Final Step: Sunscreen (AM Only)
If your moisturizer doesn’t contain SPF, you will need to apply an additional sunscreen. We recommend looking for something around 30 SPF to ensure your skin is protected from harsh rays. Even if you aren’t going to be in the sun all day, you still need sunscreen.
We recommend:
Unseen Sunscreen SPF 40
Countersun Mineral Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30
Retinol (PM Only)
Retinols are essential to reducing fine lines and wrinkles and textural irregularities. It’s a synthetic form of Vitamin A, and it works to help skin cells regenerate quicker. It’s often used to prevent and reduce the appearance of acne scars, pigmentation, and fine lines and wrinkles.
You may experience what is called purging, which is where your skin is adjusting to the retinol, so you may experience blemishes. Apply this on clean dry skin before your moisturizer in the evening. After a month or so of use, your skin should adjust, but ask your dermatologists if you have any questions.
