Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply Retinol 0.5?
Start with clean, dry skin. Apply a pea-sized amount to your face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Use it 2-3 times a week initially, and gradually increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance. Always follow up with a moisturizer.
Can I use Retinol 0.5 every day?
It’s best to start slowly (2-3 times a week) to allow your skin to adjust. Once your skin is accustomed, you can increase usage to every other day or as recommended by your dermatologist.
Is Retinol 0.5 suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes! Our formula is gentle and designed for all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, if you have extremely sensitive skin, do a patch test before regular use.
Can I use Retinol 0.5 with other skincare products?
Yes, but avoid using it with other exfoliating products (like AHAs/BHAs) to prevent irritation. Always follow up with a moisturizer and use sunscreen during the day.
How soon will I see results?
Most customers notice visible improvements in 2-4 weeks with regular use. For best results, use consistently for 8-12 weeks.
Can I use Retinol 0.5 during the day?
Retinol is best used at night as it can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight. Always use SPF 30 or higher during the day to protect your skin.
What if I experience irritation?
If you experience redness or dryness, reduce usage to once a week and ensure you’re using a good moisturizer. If irritation persists, consult a dermatologist.
