Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using the kit, ensure your skin is clean and dry before application. If you have sensitive skin, it is recommended to follow a 'phase-in' schedule: use the Crystal Retinal 3 twice a week for the first two weeks, then every other night for the next two weeks, before moving to nightly use. Always store these products in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the retinal formula. This kit is compatible with most non-acid based cleansers, but avoid using other highly active treatments like chemical exfoliants or high-strength AHAs/BHAs at the same time to prevent barrier compromise.
