1. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE FROM PRESCRIPTION-STRENGTH RETINOL?

Retinoids are the group of Vitamin A derivatives that have been proven to stimulate cell renewal. The active ingredient of Vitamin A is retinoic acid. This serum contains two powerfully gentle retinoid ingredients, retinaldehyde and retinol. The retinaldehyde in this formula is time released to ensure maximum stability and absorption while allowing the Vitamin A active work gradually while you sleep for maximum efficacy.

2. WHY SHOULD I ONLY USE THIS AT NIGHT?

We recommend this serum in evening use because retinol and retinal can cause sensitivity to the sun. It is also important to wear a daily sunscreen every morning and reapply during the day.

3. DOES THIS PRODUCT QUALIFY FOR CLEAN AT SEPHORA?

Yes, our Squalane + Retinol Night Serum is part of the Clean at Sephora collection. This serum is best for those concerned with signs of aging, including fine lines, wrinkles and uneven skin tone. It can be used both as a preventative and corrective treatment, but it should not be used while pregnant.

4. HOW CAN I COMBINE WITH OTHER BIOSSANCE SERUMS?

We recommend using Squalane + Retinol Night Serum in the evening and choosing a day serum, like our Squalane + Vitamin C Dark Spot Serum or Squalane + Copper Peptide Serum. Be sure to start using a small, pea size quantity of retinol when starting out, even alternating between the nights used. Since our retinol is a powerful serum, we don't recommend layering with other treatment products, but encourage you to layer with other moisturizers and oils.

5. WHY DOES THIS INCLUDE BOTH RETINOL AND RETINAL?

Retinol and retinal work together to increase performance and minimize irritation of the skin for powerful, yet gentle results.

Apply pea-size amount to clean, dry skin at night.

Start by using 2x per week and gradually increase.

Apply sunscreen the following morning after use.

Please Note: Retinoids are not recommended for those pregnant or nursing; always consult a physician before using new products.
