Each evening, apply 1-2 pumps on to clean, dry skin, avoiding the eye area. If you haven't used a retinol-based product before, you need to introduce this slowly to allow your skin to acclimatise. Start by applying 1-2x week for the first couple of weeks, gradually building up to nightly over the course of 4-6 weeks. This should minimise any purging, irritation or peeling, which can happen with retinol whilst the skin adjusts.
