Who is this serum recommended for?

What are the key active ingredients?
Key ingredients include A complex of fast-acting Granactive Retinoid®, Retinol, time-released encapsulated Retinol, and a Retinol Booster support a continual release of skin-smoothing actives working at different speeds to address the four signs of skin aging. Concentrated Squalane works with soothing, oat-derived Beta-Glucan to help support recovery for healthier-looking skin.
How do I use a retinol serum?
Apply a small amount of serum evenly across cleansed skin at night, avoiding the eye area. Follow with a moisturizer to maintain hydration. Start every other night if you are new to retinol, gradually increasing to nightly use. If dryness or redness occurs, reduce frequency. Wear an SPF during the day. Consistent application is key to improving texture, tone, and fine lines.
Can I use this retinol serum every night?
Yes. Dynamic Skin Retinol Serum is designed to be gentle enough for nightly use. If you’re new to retinol, start every other night and gradually increase as skin adjusts.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Many users report this serum is gentle; introduce gradually and patch test if you have known sensitivity or reactive skin. Pairing with hydrating products or a moisturizer can help maintain comfort and reduce irritation.
What is the texture like?
Lightweight, gel-like serum texture that absorbs quickly and feels non-greasy.
How much should I use?
A little goes a long way-one pump or a pea-sized amount is typically sufficient to cover the face.
Can I layer retinol with other products?
Retinol works well with hydrating serums and moisturizers. Avoid layering multiple strong active ingredients at the same time to minimize irritation.
Can retinol be applied around the eyes?
Avoid the delicate eye area unless the product specifically indicates it is safe. Use an eye-specific product like Age Reversal Eye Complex in combination for optimal results.
What’s the difference between retinol and retinoid?
Retinol is a type of retinoid. A retinoid is a vitamin A derivative with many subtypes, including retinol. Retinoids like Retinoic Acid are stronger and often prescription-only, while retinol is gentler and available over-the-counter in products like serums.
