Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between this retinol and the CR Emulsion?

The CR Emulsion improves the skin faster and more effectively than the Retinol Cream alone. CR Emulsion contains several active ingredients on top of retinol that the AFORÉ Retinol Cream does not contain: Cannabidiol (CBD), Matrixyl, Argirilene, and Hyaluronic Acid. According to a six week study, these ingredients may act additively or synergistically with one another to benefit the skin more than any of the ingredients alone.


The Retinol Cream does not contain any CBD. 


What strength retinol is in this product?

What is the purpose of caffeine in this formula, and will I feel the effects of caffeine?

KEY INGREDIENTS

0.2% RETINOL:  Retinol is a heavily-studied form of vitamin A that is used to increase skin cell turnover, which can reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. 

GREEN TEA: Green tea is high in antioxidants called polyphenols. These polyphenols help to capture free radicals that can damage and prematurely age the skin. In this retinol formula, green tea also helps to reduce irritation that can be caused by retinol application. 

CAFFEINE: Caffeine naturally constricts blood vessels when applied topically, which helps to reduce puffiness and redness in the skin. 

VITAMIN C (ASCORBIC ACID): Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that stimulates collagen production, helps reduce free radical damage, and reduces the appearance of sun damage.

HOW TO USE

Once daily, in the evening, apply a pearl-sized amount to the face and gently smooth until absorbed.

WARNING: Do not use if nursing or pregnant.
