Q: I use the La roche retinol serum. Am I able to use these both together? When would be the best time to apply? And can this be used on the neck and chest?
A: Hello J! It's wonderful you're looking to optimize your skincare with our La Roche-Posay products. When combining potent actives like our Acne Treatment Salicylic Acid Face Serum and your Retinol Serum, it’s best to proceed thoughtfully. Both are highly effective, but using them together can sometimes increase skin sensitivity. We often recommend alternating these serums on different evenings to allow your skin to adapt to each ingredient gently. For instance, you could use the Salicylic Acid Serum one night and the Retinol Serum the next. If your skin tolerates it well, some individuals choose to use the Salicylic Acid Serum in the morning, always followed by a broad-spectrum SPF 30+, and the Retinol Serum in the evening. You can certainly extend these products to your neck and chest, but as this skin can be more delicate, we always suggest performing a patch test first. Listening to your skin's unique response is key, and for personalized guidance, a consultation with a dermatologist is always beneficial.
submitted byLa Roche-Posay Product Expert - 2 months agoBrand expertA: Hey J, Great question! We recommend to alternate between the two serums. Use the LRP Salicylic acid face serum in the AM, always follow up with a sunscreen all over. You can use the serum on the neck and chest! Use the LRP Retinol serum at night for best results.
