I don’t have sensitive skin, but my skin is reacting. Why?
You often go through something called “the purge” when first starting or increasing your retinol dosage.
The purge generally causes redness, flakiness or even breakouts.
Stick with it!
It can take a few weeks, but the end results are worth it!
It’s been a few weeks and my skin is still angry…
There could be various reasons: using too often, too much, using in the AM (a big no-no!), or mixing with other active ingredients like exfoliators or other acids like AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid).
This is a case of too much of a good thing, which can be…too much!
Help me fix it!
A reaction is usually due to dryness or irritation and isn’t difficult to fix.
Simply pull back on retinol application (and other products with active ingredients, except SPF).
Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer designed to help with skin’s repair.

Key Ingredient
Retinol – The gold-standard ingredient for improving the look of fine lines, wrinkles, and other signs of aging.
Benefits Of Retinol
It does it all and is one of the top superhero ingredients in anti-aging skin care products.
Retinol works to accelerate skin turnover, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
Visibly refreshes skin’s texture for a smoother, brighter look.
To Use
We recommend the “low and slow” approach. Start with a pea-sized amount on one night, then wait a few days to check your tolerance. If you don’t experience a reaction like redness, irritation, or dry skin, use it again. If you do, try mixing the retinol with your moisturizer.
Use retinol 1-2x per week at first. Gradually work up to 3x per week or every other day.
Only recommended for PM use, as retinol makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight.
