How to Use Our
Tretinoin

For Clearer, Smoother & Youthful-Looking Skin

Important: Always wash your hands thoroughly before starting your skincare routine.

Directions

Start with Clean, Dry Skin
Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Wait 20–30 minutes before applying.
Use a Pea-Sized Amount
A little goes a long way.
Apply a Thin Layer
Apply to the entire face or to affected areas. Avoid the eyes, lips, corners of the nose and any broken skin.
Gently Spread and Allow to Absorb
Do not rub or layer.
Start Slowly
First 2 weeks – 2 times a week. Next 2 weeks – every other night. Then increase to every night as tolerated.
Always Moisturize After Applying
This helps reduce dryness and irritation.
Use Sunscreen Every Morning
Apply sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) every morning.
Avoid Other Strong Actives
Do not use with other strong actives (AHA, BHA, benzoyl peroxide, etc.) in the same routine.
Use Consistently
For best results.

You may experience mild dryness, redness or peeling in the beginning — this is normal and usually improves as your skin adjusts.
Be patient. Visible results take time (6–12 weeks).
Keep your skin moisturized and hydrated.
Avoid harsh scrubs and exfoliants.
Use gentle skincare products.

Result: Helps reduce acne, unclog pores, fade dark spots, improve skin texture and promote a smoother, clearer, more radiant complexion.

A patch test is recommended before first use. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
