The ultimate question: 0.6 or 1%?
- Retinol 0.6% + B3 Anti-Ageing Night Serum is ideal for those who are already using Skin Protein and are seeking greater results. Or, those who are new to retinol as an ingredient.
- Retinol 1% + B3 Anti-Ageing Night Serum is perfect for those who are already accustomed to retinol and wish to try our safe, clinically-proven + results-driven version. Or, have already finished minimum x1 bottle of our Retinol 0.6% + B3 serum and wish to up the ante to nearly double the strength of retinol!
Always wear SPF when using retinol.
Be cautious when using Retinol with exfoliating acids such as those within AHA Cleanse and Sally Cleanse. Whilst your skin is new to Retinol, we suggest using Retinol and exfoliating acids on alternative nights.
How to use?:
- Introduce gradually to the skin.
- Begin by using 2x weekly, then 3x weekly before building up to 5-7x weekly. Only progress to an additional evening each week if the skin is showing no signs of sensitivity or irritation (i.e. areas of dryness or new spots).
- Use in the evening only, cleanse as usual and proceed with Skin Veg. Mix your Retinol + B3 with Skin Protein and apply from the nipples up!
- When introducing this product, do not use Sally Cleanse or AHA Cleanse on the same day/night.
- If skin is feeling dry, try buffering your application with Skin Good Fats. To do this, you should apply your skincare in the following order: PreProbiotic Cleanse, Skin Veg, Skin Protein, Skin Good Fats and then Retinol.
- Levelling up: After using one bottle of 0.6%, progress to 1%. You must also do this gradually, starting with 2x weekly use - remember, it is nearly double the strength of the 0.6% formula you have just used!
- For experiencedusers only: Apply Retinol neat (straight after PreProbiotic Cleanse has been removed). If you have been using retinol from another brand, we recommend that you begin with 2x weekly use, before building up to 5-7 x a week.
