The Straight A Advanced Gentle Retinol Serum by Maya Chia combines encapsulated retinol with two botanical retinols: Bakuchiol and Moth Bean Extract. This formulation is designed to deliver the benefits of retinol without irritation, promoting smoother, plumper, and more radiant skin while reducing hyperpigmentation and supporting a healthy skin barrier.
Key Benefits
- Plumper, Smoother Skin: Enhances skin texture and reduces fine lines.
- Brightening: Diminishes the appearance of dark spots and evens skin tone.
- Healthy Skin Barrier: Supports and nourishes the skin’s natural barrier function.
Science and Technology
The serum uses encapsulated retinol for stable and effective delivery, along with botanical retinols Bakuchiol and Moth Bean Extract, to mimic the effects of traditional retinol without irritation. It also contains a complex that increases sirtuin activity, enhancing cellular communication and efficiency. Chia Seed and Buriti Oil provide additional moisture and nourishment.
In addition to carrier oils rich in naturally occurring Vitamin A, this potent yet gentle-acting formulation uses the best encapsulated retinol, shelf-stable Vitamin C, and Vitamin E to help brighten and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation.
We use a complex as part of the advanced formulation that has been demonstrated to raise sirtuin activity, which improves cellular communication and increases cell function.
Ultimately, we use botanicals rich in nutrients, like chia seeds and buriti oil, to help hydrate, nourish, and produce effects akin to those of a Retin-A product without the irritant side effects.
Ideal For
- Skin Types: Suitable for sensitive, maturing, dry, normal, combination, and oily skin.
- Skin Concerns: Ideal for those looking to address signs of aging, hyperpigmentation, and dullness.
How to Use
Use at night only. Apply a thin layer after cleansing and misting. Follow with a moisturizer as needed. Avoid use if pregnant or nursing. Always use sunscreen during the day, as retinoid products can increase skin sensitivity to the sun.
Size: 1 fl oz / 30 ml
