Please note:
-Some people may experience a delayed sensitized reaction to one percent retinol. Do not assume that if no reaction is seen after a few applications that you can apply this product more frequently. Pay close attention to how your skin responds, and adjust usage accordingly.
-If sensitization occurs (redness, flaking, tenderness, or drying of skin), reduce frequency of use.
-If sensitization persists, discontinue use.
-Protect your skin daily with sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater.
