She mentions she’s on altreno now .. (prescription tretinoin that is SUPER non irritating despite being at .05%) my guess is that this has a lot to do with why her skin has been looking particularly good lately
can we get an updated routine video at some point? bc your skin has been looking so good these past few months and I really wanna know what has changed :)
I agree with others, whatever you've been doing has really been working! A lot less redness in your neck, and your face is glowing. Thanks for the amazing tips, as always!
You’re looking ten years younger. Whatever you’re doing keep doing it, you’re skin is looking amazing Sarah. ♥️ I’m just finishing up one peptide serum then I’m ordering the ordinary copper peptides. I think you’re right, they’re going ti be the big thing for 2024. Thanks as always for another amazing video. Anti aging is my interest as I’m approaching 50 so this video was amazing. ❤
I would love it if you did a weeklong, ideal skin care routine using these products! It can all be a little overwhelming, and the guide would be so helpful.
I don't really use copper peptide for antiaging, but its shockingly the only thing that helps my dermatitis. It's also the only active I can use ever since I developed dermatitis.
can you put on copper peptides and then wait 30 minutes and put on vitamin c (ascorbic acid)? Also, can you use copper peptides after trentinoin if your skin is ok with it? I believe that the rule against retinoic acid is because of possible irritation and NOT because there is a chemical reaction which cancels them out. Is this what you think?
Thank you so much for this - and for everything else you've done in terms of sharing your skincare experience, you're such an inspiration! I hear you on the peptides front, and yet my menopausal, extra sensitive skin struggles with every single type of peptide product I've tried so far... What is your current peptide routine, or what would be a minimalistic round of products to use alongside with a peptide serum? I've done toner + centella ampoule + peptide + moisturizer and it's probably been too much cause my skin got irritated for days after that.
I agree with everyone, your skin is glowing. It sounds like copper peptides is the most recent change in staple ingredient stars in your routine? Probably along with the telom erase serum. Fantastic results! Do you think any of these has helped with your neck sensitivity?
I have just started using a retinal product which actually has 0.3 % retinal - its the Skintra Liquid Happiness and costs around 15€ (16$). In comparison the Medik8 Retinal 0.2 % costs around 10 times the price!! The Skintra is a really nice product!
Hi Sara! I'm working my way through a bottle of the Biossance Squalane + Copper Peptides. It is pleasant to use, cooling and very hydrating and spreads easily, but beyond that I don't feel like it does anything special for my skin. The best copper peptide product I've used is the Niod Copper Amino Isolate Serium, which did immediately noticeable, amazing things for the texture of my skin, smoothed it, plumped it and refined pores like nothing else I'd ever tried before but it's too expensive for me to repurchase. Right now I am waiting on an order for FaceTheory's new Polypeptide Collagen Boosting Serum S8 Pro, about the same price as the Biossance so not cheap but more affordable than the Niod. I am looking forward to seeing what that can do for my 63 year old skin. Your skin looks great btw, whatever you're doing it is working!
I will just say that the ordinary works on me 1,000 times better than the biossance. I used a whole thing of the biossance and noticed zero difference but 1 use of the ordinary and I was kicking myself for wasting all the time and money on the biossance. It’s pretty affordable.
There are so many great Korean skin lines and Korean products that are affordable and incredibly effective, that I find it hard to know which ones to use, and how to layer them. I’m not really complaining because it such an amazing development in my life but at the same time… I don’t know if it’s OK to be mixing all these different serums on my face from all these different lines. The one product I would really like to find is an eye product without any oils or glycerin, for puffy, undereyes and lids as well, to relieve the dryness, but without adding to the puffiness. If you find one like that, I would love a review on it as I’m sure others with puffy eyes would also love. I cannot use anything on my eyes right now because it always makes my eyes puffier.
My God your skin looks amazing,! I have been doing Microneddling along with BioRepeel and its made a huge difference in my tone and lines. BTW, you should Niche beauty lab's Copper Peptide at 3%, it has helped me so much after microneedling.
My Evening routine is focused around my Dermatica Formula which is Tretinoin 0.1% , Azelaic Acid 15% & Niacinimide 4% . Double cleanse , Isntree Onion Toner , Tret Formula & Ceramide Moisturiser . 👏❤️😊🇬🇧
Yeah it’s still a challenge to work around Vit C, Retinol, and any acids! But I end up defaulting to the Buffer + Copper more often than any of the rest. I push myself to use Vit C for day instead of that. Now that summer has just about ended, I’m gonna be going back to more retinol at night. The acids at night too, I stopped using as much because rotating two routines was hard/fussy enuf lol. Sometimes I write it down in my planner.
I like the Neogen hi R exosome but it really isn’t the same as protini. Protini uses a very specific peptide complex from a certain manufacturer in a higher concentration with a higher concentration of amino acids. It’s also a lot lighter weight than Neogen. Neogen does use really good ingredients but if I’ve learned anything about Korean skincare besides the amazing textures, they like to list hero ingredients MUCH higher in the ingredients list than they actually are they are able to list ingredients completely different there and have a cosmetics regulation that doesn’t require the 1% line above preservatives the way the US does. In my opinion that peptide complex that is famous in Protini-which I’m starting to see with a few American brands-Stratia Interfaces newest formula I believe uses it but excludes the amino acids. With a majority of peptides on the market, if there is no delivery system like encapsulation in a copolymer to get it to where it needs to go in the skin, then it is nothing more than a hydration ingredient
I didn't know that about Korean skincare ( regarding the ingredient list ) Thank you for sharing. Time for me to take a break from K-Beauty. I've never tried protini but seems like alot people love it.
