CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum is an advanced skincare serum developed with dermatologists, designed to give skin prone to post-acne marks and enlarged pores a daily evening care step that helps renew the skin surface, improve its texture, reduce the appearance of post-acne marks, and even out skin tone without disrupting its natural barrier. Its formula is based on an effective blend of encapsulated retinol, niacinamide, licorice root extract, 3 essential ceramides, and hyaluronic acid to support skin suffering from post-acne marks, visible pores, uneven texture, or uneven skin tone.

Usage Tips from Beauty Time:

• For the best result, the Beauty Time team recommends using the serum in the evening routine only, because retinol is best used at night with daily sun protection in the morning.
• Start with a very small amount, about the size of a pea, to reduce the possibility of dryness or irritation at the beginning of use.
• For sensitive skin or beginners with retinol, use it once weekly at first, then gradually increase use according to skin tolerance.
• It is preferable to use a moisturizer containing ceramides or hyaluronic acid afterward to help support the skin barrier and reduce the feeling of tightness and dryness.
• It is not recommended to combine it on the same night with strong exfoliants such as AHA/BHA acids or other retinol products, especially at the beginning of the routine.
• If mild dryness appears at first, you can use the sandwich method: a light moisturizer, then the serum, then moisturizer again, if the skin is sensitive.
• Use it on completely dry skin after cleansing, because applying retinol on damp skin may increase the possibility of tingling or dryness.
• Do not forget to use sunscreen daily in the morning, because using retinol may make the skin more sensitive to sunlight.
• To improve the appearance of acne marks, pores, and texture, the product requires consistency and patience, along with a gentle routine that does not stress the skin.
• If the skin is highly sensitive or you are using prescribed dermatological treatments, it is preferable to consult a specialist before introducing it into the routine.
