Push Through The Peeling!
Because retinols help the skin exfoliate, they can create some peeling or irritation on the skin. If you can stick with the retinol for 8 weeks, you will notice that any dryness/irritation will dissipate and your skin will be in a much healthier condition.
You must be consistent with your retinol or it won’t be effective! With consistent use, there will be dramatic changes in the skin within about 6 months of use.
