Frequently asked questions
- Can I use Retinol after the peels?
Yes, we’ve formulated all of our Advanced Retinol + Ferulic products to pair perfectly with our Alpha Beta Daily Peels.
- Can I use Retinol with Vitamin C?
Yes, retinol and vitamin C can be safely used together. When used in the same routine, vitamin C and retinol provide enhanced results. Some people may find the combination too active when used simultaneously, so we recommend using your more potent treatments and serums at opposite times of the day if irritation occurs.
- Can I use Retinol in the day or is it for nighttime only?
We recommend using the Perfectly Dosed Retinol Treatments in the PM to reap the full effects of these formulas.
- What is Ferulic Acid?
Ferulic acid is an antioxidant found in all plant leaves that provides protection against sun exposure. In the Advanced Retinol + Ferulic line, ferulic acid neutralizes free radicals released during retinol’s conversion process to its active form which renders retinol significantly gentler and more tolerable on skin.
- How does retinol work? Does it exfoliate my skin?
Retinol renews skin cells while alpha and beta- hydroxy acids exfoliate at the surface. Alpha and beta- hydroxy acids remove skin cells at the surface while retinol activates the basement layer of skin to produce new cells more quickly and migrate upwards to replace aging, damaged and hyperpigmented skin.
- Can I use Perfectly Dosed Retinol Treatments on sunburned skin or a sensitized/damaged skin barrier?
If experiencing abnormal sensitivity or damaged skin barrier due to things like over exposure to UVA/UVB rays, we recommend being gentler with your skin and focusing on only cleansing and moisturizing until your skin gets back to its normal, healthy balance.
- How do I use this with the Alpha Beta® Daily Peel?
We recommend pulsing the Perfectly Dosed Retinol Treatment strength of your choice into your routine 2-3x nights a week while skin gets acclimated, increasing frequency according to your skin’s tolerance while using Daily Peels in the morning. As always, it’s important to listen to your skin’s unique needs, so feel free to adjust your Alpha Beta Daily Peel and Perfectly Dosed Retinol Treatment’s strength as needed – stepping down in peel strength while skin acclimates and adjusts to the more potent retinol treatment, then ramping back up as tolerance is built.
- Why do the Perfectly Dosed Retinol Treatments show the percent of retinol included in the formula but the other Advanced Retinol + Ferulic products do not?
We knew that if we were going to introduce stronger treatments to our Advanced Retinol + Ferulic range of products, we had to be sure we did it transparently and empowered our customers with the knowledge of the exact strength they’d be incorporating into their existing retinol routine so as to make the best decisions for their unique skin needs. All of our Advanced Retinol + Ferulic products are texted to be used together, but our newest and strongest treatments are clearly marked with their pure liquid retinol concentrations for those working on targeting more stubborn anti-aging and texture concerns.

Ingredients
Key Ingredients
Pure Liquid Retinol A vitamin A derivative, Retinol stimulates cell turnover, smoothing texture and promoting skin’s natural collagen production. It supports skin’s natural collagen production to improve signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles and preventing new signs of aging from surfacing. It also helps to control oil production to help keep skin clear and uncongested.
Squalane & Hyaluronic Acid Powerfully soothing and hydrating combination found natural in the body that replenishes and strengthens the moisture barrier. Squalane is an oil-free lipid that lubricates the skin's surface and locks moisture in the skin while hyaluronic acid is a powerful humectant that binds to water molecules, holding up to 1000x it’s weight in water and penetrate at various depths in skin, providing optimal hydration and skin plumping.
Ferulic Acid Found in all plant leaves and cell walls, Ferulic Acid protects against UV-induced free radical damage that contributes to aging. It counteracts the potentially irritating effects of retinol while boosting its anti-aging benefits.
Bakuchiol & Rambutan An anti-aging complex with retinol-like benefits without irritating skin or throwing it off balance. Bakuchiol is the first retinol-like ingredient to clinically demonstrate the same level of efficacy as retinol without redness or irritation. It stimulates the production of collagen to promote skin plumpness. Like retinol, it increases cell turnover to diminish signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of firmness. Rambutan is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect natural collagen levels in skin from the negative affects of environmental aggressors.
