What is the retinization process?

Is it normal to feel red and irritated skin using Retinol?

Not necessarily, in fact we largely avoid it by doing things right when starting out with Retinol with our adaptation protocol that you just saw. Despite everything, in this period of adaptation (retinization) the skin can become irritated, red, peel, itch, sting, you can feel tight or even get some pimples.

If you do it correctly, it's pretty unlikely to happen at an alarming rate. Maybe you have some tightness, maybe you get a pimple, maybe you feel some irritation or maybe NOT.

As long as it's not too bothersome, continue with your pattern anyway. Think that we have chosen a retinoid that has put our skin to work at a TOP level.

  2. If the irritation bothers you: Reduce the frequency of use and always apply a barrier cream afterwards.
  3. If you get irritated again: Also reduce the amount of product, your skin needs to use it more calmly.
  4. If the irritation has been “very” bothersome: Your skin probably needs a different retinoid to give you great benefits. The Light (Retinyl Palmitate)
