How To Use It - The Anna Way
Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin in the evening after cleansing and toner. Follow with a hydrating moisturizer.
Start by using 2–3 nights per week and gradually increase frequency as your skin adjusts. Always wear SPF during the day when using retinol products.
Anna's Pro Tip:
If you're new to retinol, consistency is more important than using it every night. Pair it with hydrating and barrier-supporting products to keep your skin comfortable while still seeing beautiful long-term results.
