Mixing the inkey list retinol

Hey peeps <3 I wanted to ask you about my new retinol. I want to mix it to be less strong since I just start using it. I heard that it's not that strong but I want to make sure. Will my moisturizer work or would it be better to use HA with it, as some people recommend?

Agree with Annaya's suggestion. its called Sandwiching retinol. Make sure there is adequate dry time between moisturiser retinol moisturiser. that it has settled in before adding retinol. If that doesnt help with decreasing irritation. You can do short contact therapy. where dry skin, retinol, wait 30mins then wash off with water.

I would mix it with your moisturizer 🥰 you could also change the order and first apply the moisturizer and then the retinol on top to minimize irritation 💙

You can start with bakuchiol if you are scared in using retinol.
