What’s the concentration (or how much) of Retinol in Illuminate?
The retinol in Illuminate was never meant as a stand alone ingredient, it is just one of over a dozen active ingredients used for brightening and improving uneven skin tone. The Illuminate was formulated to address various signs of aging skin - dryness, uneven skin tone, firmness, decrease the appearance of lines, wrinkles, smooth texture, brightening and radiance. The formula is a cutting edge product that produces results but has to be tolerated for all skin types and textures even for sensitive skin; therefore the concentration of the retinol has had to be carefully modulated to meet these specifications. The retinol comes in a form of a patented complex designed to maximize absorption and efficacy.
Use of full strength retinols and Retin-A cuts the pool of participants significantly as most people can’t tolerate it therefore they stop using it. In this case, even at low doses, it is still creating positive anti-aging effects specifically because it is tolerated and people use it 2x a day for time.
For those who want the extra retinol or are already using it, you can use it in conjunction with Illuminate. You would apply it after Rinse.
I love this rich cream , is super Hydrating, my skin feels so smooth, itself works wonders on my sensitive skin, give me youthful, healthy,radiant glow .I used together with the Serum Quench .
Dr. AmirKaram Thank you Very much for creating this High Quality formula for us .I’m 46 No Surgeries just Skin Care and a few Laser treatments DOT/litepeel2 every year)
I have been using this product for several months!! Not only do I notice an incredible difference I have got three friends now that use it!!! Don’t hesitate driving all in on this product! Empty your drawer out and simplify your life!
I guess I’m unique in that I don’t love this product. I got the serum and this as a solution to my endless quest for the right combo of moisture and active ingredients for my 44 year old skin. I have some fine lines, combo skin with crepey under eyes. Used this for a few weeks with the serum as instructed. I found both products to make my face very tight and lackluster compared to other products I’ve used. I tried to isolate which was drying so used the serum alone for a week and that was not the culprit- it’s this cream. I don’t know why no one has posted even a mediocre review but this just doesn’t jive well with my skin- I at least expected it to be moisturizing for the price. I respect dr karam, respect that it’s cruelty free and that he knows what he’s doing- and I hope to get a procedure from him someday! So I hope he doesn’t hold this review against me. It’s sad to see my bottle of Illuminator just sitting in the cabinet bc I’m afraid to use it more than occasionally as I feel like it’s just too drying.
