Beauty labs has a great peptide serum and they have a 15% azaliec acid serum as well and some other goodies. I love the Niod copper peptide serum that's my favorite.
Hi Penn, i’ve been using Biossance Squalane + Copper Peptide Plumping Serum, i really like it , have you tried it? I’m almost running out, i’m thinking i might try the Maelove one ❤
Thank you for the copper peptide options and the deep dive on these products!!! I am super curious about how much overlap you would say there is between the DRMTLY Needleless Serum and the Maelove Peptide Squad... it seems like there must be much less copper peptides in the DRMTLGY due to its clear color... but that there is still overlap? Curious how you would use both... and how you would choose! Also, I ordered the DRMTLGY matte version of the Universal SPF... only used it today so it's just one time... but I LOVED the non-glowy, less slippery option for some days... skin felt like it set down... just wanted to share since I know the original is your beloved.... xo
I follow Desi Stark and while she talks about very high end skincare products like Auteur, Biologique Recaherche, Valmont she really likes Maelove copper peptide too. I like having multiple influencers agreeing on skincare products.
I’ve been using the Calecim line because of Desi and my 71 yr old skin loves it. I have more combo skin and live in Florida so their hydration cream works for me. I mix the serum with the multi-action cream usually at night, love it!
@@peggycassara2810 good to know! I haven’t tried Calecim, but it’s next on my list to try. I’ve used Plated, Neogenisis, Osmosis, and Reviv so far. Have you tried any of the Auteur products?
Hi Penny - would you know the difference between methylene blue and copper peptides… been to Germany a few weeks ago and I noticed how great my friends skin was looking so I asked what she is using and she spraying methylene blue on her skin… so now I am interested in your opinion/thoughts 😅 ….
Hi Penn, which DNA rapair serum do you use? Question No. 2: what is your opinion on Medik8 Copper PCA Peptides and/or Medik8 Liquid Peptides (that include copper peptides). Also, have you heard about SNAP-8 and SNAP-6 peptides? They are supposed to be good stuff, but this is all I know and I'm curious.
Would also love to know about using the tretinoin and copper peptide together. Do you just apply the copper peptide first, let it dry down then follow up with tretinoin and moisturizer?
Can you please send the link to what products you are using in each category? Fantastic video as always , I’m 68 and totally am on board with your regimen
I would love to know your thoughts on using prescription Estriol cream on peri and post menopausal faces. Is this idea new? Does it help the signs of aging skin like sagging?
Wow I haven’t been to your channel in awhile and I do have to say you look absolutely stunning. You look younger then when I first started watching you.
Hello there Penny !!! Can you please do an updated version on the newest Retinal products available and what you’re recommending currently? I love your channel and always appreciate your honest opinion and the fact that you really do your research! So professional! Xo true fan from Kalamazoo!
Just purchased Naturium Multi-Peptide Serum. I’ve been really liking all the Naturium products I’ve tried, so thought I’d give this a shot. I also like the $25 price, before discounts. Any thoughts on this one? (Thank you always Penn!❤)
I used Dr. Pickart's Copper Peptides (CP serum, Super CP Serum and CP creams) in my early thirties - I'm now 50 - and I loved them. They were extremely effective at reducing lines, plumping skin and retaining hydration. I stopped using them only because here in Europe they are not easily available
Anyone's thoughts on Geek and Gorgeous Power peptides. They have the encapsulated copper and this is from their website: 0.001% X50 Antiaging (Copper Palmitoyl Heptapeptide-14): An encapsulated copper peptide with a high-tech delivery system - the copper peptide is encapsulated in a biocompatible polymer shell and outside this shell sits another peptide (Heptapeptide-15 Palmitate) with a strong affinity to the fibroblast receptors, guiding the copper peptide to the collagen producing fibroblast cell, promoting the gene expression of both collagen and elastin, resulting in wrinkle reduction and increased elasticity. Thanks
I have the Timeless 10% Vit C serum & the Ausceuticals 20% Vit C serum. Can I use The Ordinary's Copper peptides over the top of Vit C (ascorbic acid)? & if so how long should I let the Vit C serum absorb for (minutes wise) before putting the copper peptide serum on top?
I’m wondering about this too. Niod’s copper peptide conflicts with acids, vitamin c, retinoid, antioxidants, etc. I’m not sure if other brands reformulate the copper peptides so you can use it with actives.
