Retinol is the gold standard anti-aging ingredient, renowned for its ability to enhance cell turnover, visibly reduce fine lines, and improve skin texture. Our Retinol Complex 0.5% takes these benefits to the next level by incorporating vitamins C and E into its formula. This combination not only amplifies the anti-aging effects of retinol, but also helps to soothe and nourish the skin, making it an excellent choice for those looking to maintain a youthful, vibrant complexion.


3 Ways to Help Skin Adjust to Retinol:

  1. The Sandwich Method

    • Applying a moisturizer before retinol helps keep dryness at bay, and moisturizing afterwards helps soothe and calm any irritation. 

  1. The Build-Up Method

    • Start slow. The biggest mistake people make is applying retinol every night. Use a pea-sized amount once or twice a week. As your skin adjusts, you can begin using it more frequently.

  1. The Rinse-Off Method

    • If your skin is sensitive, you can always use the Rinse-Off Method. Apply retinol to moisturized skin and let it sit for 5 minutes. Then gently wash it off. Increase the amount of time to 10 minutes, then 15, then 30, until skin can handle overnight application.

 

 


Directions

  • Apply sparingly (pea size amount) over face, avoiding eye area.
  • Allow to absorb before applying additional products.
  • Can be used once a day at bedtime or as directed by physician.
  • Initial application should be twice a week for first week and increase use after skin shows minimal signs of irritation.
  • Use of sun protection is highly recommended.
  • Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Very pleased I just use it couple times a week because it makes the dead skin cells on your face slowly peel off. Skin is soft seems more refreshed youthful

effective retinol

This is exactly what it claims to be, truly works (I would know bc I did peel at some point because of it) but I eventually started sandwiching this with my moisturizer and had no more flaking. Definitely recommend!

Retinol

I have only used it once so far because it made my skin dry. I will try it again with using moisturizer first and then the retinol.
