Augustinus Bader The Retinol Serum with TFC8®

Augustinus Bader’s lightweight, hydrating retinol serum with TFC8®, for the look of fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, blemishes and uneven tone. Evening use.

The one we suggest when clients want one elegant evening treatment for visible signs of aging, congestion and uneven tone: pure retinol with zinc PCA, niacinamide, marine ectoine and panthenol, in a comfortable texture without a heavy finish. Suitable for many skin types, including oily, blemish-prone and sensitive-looking skin when introduced gradually.

Benefits

The Retinol Serum is the one we suggest when clients want to target fine lines, uneven texture, enlarged pores, blemishes and visible pigmentation with one elegant evening treatment. Pure retinol meets TFC8®, zinc PCA, niacinamide, ectoine and panthenol in a lightweight, hydrating texture.

Because it is a retinol, we suggest introducing it slowly: 2 to 3 nights a week, increasing only if your skin feels comfortable. Follow with a nourishing moisturizer such as The Cream, The Rich Cream or The Overnight Restorative Cream, and wear sunscreen every day.

How to use

  1. Start with clean, dry skin: In the evening, cleanse and pat your skin dry.
  2. Smooth on The Retinol Serum: Sweep upward over the face, neck and décolleté, avoiding the eye area. Start 2 to 3 nights a week, then increase as tolerated.
  3. Follow with moisturizer: A nourishing cream helps keep skin comfortable.
  4. SPF every morning: Use sunscreen daily while using retinol.
