Ingredient callouts

  • this product contains an effective form of Retinoids (vitamin A): hydroxypinacolone retinoate 0.65% (declared). Retinoids are potent multitasking actives. They work to improve and prevent early signs of aging, reduce hyperpigmentation (age spots and post-acne marks), and prevent inflamed blemishes and clogged pores. The downside of Retinoids is that they can be irritating. If you are not already using a Retinoid in your routine, it is best to start slowly and apply the Retinoid product only a few times per week. If your skin tolerates it well, you can gradually increase the frequency to daily.
  • Humectants (sodium hyaluronate 0.55% - 0.85%, aspartic acid 0.40% - 0.65%, arginine 0.40% - 0.65%, histidine 0.45% - 0.70%, glycine 0.25% - 0.45%, glutamic acid 0.30% - 0.60% and alanine 0.25% - 0.45%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.
