There's a lot of excitement around our new OS-01 BODY SPF โ and for good reason. Formulated with non-nano zinc oxide, a dynamic blend of antioxidants, and our proprietary OS-01 peptide, itโs goes beyond protecting from UV damage to promote overall skin longevity. (1) This might leave you wondering whether you still need OS-01 BODY. While it's true that OS-01 BODY SPF shares the same concentration of the OS-01 peptide as OS-01 BODY, to maximize your skinโs health, layering both products can be a game changer.
01
OS-01 BODY Actually Delivers More Peptide
As mentioned, both our SPF and moisturizer boast the same level of the OS-01 peptide. But since OS-01 BODY SPF also contains non-nano zinc oxide, our preferred UV filter, it creates a physical barrier โ protecting your skin against the sunโs damaging rays while slightly hindering the penetrative abilities of OS-01 peptide.
So, if youโre thinking of swapping out OS-01 BODY for OS-01 BODY SPF in your morning ritual, youโre not giving your skin the full peptide punch it could get. By using both products together, you get all the benefits of the OS-01 peptide, plus the broad-spectrum UV protection you need.ย

How To Use OS-01 BODY and OS-01 BODY SPF Together
Integrating both of these star players into your skin care routine is simple. Hereโs how to get started.
Your Morning Routine
Starting with clean skin, apply OS-01 BODY first to get the most of the OS-01 peptide. Then, apply OS-01 BODY SPF. With broad-spectrum SPF 30+ and PA+++ protection, OS-01 BODY SPF blocks out more than 97 percent of harmful UVB rays and 88 - 94% UVA rays, so itโs essential whether youโre indoors or outside. (2, 3) OS-01 BODY SPF is also waterproof for up to 80 minutes, and non-comedogenic making it lightweight and suitable for everyday use and skin types. Make sure to touch up throughout the day, or every two hours you spend in the sun, to give your skin the best level of protection.
A little tip for those with deeper skin tones: apply your sunscreen gradually and blend between layers until you've achieved perfect coverage. You can find more information on sunscreen applications hereto learn more about how much sunscreen to apply!
Your Evening Routine
In the evening, itโs important to shower first to rinse off any zinc oxide residue from OS-01 BODY SPF before reapplying OS-01 BODY. Cleansing off this layer at night ensures your skin is primed and ready to absorb all that the OS-01 peptide has to offer.
Next time youโre lining up your skincare products, donโt just think about protecting or moisturizing, but instead, how you can give your skin that extra loving care it deserves with a potent combination of OS-01 BODY and OS-01 BODY SPF. Your skin will thank you.
Key Takeaways:
- Using OS-01 BODY and OS-01 BODY SPF together maximizes the skin benefits by combining the deep moisturizing properties of OS-01 BODY with the protective benefits of OS-01 BODY SPF.
- While both products contain the same level of OS-01 peptide, OS-01 BODY allows for greater peptide absorption into the skin due to its formulation without non-nano zinc oxide, which is present in OS-01 BODY SPF and can inhibit peptide penetration.
- OS-01 BODY SPF should be applied in the morning as the last step of your skincare routine, whereas OS-01 BODY can be used flexibly in the morning or evening, catering to your skin's needs at different times.
- For those with deeper skin tones, it's advised to apply OS-01 BODY SPF gradually, blending between layers to achieve perfect coverage without leaving any visible residue.
- Regular use of these products, even in smaller amounts, is crucial to maintain the protective and rejuvenating effects of the OS-01 peptide on the skin.
