FAQs

How often should I use the serum?

Start with 1-2 times a week and increase as tolerated. Always monitor your skin's response.

Can I use this serum if I have sensitive skin?

It is recommended to patch test. Start with a very small amount and use it less frequently to see how your skin reacts. Be sure to use gentle and hydrating products.

Is it safe to use during pregnancy?

Consult with a doctor or dermatologist before using any new skincare products during pregnancy.

What should I do if I experience excessive dryness?

Reduce the frequency of use, and always follow with a hydrating moisturizer.

When is the best time to apply the serum?

It's best to apply it in the evening, after cleansing, to allow it to work overnight and avoid sun exposure.

Can I use this serum with other exfoliants?

It's generally not recommended to use this with other strong exfoliants at the same time, as it could lead to over-exfoliation. It is recommended to use one at a time.

How long will it take to see results?

Results can vary, but many users see improvements in skin clarity and texture within a few weeks of consistent use. Clinical studies showed improvement within 6 weeks.

What is the shelf life of this serum?

Check the product packaging for the expiration date after opening. Typically, it should be used within 12 months after opening.

Troubleshooting

Skin irritation or redness after application.

Reduce the frequency of use or discontinue if irritation persists. Perform a patch test before starting or reintroducing the product. Try applying a moisturizer after the serum.

Initial breakouts or purging.

This is a common reaction as the serum clears out pores. Continue use, and the breakouts should subside within a few weeks. If purging is severe, decrease usage to every other day.

Product not absorbing well.

Ensure you are applying a thin layer. Give the serum time to absorb before applying other products. Try using a toner before applying the serum.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This serum is compatible with most skincare routines, but it's essential to introduce it gradually.

Directions:

  1. Patch Test: Apply a small amount to a discreet area of skin (like behind your ear) and wait 24-48 hours to check for any adverse reactions.
  2. Application: After cleansing and toning (optional), apply a thin layer to the face, avoiding the eye area.
  3. Frequency: Start with once or twice a week and increase gradually as tolerated.
  4. Layering: Allow the serum to absorb before applying moisturizers.
  5. Sunscreen: Always use sunscreen during the day, as AHAs can increase sun sensitivity.

Compatibility:

  • Works well with hydrating serums and moisturizers.
  • May not be compatible with other strong exfoliants if used simultaneously.

Care:

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Close the bottle tightly after each use.
