Why We Love It at Le Petit Spa
Retinol 1.0 is reserved for clients who have already built tolerance with a lower-strength retinol and are ready for maximum results. It's a serious anti-aging tool that, used correctly, delivers visibly smoother, more even-toned skin. We always pair it with a thoughtful introduction plan and diligent daytime SPF.

How to Use
1. Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin in the evening.
2. Start with 1-2 times weekly, gradually increasing frequency as tolerated.
3. Avoid the eye area.
4. Always follow with high-protection, broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day.
5. Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
