Derived from Vitamin A, Retinol is the gold standard for skin renewal, helping to target the signs of ageing. Released slowly, this serum helps target the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with less risk of irritation. It also boosts overall skin clarity and uneven skin tone for a brighter, more even complexion.

KEY INGREDIENTS:

• 1% RetiStar stabilised Retinol

• 0.5% Granactive Retinoid

• Squalane for hydration and soothing

HOW TO USE:

Only use Retinol in the PM. On cleansed skin, and after Hyaluronic Acid if you are using it, apply a pea-sized amount and massage into to the face and neck. Follow with moisturizer, oil or both depending on preference. Start off using it 2-3 times per week and increase gradually if your skin can tolerate more frequent use

There are irritation risks with Retinol. This is why we made our formula slow release to reduce the risk of irritation and make it suitable for most skin types. However, if you have very sensitive skin, or are pregnant or breast feeding, we suggest you try our Bakuchiol moisturizer. A natural alternative to Retinol. It also helps target signs of ageing and is suitable for all.

WHY CAN’T I USE RETINOL IN THE MORNING?

As Retinol speeds up skin renewal, newer skin reaches the surface quicker. This can increase the skin’s sensitivity to the sun. That’s why we recommended only using Retinol in the PM and always using a broad spectrum sunscreen during the day.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?

Retinol can take up to six weeks to show results. This is due to the time it takes for your skin cells to be replaced. Consistency is key, so apply regularly even if you’re not seeing the effects straight away. It can be very tempting to increase use of some products to try and see quicker results, don’t overdo it though. More is not always better change for future. Overuse can cause irritation and sensitivity.
