Exfoliating your skin allows the products afterwards to sink into the skin even easier. This means if you have ever wondered should you use retinol after exfoliating the answer is yes! More specifically Retinal after chemical exfoliating so that the Retinal can penetrate the skin even easier and more effectively, improving your results!

Frequently Asked Questions

Apply Smooth Serum after cleansing at night before your retinal night cream. For first time use, apply it every second night for the first week, then build up to daily use if possible. It's perfectly ok to use every second night on an ongoing basis if this suits your skin.

Generally, we do not recommend using Smooth Serum during the day. This helps minimise the risk of increased photosensitivity and allows the AHAs to work most effectively while the skin is at rest and free from potential interference from makeup or other daytime products.
