Our 0.2% Retinol Complex consists of pure or active retinol & encapsulated retinol. Active Retinol works at the surface level to promote cell turnover, thus reducing the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles for a smoother, more renewed skin texture. Encapsulated retinol, on the other hand, is a gentler (yet potent) version of retinol that penetrates deeper layers of the skin surface to slowly & steadily release active into the skin, thus slowing down the process of skin ageing.
Can I use this serum during the daytime?
We highly recommend avoiding using the serum during the daytime as it may cause sun sensitivity (upon exposure to the sun) resulting in redness, skin irritation & inflammation. Instead, use it for your PM skincare routine, starting with 1-3 times per week.
How do I use retinol & vitamin C serum together?
You cannot combine retinol and vitamin C in the same routine. We recommend using vitamin C during the day and retinol at night.
I have acne-prone skin with visible redness. Will this serum suit my skin?
While our retinol serum is gentle & beginner-friendly, we highly recommend avoiding using it for your skin type. Instead, you can try our newly launched Blueberry Hydrate 12% Barrier Boost Serum to help reduce acne, redness & skin irritation, resulting in healthy, bright & glossy skin.
