FAQs

What skin types is Brightening Facial Wash best for?

Brightening Facial Wash is suitable for normal, combination, and oily skin types. If you’re dry or sensitive, start 2-3 times per week and increase slowly.

If you want a gentler alternative, you can rotate Brightening Facial Wash with a mild cleanser like Gentle Cleansing Lotion on alternating days.

How should I start using Brightening Facial Wash and Toning Pads together?

If you’re incorporating Brightening Facial Wash and Toning Pads for the first time, alternate their use:

  • Day 1: Gentle cleanser + Toning Pads
  • Day 2: Brightening Facial Wash
  • Repeat this pattern for 1–2 weeks to allow your skin to adjust

Once your skin tolerates both products well, you can use them on the same day; Brightening Facial Wash in the morning and Toning Pads in the evening, or up to twice daily for both.

Are these products considered safe if I’m pregnant or nursing?

Other than RetinAL Skin and Polishing Pads, all of our products are considered pregnancy/nursing-friendly. However, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider for any specific concerns.
