Product notes

Benefits

  • Retinol-based brightener supports smoother texture and more even-looking tone.
  • Lower-strength retinol format can be a starting point for guided brightening routines.
  • Includes calming support for a more comfortable retinol experience.

Key ingredients

  • Retinol (0.25%) — encapsulated for gradual release; supports brighter, smoother-looking skin
  • Bakuchiol — plant-derived skin conditioner that helps soothe and calm
  • Ascorbyl Glucoside — gentle vitamin C derivative; helps brighten the look of skin
  • Glutathione — antioxidant that supports a more even-looking tone
  • Sweet Almond Oil — lightweight emollient that helps soften and smooth skin

How to use

  1. If you have not been using retinol, begin use gradually.
  2. Following cleansing, apply to clean, dry skin twice a week.
  3. Increase frequency to alternate days, then to every day as tolerated.
  4. Retinol makes skin more sensitive to the sun; wear SPF 30 or higher daily.

How it fits

  • Start slowly and follow a customized protocol if you are new to retinol.
  • Pair with a functional hydrator and daily SPF to support comfort.

Notes before use

  • Redness, dryness, flaking, burning, or stinging can occur when starting retinol.
  • Consult a provider before use, especially during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or with sensitive skin.
