Retinol serum is an effective and gentle treatment for acne, post-acne marks, and uneven skin tone. It works by accelerating skin’s surface cell renewal, and promoting natural exfoliation to reveal fresh, healthy-looking skin. It also has the added benefit of helping to improve fine lines, discoloration, tone, and texture.3 Just be sure to use it at night only, and wear sunscreen during the day, as it can make your skin more sensitive to UV rays.

Why are Ceramides in Serum Beneficial to Skin?
Ceramides are lipids that are known to comprise up to 50% of your natural skin barrier. Think of them as the glue that holds your skin cells together to help seal in moisture and protect against impurities. Ceramides are vital to the health of your skin and play a key role in your skin’s protective barrier. Each of our products are formulated with three essential ceramides for exactly these reasons.
