Transcript

I'm a derm PA and the biggest myth about retinol is that it has to draw you out and make you peel. When used right, retinoids are actually really well tolerated. But when used wrong, you get dry, flaky skin and that is not proof it's working. The irritation usually comes from jumping in too fast and not supporting your barrier. That is why I also look for retinoids that protect the barrier like SKIN1004 Retinol 0.2 Boosting Shot Ampoule. It has squalane, centella and panthenol that all work to keep your barrier calm while the retinol works, which means you get the smoothing and firming benefits without the flaking. This formula is also unique because it uses tiny spicules designed to create micro channels in your skin to help the retinol absorb deeper. Use it at night, two to three times a week to start and always layer on moisturizer on top. From there, you can build up usage as tolerated. Give it a solid 8 to 12 weeks to start seeing improvement in your skin. So if you finally want to use retinol the right way, this is a great place to start. You can get it on YesStyle with code SIGHLUR1004 for 12% off. And that is where I get all of my authentic Korean skincare from. Use my code SIGHLUR1004 for 12% off.
