In reply to MimiR. Mimi, just because you don't agree with one point, it doesn't mean the whole post is wrong. Can you please give me the link to the peptides research so I can check it out?

This is terrible advice. BHAs and AHAs work best at a pH below 4.5 while peptides can be destabilized below a pH of 5.

I am looking up peptides because i have a conture cream called “Safi rania Gold” which contains “oligopeptides”.

In reply to VIT C. I'm less worried about the ph of ready made products because they usually also contain moisturizing and soothing ingredients. I've used their serum till the last drop and never experienced any side effects. But. if that worries you, there are plenty of products with a higher ph you can choose from.

In reply to Gio. Are you ever worried about the acidity of the skinactives vitamin c serum? On their website it says it has a ph of 2.1 which is almost near the ph of lemon juice no? I bought 2 of them when they were on sale and I like the ingredients but the acidity worries me a bit sometimes.
