Illuminate All-In-One Cream

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.
