No. The AlphaRet molecule contains a retinoid, which is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Stop using it as soon as you find out you're pregnant. Clinisoothe Skin Purifier and Metacell Renewal B3 are safe alternatives for managing skin health during pregnancy.

Don't layer it with other retinoids or exfoliating acids in the same routine. Use it on its own at night. In the morning, a Niacinamide serum is a better pairing than Vitamin C for acne-prone skin on a retinoid routine: Niacinamide is calming and barrier-supportive without adding potential irritation. If you're using prescription tretinoin, use this on alternate evenings rather than the same night.

The formula is specifically engineered to minimise these side effects. The AlphaRet molecule delivers retinoid efficacy with significantly less irritation than standalone retinoids. Lactic Acid, Niacinamide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Bisabolol and the botanical calming complex actively buffer any potential dryness or sensitivity. In the clinical study (12 weeks of nightly use in patients with mild-to-moderate oily blemish-prone skin), improvements were demonstrated with little-to-no irritation.
