    Need to Know

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is retinaldehyde and how is it different from retinol?
    Retinaldehyde is a form of vitamin A that sits one step closer to the active form than standard retinol, so it can work efficiently while remaining relatively gentle. In this complex it is paired with vitamins C and E to improve texture and soften the look of fine lines.
    How do I use Retivance?
    After cleansing and toning, apply up to three pumps to the face and massage in gently, feathering it onto the jawline and neck, then follow with moisturizer. It is typically used in the evening.
    Do I need sunscreen when using this?
    Yes, absolutely. Any vitamin A product can make skin more sensitive to the sun, so apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher every morning while using it. Daily sun protection also helps preserve your results.
    Can I use it if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
    Vitamin A derivatives are generally advised against during pregnancy and breastfeeding. We recommend pausing this product during that time and checking with your doctor about which ingredients are right for you.
    How often should I apply it when starting out?
    If you are new to vitamin A, begin a few nights a week and gradually build up as your skin adjusts. Introducing it slowly helps minimize dryness or flaking while your skin acclimates.

    This is gentle and a nice addition to my routine .

    I have tried every prescription and if you can afford it, Obaji is the best most effective product out there. The rejuvenating complex is strong but it doesn’t make ur whole face peel. I could tell a difference in 2 weeks. I used it every other day. My pores on my nose are smaller. The hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and my “mustache” have faded. I recommend this product as well as their introduction to the obaji 5 step system I think it is. Give ur face 3 months with that and ur whole face will ...