Great alternatives. Saw no difference with niod started using narturium multipetide advanced serum 25 and works way better. What do you think? Tia luv your informative vids!!!❤
Hi Penn thank you for the copper peptides video agreed iv run out allso about two months now I went on the hunt and found a 5% copper peptides serum here in Australia really expensive though the serum has high levels of all the mayloves other peptides in it too should be with me this week I don't like being without them as I alternate with my retin a cream hopefully this 100 ml bottle lasts me 5 to sixs months im going to incorporate my rejuran ampoule serum with it some nights .dr picarkts copper peptides are amazing I used them with microneedlling.
I have been using the NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum as well after your recommendation and got it on the huge sale. I am interesting to try something a lot more affordable.. MAELOVE Thank you for all you do for us enjoy your journey in life and keep spreading your sunshine.
Thank you for review all the good peptide, I hope you look into Syn-Ake, and what do you think about Auteurs Germany peptide skincare line. I love to have your opinion in that line. You are the one I only trust in skincare and I am appreciate for all you do ❤😊
Hi Penn! You look gorgeous as always, your biceps are amazing! Can I use the Mealove along with the Drmtlgy Needleless Serum or would that be redundant?
I use a prescription lightening cream with tranexamic acid, azalaic acid, and niacinamide in a cream. Where should I use a copper peptide in a routine?
Hi. Great video. How would you compare the Maelove with facetheory Polypeptide serum? I’m not sure of its breakdown but the Maelove seems ‘packed’ with so many great ingredients I’m thinking of switching when what I have is finished so I’d be very interested in your thoughts. You are always so detailed with your in depth reviews. (Oh, I know it has no copper, just the peptides. Now I think I’ve answered my own question and can reduce my routine by one bottle by using the Maelove….🤪)
Where do you fit in the Dermelect in your night routine? Do you place it under your pigment inhibitors category or do you alternate with the retinol for an exfoliating night? Your skin is looking amazing btw!!👌🔥
So my Dermelect night (sleep serum) WAS just the sleep serum and Drmtlgy soothe and recovery 1-2 nights a week. I’ve changed that only in that I am using a dedicated pigment inhibitor then the sleep serum then soothe and recovery sometimes is sleep serum then dedicated pigment inhibitor then soothe and recovery (depends on the pigment inhibitor consistency). This is typically once a week right now bc I am using Biologique Recherche p50 1970 in the morning most days and I don’t want to over exfoliate. ❤️
Have you checked out the Mad About Skin Super Serum? Multipeptide including the cooper, Katrixyl. Agrigiline and an antioxidant, among other ingredients at an ibcredibly reasonable price, says the disabied senior on limited budget!
did Maelove ever provide a discount code.. I am waiting to decide maelove or the other copper peptide you suggested.. which one is best for very dry Mature skin? thanks..
Hi, I put my copper peptide on after my toner as a first step. Wait till soaked in, apply other peptides, hyaluronic acid, then wait until absorbed put retinol on, wait and then oils (I don’t like creams). I’m def an oil girl. 67 yo. Hope this helps

I feel your pain!--the same thing happened to me!
Last year- my copper peptides tipped over, too! My NIOD is my favorite CP too!! It brightens my skin beyond what anything else does!!!
Love the Ordinary's copper peptides. Very affordable and have been using it for years.
That’s awesome! 💙💙
Such a nuisance when companies won't disclose percentages. I reached out to Revision Skincare to ask about their Vitamin K serum percentage as the Naturium product has been discontinued. They said it was a 'trade secret' lol. Love my copper peptides and have also started using Revivserums HA7X for its 7 forms of hyaluronic technologies plus other rejuvenating complexes including DNA repair enzymes. A good way to get everything in one serum. Lots of love from Kiwiland 🤗
So timely. I am definitely not making it to Slowvember and either way would love options!
I do The Ordinary Copper Peptide
I've just recently started using The Ordinary Copper Pepetide, I'm 54. I just don't like the way it smells.
Me too, 100% my go to and has been for years.
@@Nikki-zg5sxyeah it irritates my skin and pills
@@Nikki-zg5sx totally understand that metallic scent, but it does disappear, which is good
I've been having trouble with it pilling. Anyone else have this issue or know how to prevent it?
Thanks for sharing these great products. I was completely turned off by niod when I received a product & it was almost half empty.
I'm so very thankful you're here !
Waiting for the release of @madaboutskin peptide serum which is an encapsulated copper peptide. Should be available in the next few weeks.
