Pharma Développement A313 Vitamin A Retinol Cream - 50g

Initially, apply 2-3 times a week in the evening. As your skin builds tolerance, you can gradually increase the frequency, but avoid daily use until your skin is fully accustomed to the product.

No, A313 cream is designed for evening use only. Retinol can be degraded by sunlight and can also increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) during the day when using this product.

While generally suitable for all skin types, sensitive skin types should introduce the product very slowly, perhaps once a week initially. Always perform a patch test before full application to check for any adverse reactions.

Visible improvements in skin texture and tone may be noticed within 4-8 weeks, but more significant reductions in fine lines and wrinkles typically require consistent use over 12 weeks or more. Patience and consistency are crucial.

The main active ingredient is Vitamin A (Retinol), which is known for its powerful anti-aging properties, promoting cell turnover and improving skin texture and elasticity.

No, it is advised to avoid the delicate eye area when applying Pharma Développement A313 Retinol Cream. The skin around the eyes is very thin and sensitive, and retinol can cause irritation in this region.

A patch test involves applying a small amount of the product to an inconspicuous area of your skin (e.g., behind the ear or on your jawline) and waiting 24-48 hours to observe any reactions. It's important to identify potential allergies or sensitivities before applying the product to your entire face.

Info needed: Retinoids can increase skin's photosensitivity. It is strongly recommended to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher every morning when using this product, even on cloudy days.

This is a common initial reaction. Reduce application frequency to 1-2 times a week. Ensure your skin is completely dry before application. Consider applying a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer after the A313 cream has absorbed, or use the 'sandwich method' (moisturizer, A313, then another layer of moisturizer) on days you experience dryness. Do not stop completely unless irritation is severe or persists.

Retinol takes time to show significant results, typically 8-12 weeks for noticeable changes in texture and fine lines. Ensure consistent application as directed, and that you're using a small, pea-sized amount. Check that your skin is cleansed and dry before application. Patience and consistency are key with retinoids. Also, ensure you are protecting your skin with daily sunscreen.

Perform a patch test if you haven't already. Ensure you are avoiding sensitive areas like the eyes, lips, and corners of the nose. If your skin is compromised (e.g., sunburned, broken, or recently exfoliated), wait until it heals before applying. Reduce usage frequency. If stinging persists or is severe, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
