What is the difference between retinal and retinol? Retinal (retinaldehyde) is one step closer to the active form of vitamin A than retinol, so it works faster at a lower strength with less irritation. It is the gentlest entry point in the RiQ range.
How often should I use it? Start two nights a week and add a night each week until you are using it nightly.
Can I use it during pregnancy? No. Vitamin A products are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
