Only use retinol products during your night skincare regime and always apply sunscreen during the day as retinol will make your skin more sensitive to the suns effects. Apply one pump size of serum in the PM after you cleanse & tone your face. You can layer serums but be sure to put water based serums on before any oil based serums and/or products. After application be sure to apply a heavier moisturizer as Retinol can cause skin to dry out, especially if you just starting your treatment.
