How do I start using a 0.5% retinol to help minimize irritation?

Start with a small amount 1–2 nights per week on clean, dry skin and increase frequency gradually as tolerated. Follow with moisturizer and reduce use if irritation occurs.

What is the sandwich method for retinol?

Apply moisturizer, then retinol, then another layer of moisturizer. This buffering method can help reduce dryness for some people when starting retinol.

The Story

Retinol is the gold standard anti-aging ingredient, renowned for its ability to enhance cell turnover, visibly reduce fine lines, and improve skin texture. Our Retinol Complex 0.5% takes these benefits to the next level by incorporating vitamins C and E into its formula. This combination not only amplifies the anti-aging effects of retinol, but also helps to soothe and nourish the skin, making it an excellent choice for those looking to maintain a youthful, vibrant complexion.

3 Ways to Help Skin Adjust to Retinol:

The Sandwich Method

- Applying a moisturizer before retinol helps keep dryness at bay, and moisturizing afterwards helps soothe and calm any irritation.

The Build-Up Method

- Start slow. The biggest mistake people make is applying retinol every night. Use a pea-sized amount once or twice a week. As your skin adjusts, you can begin using it more frequently.

The Rinse-Off Method

- If your skin is sensitive, you can always use the Rinse-Off Method. Apply retinol to moisturized skin and let it sit for 5 minutes. Then gently wash it off. Increase the amount of time to 10 minutes, then 15, then 30, until skin can handle overnight application.
