To get your skin truly ready for spring, you need more than just a good cream. The secret lies in combining effective exfoliation with intensive care. In this blog, we dive into the world of skin renewal and focus on the HydroPeptide brand. With the new Resurface and Repair Peptide Pads, you can take your spring routine to the next level. Get ready for silky smooth skin and that radiant spring glow!
Resurface and Repair Peptide Pads
This is not just any exfoliant; it is a two-step peel and peptide treatment in one. It works as follows:
-
Step 1 gently exfoliates the skin by removing dead skin cells, tackling clogged pores and excess sebum
-
Step 2 is a peptide-rich treatment wipe that immediately helps to restore the skin barrier and strengthen the structural integrity of the skin
What makes this product perfect for your spring routine is the addition of a mild retinol. This stimulates cell renewal without irritating the skin, which is perfect for those who suffer from rough, dull, or mature skin.
How to use it?
-
Apply step 1 to cleansed, dry skin
-
Leave on for 5 to 15 minutes
-
Then apply step 2, the peptide-rich treatment wipe
-
Follow with your other skincare products. The pads prepare the skin to better absorb active ingredients
-
Always finish with a high SPF during the day, as your new, fresh skin is extra sensitive to the spring sun

Frequently asked questions about exfoliation
During the winter months, your skin's natural renewal process slows down, causing dead skin cells to accumulate more quickly and creating a dull complexion. Proper exfoliation removes this blockage, allowing your skin to breathe and glow again.
Yes, these pads are suitable for daily use on most skin types. The unique second step neutralizes the acids and nourishes the skin immediately, preventing irritation.
Yes, provided you choose the right strength. The unique two-step method neutralizes the acids in the second step. This means your skin cells are not unnecessarily irritated, but instead nourished with restorative peptides.
When exfoliating, you use a product with grains to manually and physically rub dead skin cells off the skin. Exfoliation, such as with HydroPeptide pads, works on a chemical basis: acids dissolve the 'glue' between the cells, causing the dead skin cells to detach in a much gentler and more even way without damaging healthy skin. In addition, the active ingredients in exfoliation can penetrate deeper to stimulate the renewal of new skin cells from within.
Yes, this happens when you exfoliate too often or with products that are too strong, damaging the healthy skin barrier instead of just removing dead skin cells. You can recognize this by redness, irritation, a tight feeling, or an unnatural "plastic-like" shine on your skin. To prevent this, it is important to build up your use gradually and always finish your routine with restorative ingredients to keep your new skin cells healthy.
