101 Gentle Retinoid

Most definitely! 101 Gentle Retinoid cream is specifically designed with sensitive skin in mind. Made with Retinyl Palmitate, a milder form of vitamin A, it 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.

For new users, it's recommended to apply a retinoid cream to a clean face and neck and under the eyes every other evening for the first two weeks. This gradual introduction allows your skin to adapt to its 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, daily use of sunscreen like our  DAILY HABIT SPF 30 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 that your skin remains hydrated and protected.

Retinyl palmitate, an active ingredient in 101 Gentle Retinoid, is a form of vitamin A that is known to aid hyperpigmentation and sunspots. Because it can unclog pores and reduce inflammation, it’s also an effective acne treatment. Thanks to its ability to improve the appearance and health of the skin retinyl palmitate is an important ingredient in skincare. 

Pro tip: Incorporating a serum and moisturizer into your routine can enhance these benefits.
