How to use

Apply 1-2 pumps of A.I. Adaptive Retinoid Serum to clean, dry skin in the evening. Follow with a moisturizer. Start by using the product 2-3 times a week, gradually increasing to nightly use as tolerated. Always wear sunscreen during the day when using retinoids. Precautions: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. Discontinue use if signs of irritation and/or rash appear. If pregnant or nursing, please consult your doctor before use. Sunday Riley always recommends using sunscreen during the day.

Red does not mean poison. Preservatives that stop a product going off, UV filters and fragrance can land on yellow or red depending on their score.

Green does not mean right for you. Skin and allergies differ from person to person. Treat the color as a starting point.
