Slow On Night Retinoserum

It is best to use the Retinoserum only during your evening skin care routine.

Yes. The formula of the product was designed to ensure that people with all skin types (combination, oily, dry, or normal) can use it.

Due to the content of retinoids, pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their physician before using the product.

Use the Slow On Night Retinoserum as needed, depending on the condition of your skin. Retinol and its derivatives should be gradually incorporated into your skin care routine. If you have not used retinol before, use the product 1–2 times a week and observe how your skin reacts. If there is no adverse reaction (irritation, redness, itching, discomfort), increase the frequency to 3–4 times a week. Do not apply onto damaged skin. Avoid exposure to sunlight and remember to regularly use an SPF product. 

Our advice is to stop using the product for a few days, and limit the use of skin care products as much as possible during this time — just cleanse your skin, moisturize it, and apply an SPF product. Once your skin has fully healed, you can try using the Retinoserum again, but less frequently — just once or twice a week.

Yes. It is a highly specialized product (serum with Retinyl Retinoate) with no fragrance, which minimizes the risk of skin irritation.

We suggest trying the “sandwich technique” when using the product: first use the Slow On Lipid Barrier Renewal Cream, and then the Retinoserum (as opposed to the standard procedure). This way, retinoid penetration into the epidermis will be more limited, and the product will not be as powerful.

You should use an SPF product all year round, regardless of your current skin care routine. However, if you use retinoids, this is even more important, as they make the epidermal barrier thinner, so the skin may be more prone to discoloration. 

Example skincare routine:

Step 1. Cleanse

Every skincare routine should start with thorough, yet gentle cleansing.

• In the morning, all you need to do is wash your face once using the Pure On Gentle Cleansing Gel or the Pure On Make-up Remover and Cleansing Lotion — the choice depends on your preference and current needs of your skin.
• If you have put on make up and/or SPF, it is recommended to cleanse your skin twice. First use the Pure On Make-up Remover and Cleansing Lotion, and then the Pure On Cleansing Gel.

Step 2. Apply face mist

Apply the Pure On face mist on clean and dry skin. This will moisturize your skin, help combat free radicals, and support healthy microbiota on your skin right at the start of your beauty routine.

Step 3. Apply serum

Once you have applied the mist, wait 10 minutes, and then use the Slow On Peptide Serum (or the Slow On Retinoserum — in your evening skin care routine). 

Step 4. Moisturize and regenerate

Finish your routine by applying the Slow On Smoothing Cream (in the morning) or the Slow On Lipid Barrier Renewal Cream (in the evening). If you have oily or combination skin, we recommend using the smoothing cream both in the morning and in the evening.

Step 5. Take care of the eye area

Do not forget about the delicate eye area — apply the Glow On eye cream. Remember to apply the product on clean and dry skin. Adapt the frequency of eye cream use to the condition and needs of your skin.

Step 6. Protect your skin against the sun
