The Science Behind
Retinol 1.0

Combat Decreased Cell Turnover

As skin ages, the rate of cell turnover slows and accelerates visible signs of aging like fine lines or wrinkles. This naturally occurring process sheds dead skin cells and replaces them with new cells, keeping skin looking soft, supple, and radiant. To stimulate cell turnover and prevent visible signs of aging, incorporate Retinol 1.0 into your routine.

Advanced Strength Retinol

After conditioning skin to low and moderate strength retinol, improve the appearance of skin with Retinol 1.0. As the highest strength treatment available, Retinol 1.0 can effectively address discoloration or deep wrinkles more quickly than lower strength retinols.

The Sandwiching Method

To prevent irritation and reduce the retinol acclimation period, incorporate ceramide-rich creams like Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 into your routine when using retinol. The Sandwiching Method is a powerful method to trap moisture while ensuring your products reach their max efficacy. To reduce irritation while promoting cell turnover, follow these three steps:

Step 1: Cleanse skin + apply a hydrating serum
Step 2: Apply a small amount of Retinol 1.0
Step 3: Finish with Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2

How to Use Retinol 1.0

1

Prep + Dispense

In the evening, apply a pea size amount to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Allow product to absorb before applying other skincare products. Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, then every night as tolerated. It is recommended for new users to start with Retinol 0.3 to establish skin tolerance.

2

Apply + Complete

Retinol may increase photosensitivity. Always use a high-protection, broad spectrum sunscreen when using retinol cream.

As a precaution, retinol face creams should not be used by pregnant women or women who intend to become pregnant in the near future. Though there are no reports of topical retinol having any negative effect on fetal development, always consult a physician.
