Anticipated Reactions
Redness, flakiness, dryness, burning, or stinging are all normal, anticipated reactions when starting retinol. With regular product use, skin will acclimate, revealing a smoother, more even-toned and youthful-looking complexion. Pair your retinol with a ZO® functional hydrator to minimize anticipated reactions. Consult a physician for customized retinol protocol. Like prescription retinoic acid, retinol will make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Wear SPF 30 or higher daily.
How do I use Retinol Skin Brightener 0.25%?
Start by using 2-3 times per week in the evening on clean, dry skin. Gradually increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance. Always follow with moisturiser and use SPF during the day.
What does retinol do and is it right for me?
Retinol (vitamin A) accelerates cell turnover, stimulates collagen production, and helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. It is suitable for most adults looking to address signs of ageing or acne, but should be introduced gradually. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before use.
Can I use this with other active ingredients?
Retinol can be sensitising, so avoid layering it with AHAs, BHAs, or vitamin C in the same routine. Use retinol in the evening and vitamin C in the morning. Hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, and ceramides pair well with retinol and help buffer any irritation.
How long does it take to see brightening results?
Most brightening ingredients need consistent use to show visible results. Vitamin C and niacinamide may show improvement in 4-6 weeks. For stubborn hyperpigmentation, treatments with glycolic acid, azelaic acid, or retinol may take 8-12 weeks of regular use.
