Skincare has always been a favourite of mine. Movie nights with my friends were our excuse for face masks: clay masks, sheet masks, at-home facials and all kinds of spa treatments. None of it was planned. It happened in random moments of spontaneity.

So when MAKE launched a beauty line, I was thrilled. I ordered the Precision Skincare Stack on launch day, and it is on its way to me now.

What is on my shelf today

These days, most of what I put on my face comes from The Ordinary. The brand is known for formulas built around one ingredient at a time, a niacinamide in one bottle, a hyaluronic acid in another.

Both of those ingredients sit in the REVIVED formula, next to two far less familiar ones: peptides from the Sacha Inchi seed and goji berry exosomes.

Darren Hardy's The Compound Effect, which I just finished, rests on one formula: "Small, Smart Choices + Consistency + Time = Radical Difference." A face mask on a movie night is a lovely small choice. A routine repeated every evening is the consistency part of the formula. If you already spend on skincare every month, you are making those small choices anyway, and what gets compounded is whatever is inside the bottles you pick.

The science that got me excited

MAKE calls itself the Natural Peptide Company, and Precision Skincare is that idea applied to skin. Its Chief Science Officer, Dr. Mark Bartlett, writes on each Precision Skincare product page: "When we understand skin as a living communication network, peptides become more than ingredients. They become precision skincare ingredients designed to support visibly healthy-looking skin."

The system follows what MAKE calls the SPA Method. Signal: peptides that support targeted skin signaling for visible renewal, firmness and resilience. Preserve: antioxidants that help reduce visible oxidative stress. Amplify: hydration that helps improve the look of texture, elasticity and radiance. One step works from the inside, two from the outside.

What MAKE launched

• RENEWED, the step you drink: a hibiscus berry powder with collagen peptides, mixed into water once a day.
• REVIVED, the serum: Sacha Inchi peptides, goji berry exosomes, niacinamide and hyaluronic acid.
• REPLENISHED, the emulsion: plant peptides, plant stem-cell extracts, ceramides and bakuchiol, smoothed on after the serum.

I already drink a collagen every day and RESTORED every night, so a skin step that lives in a glass of water fits a habit I have. Every ingredient, price and step of the routine is in my full guide to how MAKE Wellness Precision Skincare works.

My Stack is on its way

It shipped on October 2 and is still in transit. I have not used any of it yet.

Since October 1, RENEWED, REVIVED and REPLENISHED are also sold one at a time, so you can start with a single step. A first order of any MAKE product comes with a 60-day guarantee: a full refund if you ask within 60 days of delivery, no return needed. First-time customers get $10 off a first order of $99 or more through my link, and MAKE ships to the US and Canada, priced in USD.

If your movie nights end in face masks too, see the system I ordered, with every price and the order the three steps go on in. For the research side of peptides and skin, I also wrote about what peptides do for skin and how collagen peptides work.
