What it is:

A lightly creamy gel Retinoid, our mildest and most tolerable form of topical Vitamin A, this serum is blended with calming agents and brightening ingredients to help skin adapt and reveal firmer, plumper, more youthful, brighter, and clearer skin in 6-8 weeks.

How to use:

Consult your Spa Aeon Esthetician for a personalized application schedule to gradually acclimate your skin to topical Vitamin A (we start most sensitive-skinned individuals on 2 nights a week for the first 1-2 weeks, then every other night for 1-2 weeks, then graduate to nightly use)
Apply on cleansed, toned skin at night
Any water based serums such as peptides or brighteners should be applied first and allowed to absorb fully
Moisturize immediately after application
Pause use 4-5 days in advance of Microneedling or Resurfacing modalities and resume when instructed; consider pausing for the duration of hot weather travel

Use it with:

Consistent application of your favorite NECTIN Moisturizer to minimize Retinoid Irritation
Religious use of your favorite NECTIN SPF to avoid dangerous burns to treated skin

All Types, Sensitive, New to Retinoids
Thoughtfully blended with skin-calming Niacinamide and moisture-binding Lactic Acid, the primary mover in this formulation is Retinyl Propionate, a "goldilocks" topical Vitamin A molecule that provides clinical Vitamin A topical results in a gentle way. Retinyl Propionate can be formulated to absorb at different rates for different skin types, and in Achieve it gradually saturates skin cells for a smooth transition to bright firm results. To add to the beneficial buffet, Inosotol and two calming neuropeptides counteract the initial irritation some Retinoid users experience, while Kojic Acid suppresses the production of new excess pigment as old pigment sloughs away.

Some of our spa clients use Achieve indefinitely; many graduate to one of our stronger topical Vitamin A serums.
