WHY IT MATTERS FOR MELANIN-RICH SKIN:
Night Repair Serum is a retinol treatment designed for melanin-rich skin that wants the full anti-aging and resurfacing benefits of Vitamin A — without the inflammation, peeling, and PIH risk that comes from using retinol without proper support. Triple antioxidant protection, licorice anti-inflammatory, and a gradual use protocol make this one of the most skin-tone-conscious retinol serums available.
Overview
Skin cell turnover naturally peaks between 11pm and 4am. Without the right actives to support this process, that repair window goes to waste. For melanin-rich skin that’s managing pigmentation, texture, and early aging signs simultaneously, nighttime is the most important part of the ritual — and most people aren’t using it effectively.
Night Repair Serum delivers Retinol alongside a stabilized triple antioxidant system of Vitamin C (Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate), Vitamin E, and Ferulic Acid — supporting cell renewal while neutralizing the oxidative stress that makes retinol-driven cell turnover more inflammatory. The result: effective resurfacing with meaningfully reduced irritation risk for melanin-rich skin.
Routine: Evening (PM only)
Steps:
Frequency: 2–3 times per week; alternate nights. Build gradually — start with 2x/week for 2–3 weeks before increasing.
Pro Tip: Never use on the same night as other acids (Clear Up Serum, Clear Pro Pads). Always apply SPF the morning after use — retinol dramatically increases UV sensitivity. If you experience redness or flaking, reduce frequency and increase moisturizer.
Retinol (Vitamin A): Accelerates cell turnover, stimulates collagen, reduces fine lines and pore size, and improves skin tone. The gold standard anti-aging active.
Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (Stable Vitamin C): Oil-soluble, stable form of Vitamin C that penetrates deeply and neutralizes free radicals during cell renewal. Bright-and-firm combined action.
Ferulic Acid: Stabilizes Vitamin C + E and doubles their protective effectiveness. Provides independent antioxidant defense during retinol resurfacing.
Tocopherol (Vitamin E): Nourishes and supports barrier function, reducing retinol-induced dryness and irritation.
Glycyrrhetinic Acid (Licorice Root) Natural anti-inflammatory that calms redness during active resurfacing — a key safety feature for melanin-rich skin prone to PIH.
Squalane Supports barrier integrity and moisture retention throughout the retinol resurfacing process.
About the Formula
how it works
Accelerated Cell Turnover: Retinol (Vitamin A) promotes the shedding of dead skin cells and the generation of new ones — improving uneven tone, reducing fine lines, refining pores, and clearing breakouts over time.
Antioxidant Protection During Renewal: Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate (stable, oil-soluble Vitamin C) and Tocopherol (Vitamin E) neutralize free radicals generated during cell turnover — reducing the oxidative stress that can cause redness and irritation in sensitive skin.
Antioxidant Stabilization: Ferulic Acid stabilizes the Vitamin C + E complex and doubles their photoprotective effectiveness — ensuring the full antioxidant benefit is delivered overnight.
Collagen & Elasticity Support: Retinol stimulates fibroblast activity in the dermis, supporting collagen synthesis and improving skin firmness and elasticity with consistent use.
Anti-Inflammatory Calming: Glycyrrhetinic Acid (derived from Licorice Root) calms redness and reduces inflammation during the active resurfacing process — specifically beneficial for melanin-rich skin prone to PIH.
Lightweight, fast-absorbing serum with a silky, slightly emollient feel. Absorbs fully without residue. A slight warming sensation is normal and typically fades quickly.
Week 1–2: Mild skin adjustment possible (slight dryness or flaking); tone begins to look more refined
Week 3–4: Noticeable improvement in texture, pore appearance, and skin radiance
Long-term: Visibly reduced fine lines, more even tone, firmer skin, significantly improved overall complexion
