FAQs
Is 101 Gentle Retinoid suitable for sensitive skin?
Absolutely! The 101 Gentle Retinoid is a retinoid cream specifically designed with sensitive skin in mind. Its formulation includes Retinyl Palmitate, a milder form of vitamin A, which ensures that you can enjoy the benefits of skin renewal and collagen production without the harshness often associated with stronger retinol products. This makes it an excellent choice for those looking to improve skin elasticity and reduce wrinkles while maintaining skin type integrity.
Can I use 101 Gentle Retinoid cream on my face daily?
For new users, it's recommended to apply retinoid cream to a clean face, neck, and under the eyes every other evening for the first two weeks. This gradual introduction to retinoid cream allows your skin to adapt to the active ingredients without becoming dry or irritated. If your skin type tolerates the product well, you may increase usage to every evening from week three onwards. Remember, for skin care products containing retinol or vitamin A derivatives, wearing sunscreen, like our Daily Habit SPF 30 daily is crucial to protect your skin from increased sensitivity to the sun.
Additionally, to maintain optimal skin health, consider how often you should moisturize your face and adjust your routine to ensure your skin remains hydrated and protected.
What is Retinyl Palmitate?
Retinyl palmitate, a 101 Gentle Retinoid active ingredient, is a form of vitamin A that is known to aid hyperpigmentation and sunspots. It’s also considered an effective acne treatment by unclogging pores and reducing inflammation. Overall, retinyl palmitate is an important ingredient in skincare because of its ability to improve the appearance and health of the skin. Pro tip: Incorporating a serum and moisturizer into your routine can enhance these benefits.
