The hero of wrinkle removal, whose effectiveness is indisputable; plenty of studies speak for it!

FAQ
What skin problems can Elyn's Lab Retinol serum help with?
• Wrinkles
• Hyperpigmentation

What should I pay attention to when storing and using the serum?
As retinol is an active ingredient sensitive to light, heat and air, it is important to store it in a cool place, protected from heat and light. If this is not possible, we recommend that you store the product in a refrigerator. Because of its gel texture, shake the serum before use. Do not use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
What skin type can I use it on?
Due to its light, caring formula, it can be great for any skin type.
My skin is extra sensitive. Can I use it?
We have taken measures to reduce the chance of possible irritation with care-active ingredients such as glycerin, panthenol or allantoin, but sensitive skin always requires special care, so we recommend that you use this serum with due care.
From what age can it be used?
It is recommended for the prevention of, or against acne from the 20s, and it has its place in every skin care routine for people over 30!
How long will it take to see the effects?
It is important to know that, as with most active ingredients, you can only achieve cool results in the long term with retinol. While you can feel its firming effect from the first use, on existing wrinkles and pigment spots you can see a change after approximately 3-6 months with regular use.
Has the product been tested on animals?
In accordance with European legislation, we do not conduct animal experiments; this is a mandatory requirement for all brands manufactured in Europe. It's a fact that we wouldn't support animal testing regardless, so we don't make the brand's products available in countries where animal testing is mandatory.
