The Skin Rocks Retinoids differ in which active retinoids they contain and in their concentrations. Retinoid 1 is our entry-level serum, Retinoid 2 is intermediate-strength, and Retinoid 3 is our strongest retinoid. Please refer to the individual product pages for details on ingredients.

Skin Rocks Retinoid 1 has been formulated for beginners or those with concerns around sensitivity. This includes those who have not used retinoids previously, or those who have used low-strength retinoids irregularly in the past. Retinoid 1 is suitable for those with sensitive skin, while Retinoids 2 and 3 are not.

Retinoid 2 is formulated for intermediate users, including those who have used low- or mid-strength retinoids without sensitivity and want to level up, and those who have previously used high-strength retinoids and want to maintain results.

People with advanced concerns may also start with Retinoid 2 for faster results, provided they are not sensitive and have completed a patch test.

Retinoid 3 is formulated for advanced users, including those who regularly use high-strength retinoids without sensitivity and wish to maintain results, and those using mid-strength retinoids without sensitivity who want to level up their results.

You should not use a retinoid if you have experienced previous vitamin A irritation. You should always patch test before using a new product.

The Antioxidant is your daily protector and is a preventative skincare product which everyone needs in their routine. The Hyperpigmentation Serum is your targeted treatment product, specifically for those with hyperpigmentation.

Whilst both serums contain different forms of vitamin C, they are not just vitamin C serums; the overall formulations are designed for different purposes and have been designed to complement each other.

Yes. The Hyperpigmentation Serum specifically targets areas of uneven pigmentation and pairs perfectly with our Retinoid Serums. If hyperpigmentation is a concern of yours, we recommend using both serums. We recommend applying The Hyperpigmentation Serum daily in the AM and/or PM, and the retinoids 3-4 times a week in the PM. If using both serums in the PM, apply The Hyperpigmentation Serum first, followed by Retinoid 1 or 2.

Yes. The Support Oil has been developed to be suitable for all skin types, but it is particularly helpful for people with compromised or sensitised skin, or those who are prone to sensitivity. The formula is packed with skin-identical lipids to help replenish compromised skin barriers, alongside calming and soothing ingredients. However, as always, we recommend carrying out a patch test prior to introducing any new products to your routine.

The Antioxidant should be used at the serum stage of your routine. The primary function of an antioxidant is to help protect the skin from environmental aggressors, placing it firmly in the Protect category.
