How to Use
At the end of your morning and evening skincare routine, take a small pearl-sized amount onto a fingertip and gently blend into areas where wrinkles are a concern, such as around the eyes and mouth. When using in the morning, follow with a cosmetic product offering UV protection to protect the retinol's effects.
To open: Remove the cap and discard the blue ring. Place the cap straight onto the tube and screw it down until the ridged section at the base is no longer visible. Remove the cap; the inner stopper will now be in place.
Avoid contact with eyes. After use, wipe the tube opening clean and close the cap securely. Store away from direct sunlight, high temperatures, and humidity.
Do not use if you have previously experienced irritation from products containing retinol or if your skin is prone to irritation. For first-time use or when skin is sensitive, begin by applying only at night every two to three days for the first two weeks, then every night for the following two weeks, gradually increasing frequency. When using other retinol products, avoid introducing multiple products at once; introduce one at a time while monitoring your skin. Follow the recommended amount and frequency.
When using on the neck for the first time, follow the same precautions as for the face. Do not use on the neck if irritation has occurred on the face. If irritation occurs, stop use on the affected area.
