UNPOPULAR OPINION ABOUT RETINOL

Written By ARDENT

RETINOL CAN BE USED ON ALL SKIN TYPES, EVEN THE MOST REACTIVE. IT’S JUST ABOUT HEALING YOUR SKIN BARRIER + FINDING THE RETINOL FORMULATION THAT WORKS FOR YOU.

 
 

do you feel like your skin is too “sensitive” or inflamed for retinol? well, luckily for you there are gentle retinol options!

our process:


➕we always work to heal the skin barrier prior to beginning retinol, so it can work its magic without irritating
➕utilizing products that promote hydration, strengthen the skin + feed the skin vital nutrients will create a healthy foundation for retinol use

the products:


➕alpharet overnight cream - perfect intro to retinol! this product is gentle + will never irritate the skin, can be used nightly
➕alpharet clearing serum - containing salicylic acid, this product is great for treating oily + acne-prone skin conditions
➕alpharet intensive overnight cream - for mature, or thicker skin types, this product contains a higher percentage of AHAs for added exfoliation

ALL alpharet products contain lactic + glycolic acid which create a time-release effect when the retinoid hits your skin. this effect is what prevents any irritation + flaking.
