Highlights
Summary
Drunk Elephant's Protini Polypeptide Firming Moisturizer combines signal peptides, growth factors, supportive amino acids, and pygmy waterlily for immediate improvement in the appearance of skin's tone, texture, and firmness.
Benefits

Key Ingredients
- Signal Peptide Complex (Growth Factors): nine signal peptides (made up of amino acids, which form proteins in the skin) bind moisture to skin - plumping, firming, and restoring bounce

Disaster
It felt great the first three days and then I had an allergic reaction and it burned my face. My skin began to peel, I had red dry splotches all around my mouth and chin and temple areas and it took 5 days to heal. It looked like a chemical burn. I'm giving my face a wk off and trying it again. ...

- Q
Can you wear this at night after applying a prescription retinoid?
- Asked by Beauty Buff #2
- Official Answer By Drunk Elephant - Brand EngageHi, thank you for your question! Unfortunately, we can't say with 100% certainty that it's safe to use outside products with Drunk Elephant products because we don't know exactly every ingredient in that product, while our line has been clinically tested to work together. However, knowing that prescription retinol is very high in concentration and could cause irritation when used with a product that contains other exfoliants like our Protini™ Polypeptide Firming Refillable Moisturizer, we'd recommend instead using it (or mixing it) with any Drunk Elephant retinol treatment—A-Passioni or A-Gloei! We hope this helps! -Destiny, Drunk Elephant Skin ExpertWas this answer helpful to you
