When is the Best Time to Use Retinol Products?


Always, always, ALWAYS use your retinol products at night.  Each of our licensed, professional estheticians at Chic Esthetiq Med Spa & Laser Center will always tell you to use your retinol products at night.  This is because retinol products contain Vitamin A and can make your skin more sensitive to the sun causing even further sun damage, which further reduces the efficacy of the product and can cause further sun damage.
If you’re not sure if one of your products contains retinol, check the label.  Each of our products will direct you to use the product in the morning and at night, just in the morning or just at night.  For best results, cleanse your skin, apply toner, your retinol product then finish up your night time skin regimen with a good moisturizer before nodding off.  You’ll be so much happier with your results and feel better about the money spent on products that are working as they are intended for optimum results.
For a skin care routine customized to your needs, call 713-909-3088 for a complementary med spa consultation at our Pearland laser clinic.
