Chat with the Avon Lady of NJ, Avon Skin Care

Beauty Certified

Chances are you’ve heard about the benefits of retinol when it comes to reducing the appearance of wrinkles, but might not understand exactly what this hero ingredient is and why it’s so essential to combat aging to your skin.

Isa Knox Clinical has state-of-the-art, youth-boosting technologies, skin-firming collagen stimulators, super-revved resurfacers… and now our highest level of retinol (1%!) for the most advanced visible wrinkle-fighting results ever!  

So let’s chat about retinol!

What does retinol do for my skin?

• It does it all, and is one of the top superhero ingredients in anti-aging skin care products.
• Here’s why: retinol works to stimulate collagen production and accelerate skin turnover, visibly smoothing fine lines and wrinkles. It also helps visibly fade acne marks and discoloration.

Is retinol safe for everyone to use?

Almost any skin type can tolerate retinol, but… Who shouldn’t use retinol?

• Those who have sensitive skin types, as delicate skin can take longer to adjust.
• If you have over-exfoliated skin from at-home or in-office treatments.
• If your skin is sunburned.
• Not recommended for use in women that are pregnant or nursing. For anyone in these categories, suggest trying our Farm Rx Bakuchiol collection, with a plant-based alternative to retinol.

HOW TO USE 1% RETINOL

• I recommend the “low and slow” approach. Start with a pea-sized amount on one night, then wait a few days to check your tolerance. If you don’t experience a reaction, use again. If you do, try mixing the retinol with your moisturizer.
• Use retinol 1-2X per week at first. Gradually work up to 3X per week or every other day.
• Only recommended for PM use, as retinol makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight. And always be sure to use SPF in the AM. Our Solaire collection offers two options, both with SPF 50!

I DON’T HAVE SENSITIVE SKIN, BUT MY SKIN IS REACTING. WHY?

You often go through something called “the purge” when first starting or increasing your retinol dosage. The purge generally causes redness, flakiness or even breakouts. Stick with it! It can take a few weeks, but the end results are worth it!

It’s been a few weeks and my skin is still angry…

There could be various reasons: using too often, too much, using in the AM (a big no-no!) or mixing with other active ingredients like exfoliators or other acids like AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid). This is a case of too much of a good thing, which can be…too much!

Help me fix it!

A reaction is usually due to dryness or irritation and isn’t difficult to fix. Simply pull back on retinol application (and other products with active ingredients, except SPF). Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer designed to help with skin’s repair. For cleansers, think sulfate-free (LXNEW Clean Gel, Cream or Whipped Oil) and moisturizers like Green Goddess Facial Oil or Dr.Belmeur Recovery Cream. Once your skin issue is resolved, you can slowly start adding retinol back to your PM routine.
