• Gentler on Skin: Compared to higher Retinol concentrations, the 0.5% formula provides a more gradual approach, making it ideal for those new to Retinol or with sensitive skin.
• Reduces Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Retinol stimulates collagen production, a key protein that helps maintain skin’s youthful elasticity and plumpness, leading to a reduction in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
• Improves Skin Texture: By encouraging cell turnover, Retinol helps to smooth out rough, uneven skin texture, revealing a brighter and more refined complexion.
• Squalane for Comfort: This plant-derived oil mimics the skin’s natural sebum, keeping the formula lightweight and comfortable to wear.

How to Use:

• Nighttime Use Only: Apply a few drops of the serum to your cleansed and toned face in the evening only. Avoid the delicate eye area.
• Start Slow: Introduce Retinol gradually into your routine. Begin with using it 1-2 times a week and increase frequency as your skin tolerates it.
• Moisturize Well: Retinol can cause dryness, especially when first starting to use it. It’s crucial to follow with a hydrating moisturizer to keep your skin comfortable.
• Sun Protection is Crucial: As Retinol increases sun sensitivity, always wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day, even on cloudy days.
