How to use

Apply in the morning and/or evening on cleansed skin before any other product.

Follow these 3 tips to get the most out of your serum.

1. Cleanse Well

The active ingredients in skin serums will stick to dirt and dead skin, so for maximum absorption be sure to wash your face properly before applying.

2. Apply to Damp Skin

Moist skin is more permeable than dry skin, so apply serum to damp skin after cleansing for quick, deep absorption. Press serum into the skin with an open palm instead of fingertips to release active ingredients.

3. Less is More

Serums are super concentrated. Use just 1-2 pumps or a little smaller than a pea-size amount.

Features & Benefits

The normal retinol molecule needs to be converted to the active form (all-trans retinoic acid) before it can bind to the retinoid receptors to activate a biological response – all dermatological benefits.

Because of this conversion, studies indicate that 1% Retinol is about 20 times weaker than the active form of Retinoic acid. 1% Retinol, equivalent to about 0.05% Retinoic acid.

The HPR retinoid molecule needs no conversion to bind to Retinoid receptors as it’s already in the active form. It binds directly to the retinoid receptor without causing irritation.

The normal retinol molecule and the newly advanced HPR retinoid are 2 totally different molecules and therefore conversion calculation would be almost impossible. It is however save to say that 3% of HPR retinoid yields significantly more retinoid receptor binding activity than 1% retinol (the highest percentage retinol in non-prescription products).

Other active ingredients in the DermExcel Retinol formulation
This formulation also contains superior active ingredients, complementing the advanced HPR molecule.

Great product! I use it until the last squirt and then I remove the cap to get more of the goodness.
Such a wonderful introduction to the world of retinol!
Wish they could formulate the product to ‘travel’ more freely over the skin, as in, without the aid of water to help distribute it over the skin.

It has never made my skin flaky like some other retinol products (I use it every night) and it keeps my skin clear and smooth.

Very good product. The texture of my skin improved a lot in just a few weeks. It absorbs easily into your skin. It does not irritate my skin at all

GERDA (verified owner) – 04/03/2022

I started to use this retinol every third night, and it has not made my skin dry or peeling. I can see that my skin looks more even, and the black heads on my nose has improved
This is a potent yet gentle retinol and I expect that my skin will improve allot more with longer and more frequent use once my skin is more used to the retinol

First time I have used a Retinol serum and can see and feel the difference after just 2 weeks. Really impressed and love that it also contains Niacinamide.

Doreen (verified owner) – 26/05/2021

I start using this serum about 6 months ago. This is really a great product! When I started off with this product I only use it once a week, then twice a week. and I am using it now every night. The only thing I find with this. your skin needs to be damp otherwise the product is laying on the surface and not much is absorbed into the skin. But my skin never looked better!!! And I am 54!
