pHformula VITA A 24 hour cream - 50 ml

A retinol night cream for skin that could benefit from a finer texture: fine lines, a rougher texture, and lingering pigment spots.

Why it works

Retinol is often described as something that peels your skin, but that is incorrect. Retinol signals your skin cells to renew themselves faster. As a result, the top layer becomes more even and pigment does not linger as long. Therefore, flaking is not proof that it works; it is a sign that you have gone too fast. This cream contains pure retinol combined with a double antioxidant complex and a moisture complex featuring hyaluronic acid, trehalose, urea, sodium lactate, allantoin, and glycerin, so your skin can keep up with that higher pace without drying out.

The texture is a soft, nourishing cream that absorbs without leaving a greasy residue.

For whom

For those who see fine lines appearing, have a dull complexion, or notice that their skin feels rougher than before. Less obvious but logical: oilier skin prone to clogged pores and breakouts also benefits from a faster renewal rate. If you have very reactive skin, it is better for us to look at it together first.

How to use it

Only in the evening, after your cleanser and serum. Start with one to three times a week and build up slowly as your skin tolerates it. Apply to the face, neck, and décolleté using light circular motions. Retinol makes your skin more sensitive to the sun, so broad-spectrum sun protection during the day is a must, even on gray days. A common mistake I often see: using too much product. A pea-sized amount is enough for your entire face.

What I would like to share with you

Retinol requires patience. Usually, you won't see much in the first few weeks, and sometimes your skin feels a bit drier while it adjusts. That is exactly the moment when most people stop, and just then is when it starts. Count on two to three months before you really see the difference in texture. With clients who persevere and do not forget their sun protection, I notice the uniformity above all: the skin looks calmer and the light hits it differently. If you are going to be in the sun a lot for a period, scale back for a while and pick it up again afterward.
