Should I use Retinol in addition to the Trifecta? Please advise?

Hi Grace—Thanks for your comment! Trifecta covers all of your daily skincare needs. While there won’t be any need for another product, you can add a Retinol if you’d like, as a supplement to the Retinol we already have in Illuminate. You would simply apply any additional products after your Trifecta routine.

Remember that individual responses to Retinol can vary, and it’s essential to listen to your skin. If you have any concerns or experience persistent irritation, consult with your dermatologist for personalized advice.

Well. Let me tell you. There’s a night & day difference in the quality of my skin on Trifecta vs OTC facial cleansing products. A word of advice… You really need to buy the Enrich as it’s a product that should be included post your Trifecta routine. * It really is a final step which enhances the benefits of Trifecta to round out everything. Hooked on this product and my skin drinks it up. I use it twice a day… And when I wake up in the morning, what I see in the mirror is WOW. Noticeable! Using Trifecta twice daily is a must. 😁 Hands down Trifecta delivers 💖☺️

Hi..I’ve just recently started using the Trifecta. Let me just say it’s amazing, luxurious and a treat to use. Amazingly gentle for my reactive/sensitive rosacea skin too, I am really pleasantly shocked at how well it’s gone in the first week with hardly any sensitivity.

My question is…does it have “enough” retinol and how and what brand (because of counter contradictions) retinol serum should a person use if they wanted to bump up their dosage of retinol? Is a prescription strength needed to see results?

It sounds like maybe Dr Karam might need to formulate a few retinol stand alone products in different strengths that will integrate perfectly with Trifecta so we can add extra retinol as desired ;-)

Thanks so much 💕
