It’s no secret that skin naturally evolves over time; loss of bounce, firmness and structure are all part and parcel of growing older. If you’re noticing that your skin is changing, join the club! Here at Ella & Jo, we believe that ageing is a privilege, so rather than chasing youth, we’ve been busy developing a product that can support our complexion as we become older and wiser.
Introducing the latest addition to our all-star line-up at Ella & Jo: Advanced Skin Support Serum. This multi-peptide serum might just be what your skin has been waiting for, and we’re here to give you all the details. Read on to learn what a peptide serum is and how to use it, plus discover a step-by-step guide on how to layer it into your current skincare ritual.
What is Advanced Skin Support Serum?
Advanced Skin Support Serum is a multi-peptide serum for face and neck that supports the skin’s structure, firmness and resilience, strengthening skin from within.
Collagen and elastin are the building blocks that give skin its strength and elasticity, but their levels naturally decline over time. So where do peptides come in? Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act like tiny messengers, helping the skin to do what it does naturally; this includes supporting the skin’s natural collagen production.
Peptides don’t replace collagen. Instead, they support the processes involved in maintaining it. This difference is important because topical collagen molecules are generally too large to penetrate the skin effectively, whereas peptides are small enough to interact with the skin.
Advanced Skin Support Serum’s multi-peptide formula combines Advanced Multi Peptide Complex with Tripeptide-29 to create a next-generation treatment. It’s layerable and designed for use both morning and evening on the face and neck.

Key Ingredients in Advanced Skin Support Serum
We’ve already touched on the hero ingredients in this new formula: now, let’s look at the peptide complex benefits in a little more detail.
Advanced Multi Peptide Multi-Peptide Serum Complex helps to improve the look of firmness and elasticity, giving your skin natural bounce while visibly smoothing the appearance of fine lines.
Meanwhile, Tripeptide-29 works with the skin’s natural collagen processes to help maintain its structure, leaving the skin looking smoother.
Alongside these powerful peptides, Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum contains niacinamide to help reduce the appearance of pores, hyaluronic acid to hydrate, squalane to nourish the skin barrier and PHA (Gluconolactone) to refine skin texture – the perfect blend to help your skin to feel healthy and supported.
Not only is this serum packed with clever actives, but it is also a joy to use with a lightweight, layerable texture that’s easy to slot into your current skincare routine.
Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum is pregnancy-safe and as always with Ella & Jo products, it’s also cruelty-free.
How to Use Advanced Skin Support Serum Step-by-Step
Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum is designed for daily use, morning and evening and should be layered over other serums before moisturiser and SPF. Here’s a full breakdown of how to use it in your skincare ritual:
Step 1: Cleanse
Start with clean skin. Use your usual morning or evening cleanser and pat your skin dry with a fluffy towel.
Step 2: Apply any other serums
Now, apply any serums that you include in your usual ritual. Whether you’re loyal to your vitamin C, Hydrating Hyaluronic Serum or use a retinol, there’s no need to drop any of your favourites.
Step 3: Apply Advanced Skin Support Serum
Apply a generous layer of Advanced Support Multi-Peptide Serum to your face, neck and décolletage. It’s lightweight and designed to go over your other serums, rather than replace them.
Step 4: Moisturise and protect
In the morning, follow with moisturiser and finish with SPF. In the evening, follow with a rich night cream or nourishing face oil.
If you’re ever in doubt about where Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum should come in your routine, follow our layering order: Cleanse → other serums → Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum → moisturiser or face oil → SPF (AM).
We love that we can get all the benefits of peptides without needing to switch out existing products or sacrifice other actives. This serum is so easy to use!
Peptides vs Collagen: What’s the Difference?
Peptides are not collagen. But they still play an important role in skincare.
Collagen is a dermal fibre that gives skin its strength, whereas peptides are short chains of amino acids that can act as ‘messengers’, helping to support the skin’s natural collagen-producing processes.
So, peptides don’t replace collagen directly. Instead, they encourage skin to keep doing what it does naturally.
We took this approach to collagen support in Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum as topical collagen molecules are generally too large to penetrate effectively. Peptides are smaller and can interact with the skin to support its natural processes.
This is one of the reasons why so many experts recommend using a peptide serum for firmness.
Who Should Use Advanced Skin Support Serum?
Do you feel like your skin is changing? Perhaps you’ve noticed that your complexion looks tired or makeup isn’t sitting as well as it used to?
If you answered yes to any or all of the above, then this product is for you! It’s for all of us who are starting to experience a loss of bounce, firmness and structure as our skin matures.
There’s no minimum age requirement for Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum, but we designed it with women aged 40+ in mind, who want to support their skin without overhauling their whole skincare ritual. It’s a great peptide serum for mature skin types.
Give your skin the support it deserves as it changes. Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum is Ella & Jo’s new multi-peptide face serum, made to help skin feel firmer, stronger and more resilient over time. Shop Advanced Support Multi-Peptide Serum today.
FAQs
-
What does a peptide serum do?
A peptide serum delivers peptides to the skin to help support its natural processes including those involved in collagen production. With consistent use, some peptides can help maintain the skin’s structure, firmness and resilience.
-
Does Advanced Skin Support Serum contain collagen?
No, Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum has a multi-peptide complex that helps to support natural collagen-producing processes.
-
Can I use peptide serum with retinol?
Yes, peptide serums can be used with retinol in your daily skincare ritual. We recommend applying your retinol first and waiting for it to absorb fully before applying Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum. Just remember to finish with SPF every morning – this is especially important when using any retinol products.
-
Are peptides better than collagen?
Peptides and collagen work differently, so one is not necessarily better than the other. Collagen is a dermal fibre that gives skin its strength, while some peptides can support the skin’s natural collagen production when applied topically. This can help to improve skin’s smoothness and resilience.
-
Do you use peptides in the morning or at night?
Peptides can be used both in your morning and evening skincare ritual. We always recommend using Advanced Skin Support Multi-Peptide Serum twice daily to get the best results.
