## How it works

The Retinol 0.3 Niacin Renewing Serum is a serum, used after toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. The active it is built around is Retinol, named eighteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Niacinamide, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate and Adenosine, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Retinol stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the serum format rather than by the list alone. Anua sells this Retinol serum in Korea, and this is that version.

## How to use

1. Use the Retinol 0.3 Niacin Renewing Serum after toner and before moisturizer, in the evening.
2. Three or four drops covers the whole face. Press it in with flat palms instead of rubbing it around.
3. Toner first so the surface is damp, then this, then about a minute before your moisturizer goes over the top. Retinol is the entry that puts this step in the evening rather than the morning.
4. Start at two or three evenings a week and build up from there, because retinol is on this list. Do not use it in the same routine as another retinoid or a resurfacing acid.

## FAQ

### Where does this serum go in my routine?

After toner and before moisturizer, morning and evening. Anything thinner than a serum goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Retinol and not three changes at once.

### What else is on the list besides Retinol?

Niacinamide, Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate and Adenosine. The order they are printed in on this serum's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Retinol sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Allantoin, BHA and Tocopherol.
