How To Use
- After cleansing. Apply a pea amount to the face in the PM as part of your skincare regimen, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Avoid contact with eyes during application and rinse off. Do not use with other retinoid treatments.
- This should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Retinol can cause irritation, redness, and peeling, especially around the eyes and mouth, in the early stages of treatment while skin builds tolerance. If irritation occurs, stop or reduce the frequency of use until the skin adjusts. Once tolerance is developed, non-irritated skin can tolerate use up to twice a day.
- Apply sunscreen daily, wear protective clothing and limit sun exposure while using this product for a week after ceasing use.
Benefits
- Help mitigate the effects of daily aggressions such as pollution exposure.
- Improve the appearance of multiple signs of aging simultaneously.
- Assists the natural exfoliation process, resulting in a more even tone and complexion for visibly improved skin appearance.
