Massage gently until the serum is fully absorbed.
The best effect is achieved by using the product both in the morning and evening.
We recommend using a +15 SPF (Sun Protection Factor) cream, let your Retinol work for 2-3 minutes before applying SPF cream.

Jeg elsker denne! Absolut yndlings item i min hudpleje rutine
I was a bit scared because I have sensitive skin, but this is the only retinol product that I've tried that doesn't irritate my skin or make me break out after using it. It doesn't have a fragrance, which I appreciate!
It leaves the skin very soft and plump since the first application. I've also noticed it helps retain skin moisture.
A little goes a long way!
I love this serum. It has helped heel my skin from rosacea damage, reduced fine lines and Dryeness. I'm a big fan and will keep this serum in my daily skincare rutine. I use it 2 times a day.
