The most effective non-prescription retinoid available, Retinyl Propionate diminishes fine lines, decongests the pores and brightens the skin while protecting the skin from further photo-aging and free radical damage. 

A neurotransmitter inhibitor peptide, commonly referred to as "botox in a bottle", this peptide helps to soften the expression lines created by facial movement. 

A topical form of Vitamin B3 which reduces inflammation and redness, minimizes pore size, stimulates new collagen growth, and fades hyperpigmentation for a more even skin tone.

By inhibiting the enzyme necessary for pigment production, this naturally derived corrector helps to fade pigmentation while offering antioxidant protection.

Rich in vitamins and antioxidants, this therapeutic botanical boosts moisture while encouraging healthy cell regeneration.

Retinols, the most effective anti-aging ingredient on the market, are a bit misunderstood. While we've been told they stimulate new collagen growth to help treat and prevent wrinkles, you may be wondering, "How do they do that?"

Retinols are essentially cell communicators (or what I like to call "skin therapists") and their job is to rehab damaged cells to prevent further self-sabotage and encourage new healthy cells to rise up to the surface of the skin.

This "rescue and revival" mission leaves a wake of new collagen growth deep in the skin which smooths, brightens, and reverses the signs of skin aging.

Our Pro-Retinol Serum contains retinyl propionate which is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

A pregnancy/breastfeeding safe alternative to help stimulate new collagen growth to firm and tighten the skin is our Firming Peptide Serum. To safely smooth the texture and brighten the skin while expecting, you may also use our Radiant Renewal Serum.

Retinols are notorious for causing dryness and irritation on the skin which is why we formulate with a mild but effective form of retinol called Retinyl Propionate. The multi-layer crystalline micro-spheres deliver the active retinol down deep into the skin while creating an invisible protective shield on the surface of the skin to minimize irritation and dehydration.

While you can still expect some dryness or mild irritation while acclimating to the Pro-Retinol Serum, we suggest introducing it to your evening skin routine a couple of times a week, then slowly increasing the frequency as your skin tolerates. 

While our Pro-Retinol Serum is safe to use on acne-prone skin to revise acne scarring and smooth the texture of the skin, it is important to first acclimate your skin to week 3-4 instructions of the Clear Skincare Set before incorporating it into your customized skincare routine to prevent excessive dryness and irritation.

While most clients report a more even skin tone within the first 30 days, the best results can be seen after 90 days and beyond.