Great timing for this video. I’ve been on the hunt for THE perfect peptide product that has all of the peptides I’m looking for in one bottle. I was considering Medic8 for that. So I’m surprised not to see them among your list.
I love Medik8 actually!
But I made the decision (in general) not to buy 500 different products to start….I often do that and I think it’s overwhelming to people (frankly myself included). So I thought I’d go a different route and try a couple first….and they happen to be amazing! ❤️
Have you ever reviewed The Ordinary copper peptides? I've used it for the last 5-6 weeks and just ordered another bottle. My skin is really looking better with it.
I use that and needless and alternate but I think Maelove could save a step and $! Thanks for addressing the ascorbic acid debate and offering your service!! @Penn.smith.skincare 🙏
Just a note on Timeless vitamin c serum (which I like).As my first bottle ran out, I ordered 2 larger ones for a fraction of price from a seller on Walmart’s site . It had no odor and was semi thick. I noticed the date on box indicated it was made over a year ago. As I didn’t want to go thru the hassle of returning the 2 bottles ($11.00), I just threw them out as I am sure they were a counterfeit product. I usually am careful of the seller, but dropped the ball on this purchase. Price was obviously too good to be true. Buyers out there beware.
Timeless has sales all the time 40 percent off and sometimes even 50 percent off.. sign up for the emails.
Love this video! I was using NIOD copper peptides but way too expensive. Looking forward to trying Malove!
Penn, what cysteamine mask do you use?
And you look so amazing! Diet changes your looks for the better. I hate to give up wine but I may need to! I’ll cut out the other sugars first lol. ❤
Nich Beauty labs has a great peptide serum and they have a 15% azaliec acid serum as well and some other goodies. I love the Niod copper peptide serum that's my favorite.
How would you say that these copper peptide serums compared to Cosrx Multi Peptide? There’s such a difference in the price. Thanks
Thank you SO much for this video!!! Such great choices❤❤
I’ve been using the Biossance copper peptides…will definitely try one of these soon!!
Hi Penn, i’ve been using Biossance Squalane + Copper Peptide Plumping Serum, i really like it , have you tried it? I’m almost running out, i’m thinking i might try the Maelove one ❤
Thank you for the copper peptide options and the deep dive on these products!!! I am super curious about how much overlap you would say there is between the DRMTLY Needleless Serum and the Maelove Peptide Squad... it seems like there must be much less copper peptides in the DRMTLGY due to its clear color... but that there is still overlap? Curious how you would use both... and how you would choose! Also, I ordered the DRMTLGY matte version of the Universal SPF... only used it today so it's just one time... but I LOVED the non-glowy, less slippery option for some days... skin felt like it set down... just wanted to share since I know the original is your beloved.... xo
I follow Desi Stark and while she talks about very high end skincare products like Auteur, Biologique Recaherche, Valmont she really likes Maelove copper peptide too. I like having multiple influencers agreeing on skincare products.
I just found Desi Stark, and have been binging her content.
It's a Budget Dermatologist favorite as well.
I’ve been using the Calecim line because of Desi and my 71 yr old skin loves it. I have more combo skin and live in Florida so their hydration cream works for me. I mix the serum with the multi-action cream usually at night, love it!
@@peggycassara2810 good to know! I haven’t tried Calecim, but it’s next on my list to try. I’ve used Plated, Neogenisis, Osmosis, and Reviv so far. Have you tried any of the Auteur products?
Hi Penny - would you know the difference between methylene blue and copper peptides… been to Germany a few weeks ago and I noticed how great my friends skin was looking so I asked what she is using and she spraying methylene blue on her skin… so now I am interested in your opinion/thoughts 😅 ….
Thank you Penny. Really loving your hair ❤
Thank you so much!
Love Dr Picard copper peptides!
Hi Penn, which DNA rapair serum do you use? Question No. 2: what is your opinion on Medik8 Copper PCA Peptides and/or Medik8 Liquid Peptides (that include copper peptides). Also, have you heard about SNAP-8 and SNAP-6 peptides? They are supposed to be good stuff, but this is all I know and I'm curious.
I switched to the same copper a few months ago and have been sticking with it . I love that I can use it with tretenoin ..
Could you please share how you use the peptides with tret? I was wondering that as I was watching the video, maybe I missed it, thanks...
Would also love to know about using the tretinoin and copper peptide together. Do you just apply the copper peptide first, let it dry down then follow up with tretinoin and moisturizer?
