How to Use:
What is the recommended use of Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight with retinol?
Remember to #GLOWSLOW. Using Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight alongside retinol products should be done under the guidance of a skin care professional, as certain precautions should be taken. It is recommended to alternate nights and not apply both on the same evening.
- If a patient is using retinol, they should introduce Glycolic 10 slowly by limiting initial use to 1–2 nights a week and increasing use gradually to allow the skin to acclimate.
- If a patient is using Glycolic 10 Renew Overnight and wants to introduce retinol, discontinue use until skin is acclimated to retinol, and then apply 1–2 nights a week initially, increasing frequency slowly.
Both products may increase skin’s sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a broad spectrum sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using these products. If irritation occurs, decrease frequency of application of one or both products.

Key Ingredients:
- 10% Glycolic Free Acid Value: derived from sugar cane, this powerful fruit acid helps stimulate skin’s natural exfoliation process and minimizes the buildup of dead skin cells, resulting in improvement in the appearance of skin texture and tone.
- 2% Phytic Acid:Â naturally present in legumes and seeds, this potent ingredient provides dual-action exfoliation and skin brightening effects. It helps to inhibit the impact of skin aggressors that can cause dullness, promoting skin clarity and glow.
- 1% Soothing Complex:Â featuring a combination of natural oils and botanicals, including jojoba and sunflower seed, this wax forms a protective, breathable layer on skin to help lock in hydration and provide comfort.
