Usage and Dosage

In the evening, after cleansing, apply two pump doses to the face and neck. Allow the serum to absorb, then apply a moisturiser.

When introducing the serum into your routine, apply it twice a week for the first two weeks, every other day for the following two weeks, and then every evening. Perform a patch test at least 24 hours before first use. Do not apply the serum directly to the sensitive eye area. Use a sun protection product in the morning.

Gradually increasing the frequency allows you to incorporate 0.1% retinaldehyde into your evening routine following a clearly defined schedule.

Packaging and Volume

• Volume: 30 ml
• Airless packaging helps protect the retinal from degradation