I buy the NIOD through Beauty Bay. It's almost always on sale.
Can you please send the link to what products you are using in each category? Fantastic video as always , I’m 68 and totally am on board with your regimen
I would love to know your thoughts on using prescription Estriol cream on peri and post menopausal faces. Is this idea new? Does it help the signs of aging skin like sagging?
Check out her video, Menopause, estrogen and your SKIN, The REAL medical grade skincare.
@@db-gb5xi I will! Do you know about how long ago Penn posted it?
@@lindalove9556 About a year ago.
@@db-gb5xi Thanks so much!
Wow I haven’t been to your channel in awhile and I do have to say you look absolutely stunning.
You look younger then when I first started watching you.
I buy GHK concentrate directly from Dr Pickart…. I add to my toners. It’s a new product they carry for DIY….
Hello there Penny !!! Can you please do an updated version on the newest Retinal products available and what you’re recommending currently?
I love your channel and always appreciate your honest opinion and the fact that you really do your research! So professional! Xo true fan from Kalamazoo!
I love your videos! Which pigment inhibitor 11:45 do you recommend?! TY!
What treatment would you recommend to help smooth out the texture of skin?
What are your thoughts on the ordinary copper peptides that is currently the one I’m using ? Xx
Really great!!
Just purchased Naturium Multi-Peptide Serum. I’ve been really liking all the Naturium products I’ve tried, so thought I’d give this a shot. I also like the $25 price, before discounts. Any thoughts on this one? (Thank you always Penn!❤)
I used Dr. Pickart's Copper Peptides (CP serum, Super CP Serum and CP creams) in my early thirties - I'm now 50 - and I loved them. They were extremely effective at reducing lines, plumping skin and retaining hydration. I stopped using them only because here in Europe they are not easily available
Anyone's thoughts on Geek and Gorgeous Power peptides. They have the encapsulated copper and this is from their website:
0.001% X50 Antiaging (Copper Palmitoyl Heptapeptide-14): An encapsulated copper peptide with a high-tech delivery system - the copper peptide is encapsulated in a biocompatible polymer shell and outside this shell sits another peptide (Heptapeptide-15 Palmitate) with a strong affinity to the fibroblast receptors, guiding the copper peptide to the collagen producing fibroblast cell, promoting the gene expression of both collagen and elastin, resulting in wrinkle reduction and increased elasticity.
Thanks
I looooove this one 🤩
I have tried it not sure what to look for. What I can tell you is that it is hydrating. And when I use it with Tret, I get no peeling or sensitivity.
@@prettyninfad thanks!
I just ordered this product but it is white, now watching this video she says that it should be blue, ugh.
@@MISSYMINX261It is not blue because G&G uses encapsulated copper peptides.
Hi, question: can copper peptides (i use biossance) be used with a growth factor? (I use TNS)
Thank you for all of this including the routine!! You are the best!
Would you microneedle with any of these?
I have the Timeless 10% Vit C serum & the Ausceuticals 20% Vit C serum. Can I use The Ordinary's Copper peptides over the top of Vit C (ascorbic acid)? & if so how long should I let the Vit C serum absorb for (minutes wise) before putting the copper peptide serum on top?
I’m wondering about this too. Niod’s copper peptide conflicts with acids, vitamin c, retinoid, antioxidants, etc. I’m not sure if other brands reformulate the copper peptides so you can use it with actives.
Great alternatives. Saw no difference with niod started using narturium multipetide advanced serum 25 and works way better. What do you think? Tia luv your informative vids!!!❤
Hi Penn thank you for the copper peptides video agreed iv run out allso about two months now I went on the hunt and found a 5% copper peptides serum here in Australia really expensive though the serum has high levels of all the mayloves other peptides in it too should be with me this week I don't like being without them as I alternate with my retin a cream hopefully this 100 ml bottle lasts me 5 to sixs months im going to incorporate my rejuran ampoule serum with it some nights .dr picarkts copper peptides are amazing I used them with microneedlling.
Which one is 5%? That sounds so intriguing to me!!
@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE it's intense copper binding ghkcu 5% + tetrapeptide 7 cellular repair serum made by double bay cosmesuiticals Sydney Australia.
Mad Hippie! It’s really good
I have been using the NIOD Copper Amino Isolate Serum as well after your recommendation and got it on the huge sale. I am interesting to try something a lot more affordable.. MAELOVE
Thank you for all you do for us enjoy your journey in life and keep spreading your sunshine.
