How to use
  • Cleanse every evening. Start with the Gentle Face Wash. Pat completely dry: both the retinol and the mask go onto dry skin.
  • Retinol nights. Apply 2 to 3 pumps of the Retinol Serum, then follow with a moisturiser. Begin at 2 to 3 nights per week.
  • Mask nights: alternate, never together. On the nights in between, use the Sleep Mask instead of the retinol. Leave on overnight and rinse thoroughly in the morning.

Step 1: Cleanse

Gentle Face Wash

100ml. A mild evening cleanse. Retinol and AHAs both need a clean, dry base.

Hero ingredient

Coconut-derived surfactants

Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate create a low-irritation lather that rinses clean without tightness.

Helps with
  • Over-stripping
  • Tightness after cleansing
  • Suitable for daily use
How to use

Wet face, massage gently for 30 seconds, rinse. Pat completely dry before applying retinol.

30ml. Evening retinol in a lightweight gel with Jojoba and Vitamin E. 2 to 3 nights per week to begin.

Suspended in Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride with Jojoba and Vitamin E, so the barrier stays supported while the active works.

How to use

PM only. Apply 2 to 3 pumps to clean, completely dry skin. Begin 2 to 3 nights per week and build gradually.

How it works

Your Ritual, step by step

  1. 01

    Cleanse every evening

    Start with the Gentle Face Wash. Pat completely dry: both the retinol and the mask go onto dry skin.

    Wait 2 to 3 minutes after cleansing before applying either active.

  2. 02

    Retinol nights

    Apply 2 to 3 pumps of the Retinol Serum, then follow with a moisturiser. Begin at 2 to 3 nights per week.

    Always wear SPF the following morning.

  3. 03

    Mask nights: alternate, never together

    On the nights in between, use the Sleep Mask instead of the retinol. Leave on overnight and rinse thoroughly in the morning.

    Using retinol and AHAs on the same night is the fastest way to damage your barrier. Alternate them.
