What should I do if my skin becomes irritated?

Reduce the frequency of use, mix the retinol with a moisturizer, or discontinue use if irritation persists.

Is this product suitable for sensitive skin?

Troubleshooting

Skin irritation, redness, or peeling

Reduce frequency of use or mix the retinol with a moisturizer to buffer the effects. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.

Ensure consistent use and apply the product correctly. Results may take several weeks or months to become apparent. Consider consulting a dermatologist for further assessment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Preparation: Begin with clean, dry skin. Avoid using abrasive cleansers before application.
  2. Application: Apply a pea-sized amount to the face, avoiding the eye and mouth areas.
  3. Layering: Allow the retinol to absorb completely before applying any other products. If needed, follow with a moisturizer.
  4. Sunscreen: Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day, as retinol increases sun sensitivity.