Thank you for review all the good peptide, I hope you look into Syn-Ake, and what do you think about Auteurs Germany peptide skincare line. I love to have your opinion in that line. You are the one I only trust in skincare and I am appreciate for all you do ❤😊
I have the Maelove one and I absolutely love it and everything from that brand!!
Hi Penn! You look gorgeous as always, your biceps are amazing! Can I use the Mealove along with the Drmtlgy Needleless Serum or would that be redundant?
What do you think of NIOD Gel Copper Peptide?
I use a prescription lightening cream with tranexamic acid, azalaic acid, and niacinamide in a cream. Where should I use a copper peptide in a routine?
So helpful Penn and a timely reminder to top up 🙏💚
Thank you for all your amazing videos, Penny!!! ❤ Is The Ordinary Multi peptide + Copper peptide 1% also recommended? 🌷
Yes! That’s an excellent product!!
@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE Thank you, dear Penny 💛
Thank you so much, you are so smart, you have the best information ❤
That is so nice of you!!!
What are your thoughts on the Eco Face Platinum LED Mask?
Thank you for sharing your amazing/pm routines. Very helpful.
You did not mention the ordinary copper peptides. It makes me wonder why
I didn’t use them 😊
I love this one too.
The Maelove is particularly interesting because it has a unique encapsulated delivery system.
Angel, I use the IS Clinical Copper Firming Mist . Before after during and thru out the day. Love the mist. Is it the same thing ? ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for the info!! Has anyone used the DERMA-E Ultra Lift DMAE copper peptides serum? ❤😊
Hi. Great video. How would you compare the Maelove with facetheory Polypeptide serum? I’m not sure of its breakdown but the Maelove seems ‘packed’ with so many great ingredients I’m thinking of switching when what I have is finished so I’d be very interested in your thoughts. You are always so detailed with your in depth reviews. (Oh, I know it has no copper, just the peptides. Now I think I’ve answered my own question and can reduce my routine by one bottle by using the Maelove….🤪)
Hi, is it possible to share what lipstick you're wearing in this video, please. Thank you in advance. Great video btw...
Great video. Always so informative. Thank you!
I Love the one from Naturium❤!!!
Where do you fit in the Dermelect in your night routine? Do you place it under your pigment inhibitors category or do you alternate with the retinol for an exfoliating night? Your skin is looking amazing btw!!👌🔥
So my Dermelect night (sleep serum) WAS just the sleep serum and Drmtlgy soothe and recovery 1-2 nights a week. I’ve changed that only in that I am using a dedicated pigment inhibitor then the sleep serum then soothe and recovery sometimes is sleep serum then dedicated pigment inhibitor then soothe and recovery (depends on the pigment inhibitor consistency). This is typically once a week right now bc I am using Biologique Recherche p50 1970 in the morning most days and I don’t want to over exfoliate. ❤️
Can you use copper peptides if using tretinoin as your night time skincare routine ?
Yes 💙
Have you checked out the Mad About Skin Super Serum? Multipeptide including the cooper, Katrixyl. Agrigiline and an antioxidant, among other ingredients at an ibcredibly reasonable price, says the disabied senior on limited budget!
Quick question on copper peptides. Will this increase facial hair, not the fine vellus hair but thicker facial hair?
did Maelove ever provide a discount code.. I am waiting to decide maelove or the other copper peptide you suggested.. which one is best for very dry Mature skin? thanks..
Can someone tell me how to incorporate retinal and copper peptides in the same night routine??? THANKS!
Hi, I put my copper peptide on after my toner as a first step. Wait till soaked in, apply other peptides, hyaluronic acid, then wait until absorbed put retinol on, wait and then oils (I don’t like creams). I’m def an oil girl. 67 yo. Hope this helps
Have you tried the CosRx Peptide product? I believe it’s got around 7 peptides in it, including copper, and the price is great!
Hi Penn, great video! I’ve been using a copper peptide body serum by iota that feels divine - Supercloud Body Serum. Would love your opinion on this product and the brand. 😊
Oh my gosh I’m looking it up right now!!
Thank you
What was the name of the first copper peptides you used? Also do you recommend the maelove instead or which is your favorite?
NIOD CAIS
I do recommend the Maelove, yes.
I’ve ordered the Theramid copper peptide product and I have high hopes for it so check that one out too 💙💙
