  • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles with gentle 0.1% retinol concentration
  • Improves skin elasticity and firmness using advanced liposome delivery
  • Hydrates and soothes irritation with panthenol and ceramides
  • Calms sensitive skin with Truecica blend (centella asiatica, tea tree, mugwort)
  • Strengthens skin barrier to prevent moisture loss and sensitivity
  • Brightens skin tone with niacinamide and natural extracts

Perfect For These Skin Concerns:

✓ Sensitive skin types seeking anti-aging benefits
✓ Retinol beginners wanting gentle introduction
✓ Fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of elasticity
✓ Dry, dull, or mature skin

✓ Anyone wanting clean, vegan skincare

How to Use This Retinol Serum:

Week 1-2: Apply 2-3 drops to clean, dry skin 2x per week in evening
Week 3-4: Increase to every other night as skin builds tolerance
Week 5+: Use nightly if skin tolerates well
Always follow with moisturizer and use SPF 30+ during the day

Powerful Ingredient Breakdown:

  • Retinol (0.1%): Clinically proven to reduce wrinkles and improve skin texture
  • Retinal: More potent than retinol, converts directly to retinoic acid
  • Bakuchiol: Plant-based retinol alternative that's gentle on sensitive skin
  • Niacinamide: Minimizes pores, controls oil, and brightens skin
  • Centella Asiatica: Soothes inflammation and promotes healing
  • Ceramides: Restore and maintain healthy skin barrier function
  • Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Deeply hydrates and calms irritation

Clean Beauty You Can Trust:

This serum is EVE VEGAN certified and formulated without 20 harmful chemicals including parabens, sulfates, and artificial fragrances. The hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic formula ensures safety for even the most reactive skin types.

What Makes This Different from Other Retinol Serums:

Unlike harsh retinol products that can cause redness and peeling, this formula uses patented elastic liposome technology to deliver active ingredients deeper into skin while minimizing surface irritation. The unique combination of three retinoid forms (retinol, retinal, bakuchiol) provides comprehensive anti-aging benefits suitable for daily use.

Expected Results Timeline:

2-4 weeks: Smoother, more hydrated skin texture
6-8 weeks: Visible reduction in fine lines and improved elasticity
12+ weeks: Significant improvement in wrinkles, firmness, and overall skin quality

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this retinol serum really safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, this serum is specifically formulated for sensitive skin with a gentle 0.1% retinol concentration. It combines retinol, retinal, and bakuchiol (a plant-based retinol alternative) to provide anti-aging benefits while minimizing irritation. The formula is designed to be much gentler than traditional retinol products, making it suitable for those who typically experience sensitivity with retinol-based skincare.
How should I use this retinol serum and how often?
Start by using the serum 2-3 times per week in your evening routine only, as retinol increases sun sensitivity. Apply a few drops to clean, dry skin before your moisturizer. As your skin builds tolerance, you can gradually increase to nightly use. Dr. Luke recommends mixing it with your favorite moisturizer initially to help your skin adjust to the ingredient. Always follow with SPF during the day.
What results can I expect and how long before I see them?
This serum helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles while improving overall skin texture and tone. Most users begin to notice smoother, more radiant skin within 2-4 weeks of consistent use. Significant anti-aging results, including reduction in fine lines and improved skin firmness, typically become visible after 8-12 weeks of regular use. Results may vary depending on individual skin type and consistency of use.
Can I use this serum with other skincare products?
Yes, this serum is designed to boost the effectiveness of other products in your skincare routine. However, avoid using it with other active ingredients like AHA/BHA acids, vitamin C, or benzoyl peroxide on the same night to prevent irritation. You can layer it under your regular moisturizer and use it alongside gentle cleansers, hydrating toners, and niacinamide. Always introduce new products gradually when using retinol.
Are there any side effects or precautions I should know about?
While formulated for sensitive skin, some users may initially experience mild dryness, slight redness, or peeling as skin adjusts to retinol. This is normal and usually subsides within 1-2 weeks. To minimize side effects, start with less frequent application and always use sunscreen during the day, as retinol increases photosensitivity. Discontinue use if severe irritation occurs, and avoid use during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless approved by your healthcare provider.
