What makes it different

This serum combines retinol with bakuchiol—an ingredient often praised for retinol‑like benefits—to help enhance elasticity while supporting tolerability. The addition of hydrating components helps offset dryness typically associated with retinoids, making it easier to stay consistent for visible results.

Who it’s for

Suitable for all skin types—especially those starting a retinoid journey, dealing with early signs of aging, or seeking a gentle option that respects sensitive skin barriers.

How to use for best results

1. Evening only: apply after cleansing to dry skin, avoiding the eye area.
2. Start low and slow: use twice a week for the first two weeks.
3. Build gradually: increase to every other night in weeks 3–4, then once daily at night from week 5 if your skin is comfortable.
4. Lock in hydration: follow with your favorite moisturizer to maintain comfort.
5. Daytime must: wear broad‑spectrum sunscreen every morning when using retinoids.

Texture and finish

The lightweight, gel‑like consistency absorbs quickly without stickiness, making it easy to layer with the rest of your routine and comfortable even in humid climates.

Results you can look forward to

• Smoother‑feeling skin and a more refined look to pores and uneven texture over time.
• Improved bounce and elasticity for a more resilient complexion with continued use.
• Comfortable wear thanks to moisture‑supporting components that help counter dryness.

Smart pairing in your routine

At night, cleanse, apply this serum, then seal with a nourishing moisturizer. On retinol nights, keep the rest of your routine simple and avoid layering strong exfoliants. In the morning, cleanse, hydrate, and finish with SPF.
