Are you new to using active skincare? If yes, these are three important things you must know.

1. Before jumping in and using any actives, it’s so important to repair your skins barrier and prep your skin for stronger ingredients. The Saint Louve Vitamin B3 B5 Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Serum is best used for 4-6 weeks prior to any other serum. This will make sure skins sensitivities are reduced and your skins barrier is repaired and ready for stronger ingredients.

2. Vitamin C is not suited for very sensitive skin types and acne prone skin. The reason why, most Vitamin C serums require a low pH level which can cause irritation to sensitive skin types and acne prone skin.

3. Retinol and AHA or BHA Acids should not be used in the same night, you should always use on alternate nights. Over exfoliating the skin with AHAs BHAs and Retinol will disrupt your skins barrier. This is where we recommend following a Skin Cycling routine.
