Retinol Serum Formula

Never used Retinol? 0.1% or 0.04% may sound like a small amount but more isn't always better when it comes to retinol. Even the smallest amount of retinol has been proven to do wonders for the skin. Retinol can cause sensitivity to the skin which is another reason why you don't want to use too much. Only those with stubborn skin concerns need a high percentage or retinol. This purchase will come with a 0.1% retinol serum formula/recipe and a 0.04% retinol serum formula/recipe.

Not only is retinol great for mature skin and preventing aging it is also great for acne because it can unclog pores, prevent pores from clogging in the future, and is said to help reduce the formation of acne scars.
