Dosage
If you have acclimated your skin according to the instructions, i.e., using it 2 days a week now. Is that like the max they recommend, and what about you? Thinking because it says "up to" two days/week. So you can't increase it to every day? I thought that was the goal with retinol, to acclimate the skin so that you can use it on a daily basis?Translated from swedish

But when it comes to Retinal 0.2% Emulsion, it’s a bit different. This is a retinal, not retinol, and retinal is a stronger form of vitamin A. That means it is much more potent than regular retinol products, even at low concentrations. Therefore, it is recommended to stick to a maximum of 2 times a week for this product 💛 If you have very sensitive skin, you can increase the usage a bit, but keep in mind that retinol makes you very sensitive and should not be used in the summer 🥰 Take care! ☀️
