Looking to smooth fine lines, even out skin tone, or improve breakouts? Reviving Serum is a beginner-friendly 1% retinol serum, designed to gently introduce retinol into your routine while keeping irritation to a minimum.
Retinol is a powerhouse ingredient that supports skin renewal by encouraging cell turnover. Over time, it helps to:
-
Reduce fine lines and wrinkles by boosting collagen production
-
Brighten dull skin and even out pigmentation
-
Smooth rough texture and refine pores
-
Regulate oil production, which can help minimise breakouts
To make retinol easier to use, we’ve combined it with hyaluronic acid, helping to keep your skin hydrated while minimising the dryness or irritation that can sometimes come with retinol use. Plus, there's no need for layering multiple serums—just apply and go!
How to use the Reviving Serum
We recommend that Retinol should only be used at night.
Start slowly to let your skin adjust. If you have sensitive skin, we recommend trying a 5ml size first for a patch test before committing to a larger size.
-
Week 1: Use once a week. After cleansing, apply your toner, then a thin layer of moisturiser, followed by the serum, and finish with another layer of moisturiser.
-
Week 2: Increase to twice a week.
-
Week 3: Increase to three times a week (you may work up to daily use, but this isn’t necessary to see results).
Always apply to a dry face and protect the delicate eye area with an eye cream before application.
If using a vitamin C serum, apply that in the morning and the Reviving Serum in the evening.
Daily SPF is essential when using any retinol product.
Results take time—you may start to see improvements in a few weeks, but the biggest changes (brighter skin, fewer fine lines, and better texture) happen over 3–6 months with consistent use.
Not suitable for use during pregnancy.
