Skinbetter Science Signs of Aging Discovery Set

The Skinbetter Science Signs of Aging Discovery Set gathers four age-focused formulas: InterFuse Intensive Treatment LINES (5 ml, complimentary), EyeMax AlphaRet Overnight Cream (15 ml), Alto Advanced Defense and Repair Serum (15 ml) and AlphaRet Overnight Cream (15 ml). Together they cover expression lines, the eye area and the whole face.

InterFuse LINES is a targeted gel-cream with hyaluronic acid, amino acids and a peptide blend for the look of crow's feet, forehead and smile lines. EyeMax brings the AlphaRet retinoid to the delicate eye area in a cream made for it. Alto is a broad antioxidant serum for morning and evening defence, and AlphaRet Overnight Cream smooths the look of texture, fine lines and uneven tone while you sleep.

The set is a lovely way to explore a complete age-focused routine before choosing full sizes. With two retinoid formulas, introduce them gradually, use them in the evening and wear a daily sunscreen.

Why we love it

Most routines treat the face as one zone, yet lines around the eyes and on the forehead often need their own care. This set gives each area a dedicated step. It also shows how well Alto and AlphaRet work as a day and night pair. We like it for clients who want a thoughtful, complete approach to visible signs of aging.

Benefits

  • Softens the look of expression lines
  • Smooths the look of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes
  • Helps defend skin against daily environmental stress
  • Refines the look of texture and uneven tone overnight
  • Leaves skin looking smoother, fresher and more radiant

Best for

Fine lines, expression lines, tired-looking eyes

Introduce one AlphaRet formula first, then add the second a week later so you can see how your skin responds.

How to use

  1. Morning: after cleansing, apply InterFuse LINES to areas with expression lines.
  2. Apply Alto to the face, neck and décolleté.
  3. Follow with your moisturizer and finish with a daily sunscreen.
  4. Evening: after cleansing, apply InterFuse LINES to targeted areas.
  5. Pat a small amount of EyeMax around the eye area, staying on the orbital bone.
  6. Apply Alto, then a thin layer of AlphaRet on the face, avoiding the eye area.
  7. Follow with moisturizer if needed.
  8. If your skin is new to retinoids, start EyeMax and AlphaRet every second or third evening.
  9. Wear a daily sunscreen, since AlphaRet contains alpha hydroxy acids.
  10. Avoid direct contact with eyes.

Precautions

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician.

Avoid direct contact with eyes.
