"I am super reactive to most retinols resulting in redness, irritation and excessive peeling. Because of ALASTIN’s patented formulation, it is encapsulated in a solid lipid, which improves the delivery of the retinol. So I get all the benefits of using my retinol without the downtime."

United StatesI have been using Renewal Retinol for about 3 months now and am thrilled with the changes I have seen in my skin. I have used many different types of anti-aging products including Retin-A and glycolic acid products for years, but have gotten much better results with the Renewal Retinol. It isn't too harsh and has made my skin so much brighter and softer. This product is a keeper for me.
United StatesI think the Retinol is working great - I am 75 with lots of sun damage - have had a bit of ‘work’ done but lots of wrinkles … I was using 2.5 but purchased a 5% and have not had any negative reaction … I use the recovery product in the morning and the retinal at night … so just once daily - very happy with ALASTIN - amazing clean moisturizing products!
United StatesAble to use it every night before bed. Sometimes apply the Alastin moisturizer over it.
United StatesI like the retinol but can only use it every other day. My skin will start peeling if I use it every night.
United StatesAmazing product
We recommend you consult with your health care provider on which strength retinol is best for your skin type. Generally, those that have previously included a retinol in their regimen can safely use the 0.5 retinol. Those who are new to retinol should begin using the 0.25 retinol until tolerated nightly then if desired, can switch to the 0.5 retinol.
We suggest you begin using two to three evenings per week and increase gradually until tolerated nightly.
Yes, it is formulated to be used on all skin types (oily, combination, dry). If you have specific skin concerns, please consult with your health care provider.
Renewal Retinols has gone through Comedogenicity testing to determine if the product can clog pores, which it passed - proving it does NOT clog pores.
This product uses an airless pump packaging. This non-pressurized vacuum dispensing system does not contain a dip tube and instead features a mechanical pump to provide a smoother delivery and more precise dosage. The dispenser also helps maintain the product’s integrity by preventing excessive exposure to air and other contaminants. When using your dispenser for the first time, you may need to “prime” it to access your product.
Step 1: Keeping the cap on, turn the bottle upside down and firmly pat (4 or 5 times) into the palm of your hand.
Step 2: Remove the cap and prime the pump by pressing it several times for the product to begin dispensing. This may take 10-15 pumps.
TIP: If the product does not prime successfully, please repeat both steps. Due to the airless nature of our pumps this may take a few tries.
We use state of the art airless packaging, which does not contain dip tubes, but rather a diaphragm that rises to evacuate the product. When you depress the pump, it creates a vacuum effect, drawing the product upwards and will allow for almost all of the product to be dispensed without left over. The double wall packaging we use can seem as though there is less product appropriate to the size of the bottle; however, it not only provides extra protection, but our products are over filled to ensure that the label claim volume is what is actually dispensed.
