Ultimate Skin Ageing Fighter

Age Gracefully

Hydroxypinacolone retinoate is a highly stable form of retinoid that gives us anti-ageing benefits without causing irritation. Add the plant-based, stable retinol-alternative Bidens pilosa extract, and you have an even stronger action: wrinkles, fine lines and age spots are reduced, while skin texture, collagen and elastin production are improved.

Reduces Blemishes

The potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of thyme extract help improve skin blemishes (acne, pimples and blocked pores), smoothing uneven, rough skin as it decreases excess oil and pore size.

Soothes Inflammation, Protects & Fights Ageing

Enjoy a calm, nourished, strengthened and radiant complexion with our unique, soothing plant-extract blend that includes olive leaf, magnolia bark, camelina sativa seed oil, and bisabolol from chamomile.

Clean, Vegan & Cruelty-free Formula

Our vegan and cruelty-free clean formula is suitable for all skin types and is formulated without mineral oils, synthetic colour, sulphates and phthalates.

FAQ

What is Youth Activating Retinoid Serum?

It is an advanced skin-smoothing serum that targets visible signs of ageing with retinoids and a soothing retinol-alternative. It reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and blemishes, as it boosts elasticity and firmness and improves skin texture.

How is Youth Activating Retinoid Serum different from other retinol and retinoid products?

Youth Activating Retinoid Serum formulation contains a highly stable and non-irritating retinoid, plus a plant-based retinoid alternative. While it fights against signs of ageing, it strengthens the skin barrier function and hydrates skin.

What skin types can use Youth Activating Retinoid Serum ?

It is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and reactive skin (introduced slowly), and multiple skin concerns: sun damage, ageing skin, tired and dull skin, lacklustre and dehydrated skin, as well as acne-prone and oily skin.

What is the correct order for applying Youth Activating Retinoid Serum in a skincare routine?

Cleanser > Toner/Essence > Serum and Eye Serum > Lightweight Moisturiser (Optional) > Youth Activating Retinoid Serum > Moisturiser

Why must I apply Youth Activating Retinoid Serum at night?

Youth Activating Retinoid Serum should be applied at night because it enhances the skin’s natural repair process, which happens while you sleep. Plus, it can make skin sun-sensitive, so don’t use it during the day.

Do I need to use sunscreen the next day after using Youth Activating Retinoid Serum?

Yes, this is very important. Retinoids make skin more sun-sensitive, so they are prone to sunburn, which can cause skin damage. We strongly recommend applying sunscreen, such as Invity Youth Activating Invisible Mineral Sunscreen SPF50 PA+++, every morning.

How often should I use Youth Activating Retinoid Serum?

For beginners and people with sensitive or reactive skins, Youth Activating Retinoid Serum can be applied on alternate nights for 1 month, then switch to daily use. For regular users, it can be applied every night.

Can I use Youth Activating Exfoliating Serum and Youth Activating Retinoid Serum together?

You can use both serums - just use them on different nights.
Use Youth Activating Exfoliating Serum 2 times a week, and Retinoid Serum on the other nights. If you are starting out, use a skin-cycling routine until your skin acclimatises.
Night 1: use Exfoliating Serum.
Night 2: use Retinoid Serum.
Night 3: recovery night (with Youth Activating Facial Sheet Mask).
Repeat.

Why does my skin peel after I started using Youth Activating Retinoid Serum?

Peeling is a normal process when using retinoids, as they speed up your skin cell turnover, revitalising skin by inducing exfoliation of dead skin cells. To lessen this, try using the ‘sandwich’ method: apply a lightweight moisturiser such as Youth Activating Microemulsion before using Youth Activating Retinoid Serum. Or, apply Youth Activating Retinoid Serum on alternate nights until you feel comfortable with daily use.
