PRODUCT DETAILS

Meet a night cream with two sides to its story. A retinal cream and a soothing barrier cream share one dual-chamber tube, dispensing as a blue-and-yellow combination. The adjustable pairing offers a gradual approach to retinal care for beginners and experienced users alike.

Formula 1 brings together 0.05% retinal and 3% Matrixyl® 3000. It focuses on smoother, firmer-looking skin, helping improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven texture while targeting the visible look of enlarged pores and reduced firmness.

Formula 2 centers on 5% panthenol, with niacinamide and guaiazulene. This soothing side helps replenish moisture and support the skin barrier, keeping skin feeling comfortable during retinal use. Niacinamide also supports a brighter, more even-looking tone.

Together, the two formulas make retinal care feel more adaptable without losing sight of the results you are looking for. The fragrance-free cream is designed for nighttime use, with the balance between its two sides placed gently in your hands.

Concerns & Benefits

Your Concerns

1
Fine Lines Wrinkles
When fine lines make skin look less smooth, the retinal formula helps soften their visible appearance.
2
Loss Of Firmness
For skin that looks less firm than you would like, the retinal-and-peptide side supports a firmer-looking finish.

How To Use

1Before your first use, patch test the cream on a discreet area and observe it for 24 hours before adding the product to your routine.
2For the first two weeks, use a small amount every other evening on the areas you want to target.
3After cleansing and toning at night, dispense your desired ratio of Step 1 retinal cream and Step 2 soothing cream onto your fingertips, then mix them together.
4Apply the mixture evenly over your face, avoiding the eye and lip areas. Leave it on as the final step of your nighttime routine.
5Once your skin has adjusted, you may use the cream nightly from week three, spreading an appropriate amount evenly over your face.
