Product details
Q: Is this suitable for all skin types? A: Yes — suitable for all skin types. If you have sensitive skin or are new to retinoids, start 2–3 nights per week and gradually increase frequency as your skin adjusts. Those with dry skin should always follow with a rich moisturizer, especially during colder months. Q: Do I need to shake before use? A: Yes — gently shake the bottle before each use. The formula contains encapsulated dual retinoid capsules (Retinol 0.1% + Retinal 0.1%) that settle over time. Shaking ensures both actives are evenly distributed so you receive the full benefit with every drop. Q: How often should I use it? A: PM (night) use only. Beginners: 2–3 nights per week for the first 3–4 weeks. Experienced retinol users: nightly use is fine. If dryness or tightness occurs, reduce to every other night and ensure adequate moisturization. Q: Can I use it with other actives (AHA, BHA, Vitamin C)? A: Avoid combining with strong actives on the same night — this can cause irritation. Hydrating ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid are compatible. Use alternate nights if you have other active treatments. This serum works best as a standalone PM treatment. Q: What results can I expect, and how soon? A: 4–6 weeks: improved skin texture, refined pores, refreshed appearance. 3+ months: visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, firmer and bouncier skin, improved elasticity. Results build gradually with consistency. Daily SPF 30+ is essential. Q: Will this cause irritation or peeling? A: Mild dryness or sensitivity in the first 1–2 weeks is normal as your skin adjusts. To minimize irritation: apply to fully dry skin, use only 3–4 drops, follow immediately with moisturizer, and reduce frequency if redness persists. Avoid eye and lip areas. Q: What makes this different from other retinol serums? A: Most retinol serums use only one retinoid form. This serum combines Retinol 0.1% + Retinal 0.1% — a rare Dual Retinoid system. Retinal works up to 11x faster than retinol. NAD+ is added to support cellular energy and repair. Q: Is this a day or night product? A: Night-only (PM) product. Apply SPF 30+ every morning without fail when using any retinoid. Never apply before sun exposure. Q: Is it safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding? A: We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before using any retinoid product during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
