LET'S TALK SCIENCE
The problem with traditional retinols is that they can wreak havoc on your skin, disrupting the skin barrier, causing irritation. We solved for this by formulating with a microscopic delivery technology that releases a continuous, slow burst of retinol night long, and this is encapsulated in Squalane so that the retinol action is happening in deeper skin layers, and not on the surface thereby not irritating the barrier.!
PROPRIETARY CHIA BROTH +
Chia seed is a fantastic ingredient in skincare formulas because of its ability to soothe and improve hydration. Fermented Chia is a skin microbiome and barrier supporting prebiotic broth that powers our gentle cleanser.
MATCHA LEAF +
Matcha leaf is packed with antioxidants and has oil balancing properties. It has a characteristic smell which when interacts with citrus blooms into a unique refreshing scent in the cleanser. We serendipituously found this out while making prototypes and love it!
5 PEPTIDE COMPLEX +
Packed with five types of peptides in a synergistic blend in The Night Retinol Cream, this complex is designed to help skin spark the collagen generation, there by targeting firmness, wrinkles and roughness.
CAMELLIA OIL +
Camellia oil is rich in oleic acid and vitamins A, B, D and E, as well as nourishing omega 3, 6 and 9. It is soothing, and moisturizing while being incredibly lightweight. Camellia has a herbaceous scent that lends a unique scent when combined with sea buckthorn in The Face Retinol Serum. It's like a super skin drink with an earthy scent that we cannot get enough of!
CERAMIDE Np +
Ceramide Np is a lipid molecule that helps with skin's ability to retain moisture and supports skin barrier function.
SUPERCRITICAL SEA BUCKTHORN +
With more than 190 bioactive compounds, Sea buckthorn has exceptional nutrient profile which is why you see us formulating most of our products with this botanical. It's antioxidant-rich and was even used to treat burn victims and defend astronauts against sun damage.
ROSEHIP OIL +
Rosehip is antioxidant rich, and deeply moisturising.
PAPAIN ENZYME +
Papain is a brightening enzyme derived from papaya. In the Retinol System, it's function is to gently exfoliate to further boost retinol power!
From the Formulator's Desk
Two years ago:
"What's the dream?" we asked.
"A Kickass Retinol that works on skin discoloration, pigmentation, brightens the tone, fights signs of aging without any side effects........"
"Got it. All the retinol benefits sans irritation,"we knew we have a mountain to climb, a challenge set by our team and customers.
Retinols are skincare powerhouses, but many cause irritation, dryness, and discomfort, leaving users frustrated. We set out to change that because, simply put, retinol teaches skin cells to act younger.
2 years (or was that three?) of relentless research, poring over thousands of scientific papers and countless prototypes later, we are proud to present our Triple-Action Technology that powers our retinol formulas:
- Fast-Acting, Stable Retinyl: Works overnight to deliver rapid, visible results.
- Time-Release Technology: Controls the gradual release of retinol, providing ongoing skin benefits while minimizing irritation.
- Functional Boosters: Botanical actives (eg: Bakuchiol, Papaya Enzymes) enhance retinol's ability to boost cell turnover and exfoliation for amplified results.
The time-release technology incorporated into our regime ensures that the powerful retinol penetrates deeper, working while you rest to reduce fine lines, dark spots, and uneven texture—all without the typical irritation.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What makes your Retinol System different?
Our Microencapsulated Retinol System uses time-release technology for gradual retinol delivery, reducing irritation. The encapsulation with vegan squalane ensures deeper penetration, maximizing impact. Additionally, botanicals, peptides, and antioxidants in the formula further enhance skin benefits, giving your skin a holistic boost.
2. Which skin type can use this?
All skin types can benefit from this system. The gentle, microencapsulated retinol minimizes irritation, while ingredients like ceramides and squalane provide extra support for sensitive skin. The system is also dermatologically tested.
3. Why do you recommend a three-step system, and not a single serum?
Our three-step system maximizes retinol's impact while addressing common issues like dryness and barrier disruption.
- The Gentle Cleanser prepares your skin with exfoliating enzymes and soothing chia broth, ensuring a clean base for retinol.
- The Face Retinol (Serum), formulated as an anhydrous format with botanical oils, feels almost like water, penetrating deeper without greasy residue. It includes 7 Vitamin A-like boosters, like Bakuchiol, for enhanced benefits.
- The Night Retinol (Cream) offers hydration with peptides, ceramides, and nutrient-dense oils, providing deep nourishment.
This science-based routine is designed for optimal retinol performance and skin health.
4. Can beginners use this system? Should I do a patch test?
Absolutely! Both beginners and experienced users can use this. The gentle formula and time-release technology make it beginner-friendly. Always patch test before full application. Start with 1-2 drops of serum and a bit of moisturizer, allowing your skin to adapt over time. Increase usage gradually. If you notice irritation, stop and consult a physician.
5. What benefits can I expect? How long until I see results?
The Retinol Complex used in our system is designed to smooth your skin, reduce the appearance of discoloration and fine lines, and enhance your skin’s radiance. Typically, with retinols, one can expect to see results in 4 weeks, with significant changes in 8-12 weeks. You may notice improvements in skin texture and a nourished feeling within days. Individual results may vary.
6. Why Retinyl Linoleate instead of regular retinol?
7. Are your products vegan and cruelty-free?
Yes, 100% vegan and cruelty-free. We care about both your skin and the environment.
8. Can I use this with other actives?
Yes, but avoid using strong actives like Vitamin C or acids at the same time. Use the Retinol System at night and other actives in the morning.
9. Why do I need sunscreen when using retinol?
Retinol makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight, even when used at night. Protect your skin with a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily. We recommend our Sunnydip Hybrid Sunscreen SPF 50 for broad-spectrum coverage.
10. Can I use this on acne-prone skin?
Yes, retinol can promote clearer skin for acne-prone users. Start slowly as mentioned above. For acne-prone skin, here’s a recommended regime:
Morning: The Gentle Cleanser + Spot Shot (Niacinamide + Ceramide) Serum + Sunnydip SPF 50.
Night: The Retinol System - The Gentle Cleanser + The Face Retinol (Serum) + The Night Retinol (Cream).
11. My primary goal is to manage lines, wrinkles, and age gracefully. How do I use Retinol?
For healthy aging, here’s our recommended regime:
Morning: Ripe Balancing Cleanser + Ripe Super Cream + Sunnydip SPF 50.
Night: The Retinol System - The Gentle Cleanser + The Face Retinol (Serum) + The Night Retinol (Cream). Both cleansers can be used interchangeably.
12. Do you recommend this for pregnant or lactating mothers?
First of all, congratulations! We do not recommend retinol products during pregnancy or lactation. However, you can use The Gentle Cleanser from the Retinol System, along with our Spot Shot Niacinamide Serum and Ripe Super Cream for safe and effective skincare
