Product Description

Your go-to ingredient for skin renewal.




Derived from Vitamin A, Retinol is the gold standard for skin renewal, helping to target the signs of ageing. Released slowly, this serum helps target the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with less risk of irritation. It also boosts overall skin clarity and uneven skin tone for a brighter, more even complexion.




KEY INGREDIENTS:




• 1% RetiStar stabilised Retinol


• 0.5% Granactive Retinoid


• Squalane for hydration and soothing

Directions

Use in the PM after cleansing and toning and before other serums. Apply a pea sized amount to the fingers and gently tap into the skin.

Start every other or every third evening and build up to using every night. Use consistently for maximum results.

Works well with: Niacinamide, Rosehip Oil.
Avoid mixing with: Vitamin C, Alpha Hydroxy Acid, Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid.

Warnings: Avoid the immediate eye area. May increase sun sensitivity, always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day.

Whilst THE INKEY LIST Retinol has a low irritation formula, for some people redness and flakiness may occur at the beginning of use due to the increase in cell turnover. When first introducing Retinol, you may wish to use a few times per week and gradually increase to every evening.
External use only.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing results beginner friendly I have used a lot of Retinols but this one feels different. I follow a dermatologist and she swears by it decided to try and couldn't agree more. The product's colour, smell, texture itself shows it has great ingredients also the price is too good for the product quality

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it Loving this so far. Using for maybe just over 2 weeks now. My skin broke out slightly at the beginning, nothing major just some small white heads but now they’ve slowed down majorly and can see a huge difference in my skin, much smoother.

Hi, I have acne prone skin. I am left with dark scarring, does this product help reduce scars? Thanks

Asked by: Saalehah
It will do, but it would take a long time as this is a very low percentage of Retinol.

Is this product suitable for vegetarians?

Asked by: Anonymous
Hi there, Here's a statement from The Inkey List in regards to their products: &quot;We do not test on animals and there are no animal derivatives in the product ingredients and is therefore suitable for vegetarians. However we are very transparent that although there are no animal derivatives, we are not yet currently certified vegan. In order to state that we are Vegan not only do we have to ensure there are no animal derived ingredients in our final product, but also in the testing and manufacturing processes for the final product and it's ingredients. As soon as any of our products are certified vegan we'll share this information.&quot; Hope this helps! Many thanks Katie, Beauty Expert.
