Use at night. On clean, dry skin, apply a small amount to the neck and face, avoiding the eye contour area. Allow it to absorb and follow with a moisturizer.
If you have never used retinoids, start by applying gradually. Begin with 2-3 days a week and progressively increase frequency depending on your skin's tolerance. Apply sunscreen the following morning.
In general, it is recommended to start with low doses of Retinal, alternating days, and gradually increase the dose according to skin tolerance, as it can cause slight flaking.
If you have never used Retinal, start with the 0.1% concentration; for regular users, the 0.2% concentration can be used, also starting on alternate days to check skin tolerance.
0.1%: recommended for sensitive, dry skin, or those who have never used retinoids. It is a milder option, ideal for getting started without the risk of irritation.
0.2%: designed for more experienced users or skin accustomed to retinoids. It has a more intensive action on wrinkles, uneven texture, and visible signs of aging.
Both versions contain encapsulated sustained-release retinal, which maintains efficacy while reducing the risk of skin reactions.
We do not recommend combining it in the same application with vitamin C or exfoliating acids, as they can irritate the skin.
Although its absorption is low and there are no conclusive studies on its risk, as a precaution, the use of retinoid derivatives or vitamin A is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Avoid applying in contact with white garments, as its yellow color may transfer to these fabrics. We recommend applying it a while before going to bed or covering the pillow with another cloth.
Vitamin A is absorbed by our body and, for it to perform its function in our skin, it must go through the following reactions (known as retinoids) until it becomes retinoic acid:
Retinol esters -> Retinol -> Retinaldehyde (Retinal) -> Retinoic acid.
Retinal is closer to the final product of the reaction, which makes it a more powerful and faster molecule than retinol, in addition to being less irritating.
Our Retinal is encapsulated in a reservoir matrix with a sustained-release system that maintains its efficacy and reduces irritation.
Pure retinal is yellow, and due to its concentration, it makes the formula acquire this color.
