5. How do I decide between The Serum and The Retinol Serum?

It is recommended to use The Serum in the morning and The Retinol Serum at night to maximize benefits. The Serum contains Vitamin C, which is optimal for morning use, while the pure retinol in The Retinol Serum is most effective when used in the evening. The Serum's lightweight gel texture targets dark spots, dullness, loss of elasticity, and fine lines and wrinkles. The Retinol Serum, with its lightweight cream texture, targets blemishes, uneven texture, and deep lines and wrinkles, leaving your skin plump, smooth, and refined.

6. Do I need to wear SPF with The Retinol Serum?

It is recommended to use The Retinol Serum in the evening. However, if you choose to use it in the morning, it is highly recommended to apply with a clean, mineral SPF. Using SPF daily is advised regardless of which serum you use in the morning.

7. Can I use The Serum and The Retinol Serum at the same time?

It is not recommended to use The Serum and The Retinol Serum at the same time. Instead, use The Serum in the morning and The Retinol Serum at night to maximize benefits.
