Skincare routines with:
SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5
AM - Everyday
Use every day, as many times as needed. For most people, it's best to use a moisturizer twice per day. In the morning, apply it before your sunscreen (or skip the moisturizer in the morning if your sunscreen feels hydrating enough). In the evening, a moisturizer is usually the last step of a routine.
PM - Everyday
Use a generous amount of product to remove all dirt, sunscreen or makeup in one step. There is no need to double-cleanse. It is a good idea to always finish cleansing with a splash of clean water to remove any residue from the cleanser. Most people only need to cleanse their skin with a cleanser once per day, at night. It is the first step of a night skincare routine.

The absolute perfect regimen for getting started with active ingredient skincare. Vitamin C, SPF, and Retinol are non-negotiables for making a true improvement in your skin and protecting lifelong vitality. Regardless of anticipated sun exposure, SPF is worn daily to protect from photo-damage. Layering SPF lotion with Jane powder to set and lock it in place means of course removing it completely each night, I use wipes to trap and discard the bulk of the minerals before then using a cleanser and toner to chemically purify the skin and re-establish proper pH. Keep your skin barrier happy and moisturized. Cycle active ingredients salicylic acid and retinol every other night, you will likely get dry and breakouts when you first start know that this is normal and will improve as your skin purges the old and acclimates by growing fresh healthy new skin faster (if you are raw and flakey omit this step until skin is repaired). Weekly clay as a way to extract and refine the pores. Be sure to see your Skin Nurse and Aesthetician regularly!

Start slowly with this product: it can be irritating, but your skin can adjust to it with time. It is best to start using this product only a few times a week or every other day for the first few weeks. Mild dryness is normal when starting using a retinoid. Once your skin is able to tolerate the product well, you can slowly increase the frequency of use to every day. Make sure to apply a moisturizer regularly when using this product. Apply this product on clean skin, before a moisturizer. Most people prefer using this product at night, but it can be used in the morning as well (once per day in total).
