  • Product Features

    • SKIN TYPES:
    • Normal, dry, combination, oily
    • WHAT IT DOES:
    • A+ High-Dose Retinoid Serum helps fight the signs of aging and improves the look of congested and UV-damaged skin; it targets fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, dullness and uneven texture
    • The serum combines a 5% retinoid ester blend, 1% liposomal-encapsulated retinol blend and a 0.5% blue green algae with natural retinoid-alternative activity
    • Free of parabens and sulfates SLS and SLES
    • Contains less than 1% of synthetic fragrances
    • Cruelty free and gluten free
    • KEY INGREDIENTS:
    • Retinol ester helps reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines and promotes clearer skin without the drawbacks of retinol
    • CoQ10 may improve the appearance of aging or UV-exposed skin for a healthier-looking, balanced complexion
    • Hawaiian white honey, bisabolol, cactus extract and ginger balance and soothe the skin for a calmer, more even-toned complexion; Hawaiian white honey is a pro-skin humectant that's rich in phytonutrients
    • HOW TO USE:
    • Apply 2-3 pumps in the evening to clean, dry skin
    • For new retinoid users:
    • Use 2 nights, then take 2 nights off
    • Gradually work your way up to using the serum every other night and then every night
    • Follow with a hydrating oil or moisturizer, like Juno
    • Use an AHA serum, like Good Genes Lactic Acid Treatment, on alternate nights to sweep away dead skin cells
    • For sensitive skin:
    • Apply a hydrating oil, like Juno Antioxidant Superfood Face Oil, or moisturizer before applying A+ High-Dose Retinoid Serum

Best retinol

I’ve tried a lot of retinol products. This one seems to have the best concentration without causing my skin to peel. It’s a winner.

Sunday Riley A+

I really like this product. I started using tretinoin recently. I put tretinoin one night then for 2 nights this product (I’m on my second bottle) It doesn’t dry out my skin. Skin is softer, wrinkles a little bit less visible.
