Cerave Resurfacing Retinol Serum

Hi! I just bought this product to help with my PIE and I really wanna hear about your experiences or tips. Since it's considered as a "gentle" retinol, did you experience irritation or purging? If so, how long? I really need help as this is my first time using a retinol and I have sensitive skin that gets irritated really quickly 😔

Hi Heelari, welcome to Picky 🤗 I've been using this gentle Retinol serum for about a month. I apply it once a week, using sandwich 🥪 method.(moisturizer>retinol>moisturizer) It's been good. No irritation nor purging, thankfully! I've begun using it twice weekly now. I might increase to thrice weekly, after a month. I'd appreciate if you followed me on IG. I'll follow you back 💕 @blueskies8whiteclouds

Maybe you can start slowly one times or 2 times a week. Iam ever heard if use retinol and niacinamide together can minimeze irritations (be better to patch test).