I use the Hylamide Copper Peptides. So sad, they discontinued it. I alternate every other day in the morning using Vitamin C one day and the copper peptides the next. What do you think is similar to the Hylamide? I’m going to be so sad after I use mine up 😢
My favorites and repeat anti-aging are The ordinary with copper peptides and the Reviv Ultimate serum. I am trying to simplify my skincare routine and these two products check a lot of boxes.
For the gf ultimate serum, can you use it with retinoid, vitamin c or aha/bha? Like do you have to pick a separate day just for this specific serum? Thanks!
I’m almost done w the Vit C serum I’ve been using and was eager to try G&G’s after all the raves about it. I have been wondering what your review is of the Beauty of Joseon Vit C serum though!
I’m trying the Ordinary now, working in with my routine now. I took advantage of a FGF and ordered the vitabrid wrinkle cream with powder c. Confusing since it’s a peptide that mixes powder c. I use P&L glass serum and mix bye co powder C, tipped with a sunscreen for morning serum. Thoughts on vitabrid? Did u review? I agree with other commenters your skin is looking amazing.
I have tried copper peptides so many times and it seems my skin hates it. Is there any one else out there like me? I end up giving them away because I know it is so good? I wonder what I am doing wrong or simply my skin cannot use it. I have tried minimal routine and my skin still reacts bad to it.
Sarah what about coppe peptide called ..neodermyl;; do you know anything about; here i. Greece two or three companies in dermacosmetics and organic skincare sell it!! Please let me know about. Here in greece thessalia, volos we had flouds and our water is still not drinkable so...we keep our money for good reasons
Thank you Sarah anything I can do to make my skin look like yours that would be great I appreciate all your hard work Hi handsome Ike ❤❤ give him a kiss for me
Hi Sara, you mentioned that copper peptides don’t work with vit c or retinoids. Can I use retinal in the evening…and copper peptides in the morning(instead of my vitamin c?). So the retinal and the peptides would be used approximately 12 hours apart. Please share your thoughts.. and thanks!
Yes you can :) also you can technically use copper peptides with retinoids but they tend to add to the exfoliating nature of retinoids and can cause irritation so many choose not to. Most of the rules with copper peptides have to do with causing irritation, with the exception of maybe acids and vitamin C (if copper peptides and vitamin C mix they can make the chemical in self-tanner that can turn your skin orange so don't do that lol) If you don't take my word email Deciem and they should tell you pretty much the same thing hope this helps :)
Wait?! You can't use copper peptides with retinol? I have been using it with my retinal for weeks now.. Is it just more irritating or do they cancel each other out somehow?
For some people the combination is too irritating, but certainly not for everyone! I’m going to give it a try before I increase my tretinoin percentage.
So it’s a no on the same night as tretinoin? Even if you leave it half an hour? What do you think? Great post I use the perricone cold plasma serum with copper peptide. It’s blueish 😂
I wouldn't waste your money on the Peach & Lily Retinal Serum. It stains your clothes, pillow cases, bedding. It turns you yellow. I couldn't return mine so I ended up throwing it in the trash. I really don't get the hype over Peach & Lily products 🤷♀️ I'm really interested in trying G&G a game but does it turn you yellow & stain your clothes like Peach & Lily ??
Need to be very skeptical to all the products pitched on RUclips. Just like any Growth serums, I yet to see someone show me real results. I just think that Sara likes to talk a lot about nada...
@@rhileynnna I know its suppose to be yellow lol but it shouldn't be like this. No matter how little you use or how long you rub it in that bright yellow doesn't go away. I'd still have yellow residue on my skin after washing my face the following morning. I wanted to share my experience because it does stain fabrics.
I use the G&G and it is yellow. I’m just careful with it, but yeah it’s kinda a pain. I started buying darker pjs or lower neckline ones for this reason and I put it on while I’m in a towel/robe and let it absorb well. That really seems to solve that problem. I’m also usually waiting for my body oil to seep in too so it works out. Taking that time to air out has been really beneficial to my skin & stress too I think. 😊
Yay!!!! I’m using those!!!! Love the CosRx and ordinary copper peptides !!! How do u use the lactic acid just alone or put a moisturizer on top? I got some of the Drunk Elephant Lactic acid coming in samples and I have the 5% ordinary bottle haven’t used bc I’m not sure how to incorporate… thanks !!! 🤍🤍🤍 I love the Peter Thomas Roth glycolic acid 15% retinol 1.5% even smoother serum it’s magical! Used it all last winter ❄️
Not a “read” on you, but ive been watching for years now and whatever you have been doing lately is definitely working-your skin is so good!
Right! Her skin is looking great!
She’s told us she has had micro needling as well as uses most of these products 👍

Your skin is goals❤️
Can't wait for the copper peptides video! Lots of differing info out there. Abby Young did some research and is using it with tret?
I use the Hylamide Copper Peptides. So sad, they discontinued it. I alternate every other day in the morning using Vitamin C one day and the copper peptides the next. What do you think is similar to the Hylamide? I’m going to be so sad after I use mine up 😢
This is beautiful hair color for her.
YAAY glad Ike is feeling better
