If you have highly reactive skin or are pregnant\/nursing, consult a healthcare professional before use. For best outcomes, pair with daily SPF and a gentle complementary routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: How often should I use Cosmedica 2.5% Retinol Serum?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Start every other night to assess tolerance, then increase to nightly as tolerated.
