Product description

This optimized 2.5% Retinol formula is for experienced Retinol pros. If you’ve been using 1% or 1.5% retinol then you’re ready to graduate to the next level. This holy grail formula results in improved skin texture, boosted collagen production, and diminished dark spots. This is the perfect addition to your nighttime skincare routine.

HEADS UP

2.5% Retinol is for people that have experience using Retinol. This product is very effective for long-time Retinol users. If you're new to the anti-aging game, start with a 0.5% or 1% Retinol formula and then graduate to our formula. Not following this protocol can lead to redness, irritation, and unnecessary irritation.

Retinol—a derivative of vitamin A that boasts a long list of proven benefits—has been called the holy grail of skincare ingredients. With results that include improved skin texture, boosted collagen production, and diminished dark spots, it’s easy to see why beauty lovers all over the world swear by the powerhouse active. But retinol use also comes with its fair share of side effects, like irritation and redness.

Another key tip for using retinol is to incorporate it into your nighttime skincare routine, as it makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight.

INSTRUCTIONS

Don't scrub your skin while using retinol products. Apply retinol in a thin layer to your entire face (be careful not to get it in your mouth, nose, and eyes). You should use a dose that's about the size of a pea. For the first couple weeks of treatment, apply retinol only every other day.

WHEN TO START USING RETINOL

Start when you hit your thirties, as that is when collagen levels in the skin start decreasing more rapidly. But all ages can reap the rewards of a retinol-infused beauty routine.

A mild reaction can be common as your skin adjusts to use. But if your skin is quite irritated, cut out retinol application, along with other skincare products that contain active ingredients, aside from sunscreen. Pare back your routine to a gentle cleanser and fragrance-free moisturizer.

Once the reaction has resolved, you can try retinol again. Using the product less frequently—but on a regular schedule—can be a way to improve tolerability.

The safest retinol i've ever had

I know this is a super long review but I need you all to know how good this works! Retinol has become a staple in many skincare routines, and for good reason. It's a powerful ingredient that can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, fade dark spots and acne scars, and even out skin tone. However, not all retinol products are created equal. That's why I was excited to try Naja's Optimized Retinol 2.5% Maximum Strength product. First of all, I was impressed by the clean ingredient list. This retinol is free from parabens, sulfates, phthalates, and other harmful ingredients that can irritate the skin. As someone with sensitive skin, this was a big plus for me. I also appreciate that the product is vegan and cruelty-free.When it comes to the product itself, I was pleasantly surprised by how gentle it was. I've tried other retinol products in the past that have caused redness, dryness, and flakiness, but I didn't experience any of that with this product. That being said, it's still a potent product and I did experience some mild peeling around my nose and chin after a few days of use. However, this is to be expected with any retinol product and it wasn't anything that a little extra moisturizer couldn't fix. In terms of results, I started seeing a difference in my skin after just a few weeks of use. My fine lines and wrinkles are less noticeable, my dark spots are fading, and my skin just looks brighter and more even overall. I also appreciate that the product comes in an airless pump bottle, which helps to keep the retinol stable and effective. Overall, I'm really impressed with this product. It's effective, gentle, and made with clean ingredients. If you're looking for a retinol product that delivers results without irritation, I highly recommend giving this one a try.

This product is worth every penny.

I love this retinol! It's effective, but not too harsh, and my skin looks and feels so much smoother and more radiant since I started using it. I also love that it's made with clean ingredients.

My skin has never looked brighter or more even.

I was hesitant to try retinol because I have sensitive skin, but this product has been amazing. It's helped reduce my fine lines and wrinkles and even out my skin tone without causing any irritation. I'm so glad I gave it a try.

Did not irritate my skin!

I’ve always wanted to try retinol and was pleasantly surprised when I tested a small area and noticed no irritation. I use this regularly on my skin now and my skin looks great the day after.
