Below you will find a few rules that you must implement if you are starting your beautiful adventure with retinol.
1. Only apply retinol to thoroughly cleansed and dry skin.
2. After applying, wait for at least five to twenty minutes, then apply your regular moisturizer to the skin.
3. Only use retinol at night. Never for a day!
4. Every morning at the end of your skincare routine, apply sunscreen, minimum SPF 30. Retinol has photosensitizing properties, and prevention is better than cure.
5. Retinol is not recommended if you are expecting a baby.
6. It cannot be combined with AHA, BHA, and vitamin C.
7. Don’t put too much of it. Sometimes less is more. A droplet is enough to cover the entire face.
