Core Benefits
Anti-Aging Support: Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen and elastin production.
Texture and Tone: Accelerates cell turnover to smooth uneven skin texture and brighten uneven skin tone.
Deep Hydration: Uses squalane as a base to nourish the skin, helping it withstand the potentially drying effects of retinol.
Environmental Protection: Contains antioxidant properties that help protect the skin from environmental damage.
Steps to Use
Evening Only: Apply this product only as part of your nighttime skincare routine, as sunlight can degrade retinol and reduce its effectiveness.
Cleanse and Dry: Start with a clean, dry face. Ensure skin is completely dry before application to minimize irritation.
Application Order: Apply a small amount (a few drops or pea-sized) to the face after water-based serums but before heavier treatments like oils or moisturizers.
Avoid Sensitive Areas: Massage gently into the skin, avoiding the immediate eye and mouth areas.
Build Tolerance: Start by using it 2–3 times per week. Gradually increase the frequency as your skin builds tolerance, potentially working up to nightly use.
Follow with Moisturizer: Apply a moisturizer afterward to lock in hydration and protect the skin barrier.
Refrigerate After Opening: To maintain the stability of the retinol, store the bottle in the refrigerator once opened and use within three months.
