What is the difference between the two pieces?

The 30ml retinol serum is the regular step; the 15ml retinal booster is one conversion closer to the form skin uses, so it shows sooner.

How often should I use it?

Twice a week for the first fortnight, then build up. At night only, with moisturiser after and sunscreen in the morning.

Is a little flaking normal?

At the start, yes. Painful peeling or redness that does not settle is not — cut back the nights rather than pushing through.

Overview

A two-piece vitamin A set: a 0.1% retinol serum with a nine-peptide complex for the whole face, and a 0.1% retinal booster with Matrixyl® 3000 for the areas that need more — fine lines and pores.

Details & specifications

celimax's Vita-A set puts two forms of vitamin A in one routine. The serum is for the whole face; the booster is for the places that need more. The idea is to start broad and then concentrate, rather than putting the strongest thing everywhere.

Retinal Shot Tightening Booster — 15ml

Matrixyl® 3000 at 3%, a patented peptide from the French house Sederma
Panthenol 1%
A-Shot™ delivery at 20,250, in particles far finer than a pore opening

How to use them

At night, after cleansing: the serum over the whole face, then the booster on lines and pores
Moisturiser over both
Sunscreen every morning — not optional with vitamin A, or the work is undone and pigment gets worse
New to retinoids: every other night for the first two weeks, then nightly if your skin is comfortable
A mild tingle is normal. Stinging or flaking means less often.
Patch test first if your skin is sensitive
Keep both away from heat and light; vitamin A degrades in either
