Unfortunately, any improvements to the skin aren’t exactly dramatic.
However, this was expected as with skincare products, there’s always the question of the whether the skincare ingredients are small enough to absorb into the skin efficiently.
And some peptides aren’t exactly “small”.
Perhaps after a bit more time, the improvements might be much more clear.

The final results were a bit surprising.
We expected this serum to make a bigger difference to the skin.
Especially the fine lines and wrinkles.
However, our before and after results show only slight improvements in 30 days of using The Ordinary’s “Buffet” Peptide serum.
This has us wondering if the size of the peptides used in this serum are too big and cannot be absorbed deep into the skin, where it might be more effective.
