Andalou Naturals Resveratrol Q10 Night Repair Cream - 1.7 Oz

A: Hello AandT, Thank you for reaching out. Unfortunately, we cannot comment on the use of retinol with our products, so we recommend consulting with your dermatologist. Alternatively, you might be interested in our Age Defying Rejuvenating Plant-Based Retinol Alternative Range with Bakuchiol. What is Bakuchiol? (pronounced bah-KOO-chee-all) Bakuchiol is a natural alternative to retinol derived from the Psoralea Corylifolia plant, also known as Babchi, which is native to India, where it has long been used in Ayurvedic practices. Retinol is a long-trusted skin care ingredient that has been clinically shown to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin firmness and improve the skin tone and texture. Bakuchiol is clinically proven to offer the same anti-aging results as retinol without the well-known side effects. Synthetic retinol is known to cause irritation, redness, peeling and sun sensitivity. Can I use Bakuchiol in the daytime? Traditional retinol products are advised for night use only. Bakuchiol is safe to use in the day, the night or both. We always advise using a daily SPF to protect your skin from premature aging and sun damage.

A: Hello KRF, Our sincerest apologies for the delay in our response. There was a technical issue but it's been resolved and we're happy to answer your question. Our products that come in jars are 100% BPA-free PET plastic. All Andalou bottles, jars, and tubes are widely recyclable and 100% BPA-free. Packaging is designed to be beautiful, but also to minimize the shipping materials necessary to protect our products during processing and handling. We decided to utilize widely recyclable PET plastic jars and the resin we use does not contain BPA, phthalates, dioxins, lead, cadmium or endocrine disruptors. We encourage our customers to follow local recycling guidelines and packaging when empty. Additionally, the sealing disc is recyclable, but the outer lid cannot be recycled unfortunately.
