Questions

Asked before buying.

Can I use the retinol serum and the wrinkle cream on the same night?

Yes once your skin is used to retinol. Start by alternating nights, then layer the cream over the serum.

Why vitamin C in the morning?

Vitamin C is an antioxidant that pairs with sunscreen during the day. Retinol belongs at night.

How long does the set last?

Roughly two to three months with daily use.

Is this sold as a kit or shipped separately?

It ships together as a set, with each product in its own retail packaging.

Individual results vary. Appearance benefits only. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
