DIRECTIONS
HOW TO USE IT
Apply 3 to 4 drops to clean, dry skin. Gently massage the product into face and neck in circular motions. Then, follow up with your usual moisturiser.
As retinol is sensitive to light and sun (hence the amber glass bottle), we recommend you apply it in the evening.
If the first application leaves skin irritated, leave a few days between applications before building up to regular use (e.g apply it every 3 days, then every 2 days, then daily).IS THIS SERUM SUITABLE FOR YOUR SKIN TYPE?
This retinol serum is formulated for mature skin types.
We don't recommend use on sensitive or reactive skin.PRECAUTIONS
As a precaution, we advise against the use of retinoids during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

FIRMING ++
Collagen and elastin fibres form a three-dimensional network in the skin, ensuring the skin's suppleness and plumpness. Over the years, the production of collagen and elastin decreases, resulting in visible wrinkles and skin that scars more easily.
This serum is composed of 0.3% retinol to treat all different levels of skin ageing. Each application works to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin fibres to reduce the signs of ageing.
THE ACTIVES
Rétinol (0.3%):
One of the most effective compounds to treat the signs of ageing, Retinol (or vitamin A) is a part of the family of retinoids, typically derived from beta-carotene.
Thanks to its high level of antioxidants, retinol can fight free radicals – which cause the skin to age prematurely. Free radicals accumulate on the skin's barrier due to factors like UV exposure and pollution.
Highly anti-inflammatory, retinol is able to treat the inflammatory aspect of skin ageing. It regulates the production of melanin too, a skin pigment that causes brown spots and hyperpigmentation.
Retinol can also boost the production of hyaluronic acid – essential for hydration. Plus prevent the depletion of the skin’s collagen and elastin stores: ensuring skin stays supple, plump, and firm.Soy Oil:
Ideal for mature skin, soy oil is known to activate cell renewal. Our soy oil is extracted from fresh soybeans and is guaranteed GMO-free.
Castor Oil:
Non-irritating and non-comedogenic, our castor oil comes from cold-pressed Ricinus communis seeds, which have been used in cosmetics for over 4000 years. Particularly beneficial for mature skin, castor oil is even rumoured to have been used as a make-up remover by Cleopatra.

Good Retinol Serum if you know how to use it
Feels nice but too early to tell. As always, Retinol makes my skin super dry, so not sure how often to use it. At the moment still trying it out.Was this review helpful? - Beth K.Verified buyerUnited Kingdom, December 9, 2020
Impressed so far
