Retinol summer...
Hey! I use this in my skincare routine, but I read that many say you shouldn't use retinol in the summer. I thought it was okay if you use it in the evening and have sunscreen during the day? Then I'm wondering if that's the case, I was thinking of using something else and am looking into GF solution or multi peptide + HA. Is that a good swap and which is smarter if you want anti-aging and a more even skin tone? Thanks for being here so we can ask. 💖1 product in post Retinol summer...165 views- The user's roll: Skin therapist at Lyko. The comment was made 1 weekHi Maria 😊 You can absolutely use retinoids year-round if your skin is used to it and you use UV protection – it’s not a problem in the summer, but it’s more about being extra careful with the sun so you especially don’t get sunburned (which triggers pigmentation and you have to pause all active products). And if you want to counteract pigmentation as you wish, the most important thing is to stay completely away from the sun - with a big sun hat 👒 If you still want to pause, peptides (Multi-Peptide) are good for elasticity and lines, but they don’t affect skin tone that much. GF Solution works more on skin quality and repair, but it’s also not so targeted towards pigment. If you want something that works both anti-aging and gives a more even skin tone, I would invest in, for example, a serum with vitamin C. They also have a really good serum specifically for pigmentation that contains Alpha arbutin. Good luck 🤍1 likes

Hyperpigmentation.
I wonder if this is good for lightening hyperpigmentation? Or if you can recommend another product that is still cheap. Thanks in advance! 🙂1 product in post Hyperpigmentation. - The post was made 1 years
Leave in?
Can you use a little of this as a leave-in? And is it okay to use it as a mask overnight?1 product in post Leave in?
