The INKEY List Blemish Clearing Moisturizer 2% NovoRetin

Ingredients

The INKEY List Blemish Clearing Moisturizer 2% NovoRetin is a high-potency overnight treatment designed for oily and acne-prone skin.
It is formulated with a "triple-threat" combination of active
ingredients to reduce breakouts, smooth texture, and even skin tone.Key Active IngredientsThe formula centers on four primary actives:

2% NovoRetin™:
A plant-based retinoid technology derived from mastic resin that boosts
naturally occurring retinoic acid to smooth uneven texture and refine
pores.
3% Sulfur: An FDA-recognized mineral that absorbs excess oil and visibly reduces the number of acne blemishes.
5% STAY-C®50:
A stable form of Vitamin C (Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate) that brightens
skin and helps even out the appearance of post-blemish marks.
0.2% Retinol: A low-dose retinoid that works alongside NovoRetin to exfoliate and resurface the skin's texture.

The best part? This formula is ideal for anyone who wants to ease retinol into their routine with a skin-soothing approach. What's more, a blend of deeply nourishing emollients and vitamins (think: squalane and panthenol) team up to unlock a hydrated, healthier-looking complexion. Apply it before bed and give beauty sleep a whole new meaning...

How to use

Patch test first. Use PM only. On cleansed skin apply a pea-sized amount to face and neck. Start using this product twice a week and increase to every night once your skin is used to it. Do not use any other retinol-based products in the same routine.
