How To Use
Ingredients
The MARY & MAY Spicule Retinol PDRN Cream brings retinol into your evening routine. It works without the harshness many people expect from retinol. Nano-liposomal retinol visibly reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores. Marine micro-spicules create a gentle delivery path that carries each active deeper into the skin.
Alongside the retinol, PDRN works as a recovery booster, calming the skin and supporting its natural repair process. Ceramide, panthenol, sodium hyaluronate, and allantoin all support the barrier. They keep the skin feeling comfortable through every stage of adjustment.
This fragrance-free cream is dermatologically tested and suitable for sensitive skin. It suits all skin types, including those who have found retinol too harsh before. If you have fine lines, large pores, or rough texture, this cream addresses all three.
Use in the evening only. Retinol is photosensitive and should not be applied in the morning.
Step 1: Cleanse your face thoroughly and pat dry.
Step 2: Apply any toner, essence, or serum as usual.
Step 3: Take a pea-sized amount of the cream.
Step 4: Smooth it gently over your face in the direction of your skin.
Step 5: Avoid the eye area and lips.
Step 6: Press your palms lightly over your face to encourage absorption.
If you are new to retinol, start with 2 to 3 evenings per week. Allow 4 to 6 weeks before increasing frequency. Your skin builds tolerance gradually. For sensitive skin, try the sandwich method: apply a light moisturiser first, then the retinol cream on top. This softens the absorption rate and reduces any tingling.
Always apply SPF 30 or higher the following morning. This is non-negotiable when retinol is part of your routine.
Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Keep the lid sealed tightly. Each 15g tube typically lasts 4 to 6 weeks with daily evening use.
Pairs well with a gentle hydrating toner, a barrier-supporting serum, and a plain morning moisturiser with SPF. Keep the rest of your routine calm while your skin adjusts.
