How it Feels:
The cream is thick and white.
When applied on the skin it feels like Vaseline and can be stingy on sensitive skin.
How to Use:
DO NOT USE IF PREGNANT
Make sure you face is totally dry as Vitamin A will react with water and cause irritation.
Use a very small amount at night. Start every other night for the first 8 days then every night.
Do not apply too close to the eyes as the cream will naturally migrate. Try not to mix it with moisturizer or put any moisturizer on top.
Do not use during the day as Vitamin A is sun-sensitive.
It is normal to feel a tingly sensation for 15 minutes after applying the cream.
As A313 helps produce healthy new skin cells, after 1 month your skin will feel baby soft.
