FAQs

How often should I use the A+ High-Dose Retinoid Serum?

For new users, start with two days on, two days off, and gradually increase. Advanced users can use it daily in the evening.

What should I do if my skin becomes irritated?

Reduce the frequency of application, and apply a hydrating oil before applying the serum. Ensure you're using a hydrating moisturizer afterwards.

Can I use this serum with other products?

Yes, but introduce new products gradually. Avoid using multiple strong actives at the same time, especially at the start.

Do I need to use sunscreen?

Yes, always use sunscreen during the day, as retinoids increase sun sensitivity.

What kind of moisturizer should I use after applying the serum?

Use a hydrating moisturizer or a facial oil, such as C.E.O. Glow or Juno, to support skin hydration.

Can I use this serum if I have sensitive skin?

Yes, start with a lower frequency of application and apply a hydrating oil beforehand. Monitor your skin's reaction carefully.

How long does it take to see results?

Results vary, but you may start seeing improvements in skin texture and fine lines within a few weeks with consistent use.

How should I store the serum?

Store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat to maintain its effectiveness.
