How To Use:
-
Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin at night.
-
Start by using twice per week and gradually increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance.
-
Follow with your preferred moisturizer. For an extra boost of moisture, add one to two drops of Squalane + Vitamin C Rose Oil (sold separately).
-
Apply sunscreen the following morning, as retinoids can increase sun sensitivity.
Why should I only use this at night?
Biossance recommends this serum in evening use because retinol and retinal can cause sensitivity to the sun. It is also important to wear a daily sunscreen every morning and reapply during the day.
