“Retinol and peels both resurface, so we space them out rather than stacking them. Use the Active Peel System on the nights you skip your retinol and your texture keeps improving comfortably.”

“Retinol+ smooths and brightens while Intense Serum supports repair underneath it. Running both means your skin gets the resurfacing benefit with exosome support working alongside it the whole way.”

Glycerin draws water into the outer layer of your skin and helps your barrier recover. Here is how it differs from the oils in your moisturizer, and what it does in very dry air.
Retinol+ Emulsion 0.3 stands out because of its advanced delivery system. The retinol is encapsulated in bioidentical lipids, which allows it to penetrate deeply and release slowly. This minimizes irritation while maximizing results. It also includes anti-inflammatory ingredients and IS Clinical’s Extremozyme® technology, which protects against environmental aggressors.
Yes, this 0.3% strength is an excellent entry point for those new to retinol or with sensitive skin. Its encapsulated delivery ensures that it works gradually, reducing the risk of redness and peeling. That said, it's still potent, start with 2–3 nights per week and increase as tolerated.
It depends on your routine. Retinol should not be layered with strong exfoliants (like AHAs or benzoyl peroxide) unless directed by a professional. However, it works well with hydrating and barrier-repair products, antioxidants, and gentle cleansers. Always follow with SPF in the morning, as retinol increases sun sensitivity.
Most users begin to see smoother texture and more even tone within 4–6 weeks. Fine lines, pigmentation, and breakouts may take 8–12 weeks to show noticeable improvement. With consistent use, skin becomes brighter, firmer, and more resilient over time.
Start slow, 2 to 3 nights per week is ideal for most. Once your skin adjusts, you can increase frequency to nightly use if tolerated. Listen to your skin; if you experience redness or dryness, reduce usage and buffer with a gentle moisturizer.
