Description

A retinol + peptide serum that works overnight to support the appearance of smoother, firmer, more even-toned skin. Bisabolol and phospholipids soothe while retinol refines, so you get results without the harsh "retinol burn."

What it does

  • Supports smoother, more polished-looking skin over time
  • Retinol promotes surface cell turnover while Hexapeptide-11 helps firm the look of skin
  • Bisabolol calms and soothes, so it's gentle enough for nightly use
  • Lightweight, silky texture that absorbs in seconds with no pilling

How to use

Apply 3 to 4 drops to clean, dry skin at night. Follow with moisturizer. If new to retinol, start every other night and build up. Use sunscreen the morning after application.

How retinol and peptides work together

Retinol is one of the most studied skincare ingredients in the world. It supports the skin's natural cell turnover process, which means the dull, rough surface layer gradually gives way to fresher, smoother-looking skin underneath.

Hexapeptide-11 complements retinol by supporting the appearance of skin firmness and elasticity, addressing what retinol alone doesn't target.

Bisabolol and phospholipids form the soothing delivery system. Bisabolol calms the skin while phospholipids help carry the active ingredients where they need to go, resulting in a serum that's potent without the harsh irritation many people dread.

Frequently asked questions

Will retinol irritate my sensitive skin?
This formula includes bisabolol and nourishing phospholipids to balance retinol's potency with gentle comfort. If you're new to retinol, start with every other night and build up to nightly use. Always follow with moisturizer.
How quickly will I notice changes?
Many users report their skin feels smoother and more hydrated within the first 1 to 2 weeks. More visible refinement in texture and tone typically becomes noticeable around weeks 4 to 8 with consistent nightly use.
Can I use this with my other skincare products?
Yes. Apply after cleansing and before moisturizer. Avoid using with other strong actives like AHAs, BHAs, or vitamin C at the same time to prevent over-exfoliation. Use sunscreen during the day.
Why not just buy a retinol from the drugstore?
Many drugstore retinol serums use retinol alone in a basic carrier. This formula pairs retinol with Hexapeptide-11 for firmness support, plus phospholipids that help deliver active ingredients more effectively into the skin.
Is it safe during pregnancy?
If you are pregnant or nursing, please consult your physician before using any retinol-containing product.
