Retinol serum & booster

In your skincare routine, your serum should contain retinol to combat the signs of aging, improve skin texture, and reduce impurities. By applying it correctly and combining it with moisturizing and barrier-strengthening ingredients, you can achieve the best results and enjoy a youthful complexion. Whether as a retinol booster, retinol oil, or a cream with retinol, start using it slowly and pay attention to your skin's reaction.

THE EFFECT OF RETINOL SERUM

Retinol promotes cell renewal and collagen production, leading to smoother and firmer skin. It reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin texture, and refines pores. Additionally, it helps combat impurities by regulating sebum production and keeping pores clear. Our colibri Vitamin A Serum contains 0.3% vitamin A derivatives.

RETINOL SERUM: HOW OFTEN, WHEN & COMBINATION

Despite its many benefits, retinol can also cause side effects such as dryness, redness, and skin irritation. To minimize these irritations and optimally care for your skin, ingredients like hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, aloe vera, panthenol, and ceramides should not be missing from your skincare routine. A gentle acclimatization, rich moisturization, and broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 are also important. Retinol products should be used in the evening, starting with a low dosage and only once a week initially. With the right application and supportive products, you can enjoy the positive effects and maximize your anti-aging care.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can retinol irritate the skin?

Retinol can make the skin more sensitive and lead to dryness, redness, peeling, and irritation. This is because it exfoliates the top layer of the skin and accelerates cell production. These effects can be particularly strong if you are new to using retinol or are using a product with a high concentration. However, with a slow acclimation process, moisturizing and barrier-strengthening products, careful application, and a bit of patience, retinol can be used safely and effectively to improve skin texture and combat signs of aging.

Which retinol serum is the best for me?

Retinol is a highly effective ingredient in skincare, available in different concentrations and formulations. Important factors in choosing the right one include your skin type, your previous experience with retinol, your personal skincare goals, and which other ingredients are part of your skincare routine. Feel free to contact our customer service at any time to find the right concentration and application method for your skin needs.

When should you use retinol?

Retinol should ideally be used in the evening. The reason for this is that retinol can make the skin more sensitive to UV radiation. By applying it in the evening, you minimize the risk of sun damage and maximize the skin's regeneration processes that occur during sleep. Apply your retinol product after cleansing your face and ensure adequate moisturizing afterward. During the day, a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a high SPF should be used.
