  • OIL CONTROL COMPLEX (OCC3)™

    OCC3™ is our proprietary complex at the heart of all LALAIS skincare. We discovered a unique combination of bakuchiol, a plant-based superstar with retinol-like benefits, willow herb, a potent botanical antioxidant, and sarcosine, a key amino acid, directly targets the enzyme that's the root cause of sebum production to help balance excess oil at the cellular level.

  • PURE NATURALLY-ENCAPSULATED RETINOL

    A stable form of Vitamin A that accelerates cell turnover with anti-aging, anti-acne, and oily skin benefits. Ours is naturally encapsulated (no silicones) for a slow, steady release that minimizes irritation.

    • Speeds cell renewal
    • Fades dark spots
    • Reduces and prevents breakouts
    • Boosts collagen production
  • GRANACTIVE RETINOID

    An ester of retinoic acid, known as Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), that does not require conversion in the skin. So, this fast-acting retinoid works immediately with minimal irritation.

    • Softens fine lines
    • Clears congestion
    • Evens discoloration
    • Stimulates collagen production
  • TETRAHEXYLDEXYL ASCORBATE (THD)

    A stable, oil-soluble ester of Vitamin C that effectively penetrates the skin to boost skin's radiance while providing strong anti-oxidant support.

    • Brightens and evens complexion
    • Promotes collagen production
    • Fights free-radicals
  • ANTI-AGING PEPTIDES

    Building blocks of proteins that support collagen and elastin production. Teprenone, Palmitoyl Tripeptide-5 and Tripeptide-1 are patented and proven to reduce the visible signs of aging.

    • Improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
    • Promotes firmer, younger looking skin
    • Boosts collagen production

HOW TO USE

CLEANSE • SERUM • MOISTURIZE

OILY SKIN  At night, massage 1-2 pumps on to clean, dry skin avoiding the eye area. Follow with ample moisturizer.

COMBINATION SKIN  At night, massage 1-2 pumps on to clean, dry skin avoiding the eye area. Follow with ample moisturizer particularly in areas that are normal/dry.

ALL  Start by using 2-3 nights per week, gradually increasing to every other night and then nightly. Apply broad spectrum sunscreen daily. Do not use other resurfacing/retinoid products on the same night. If sensitivity occurs, reduce frequency until skin adjusts. 

PRO TIP  If you are new to retinoids or have sensitive skin, utilize the "sandwich method" to help your skin acclimate. After cleansing, apply moisturizer. Once absorbed, apply the serum as directed, followed by another layer of moisturizer.

This is a must have!

Not only does the Retinol Renewal serum even out pigmentation and make my skin look more youthful, it does it without irritation - which has not always been my experience with other retinol products. Just ordered another bottle because I don't want to be without this product!

Dark Spots Faded!

I received samples of this when I purchased a few of the blotting compacts as Christmas gifts. I tried it to fade dark spots on my face and neck, and as an anti-aging serum and it delivers! My spots have been there for awhile and within a few weeks started to break up and fade. When it was cold, I used a little extra moisturizer and it was great and didn’t dry out my skin. A little drop goes a long way and is so silky smooth. Can’t recommend it enough. Purchasing the full size which will last a long time.

Don’t walk…run to get this product!

I have been really hesitant to use retinol because I have sensitive skin, but I tried this and am hooked! I had no irritation and I can already see a clear improvement in the evenness and texture of my skin. This product is better than 5 stars.

Love This Product!

Ever since incorporating the Retinol Renewal serum into my nighttime routine, I've been absolutely thrilled with the results! Not only do I see a noticeable improvement in my skin's texture and tone, but I also feel the difference – it's like my skin is glowing from within. I've been receiving compliments left and right about how good my skin looks, and while I may have good genes to thank, I truly believe that Lalais has taken my skin game up a notch. This serum has become an essential part of my skincare routine, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Such a fantastic product to have in my arsenal!

Finally a retinol I can use!

My skin barrier is sensitive to hard chemicals, and I was super nervous about implementing retinol, but this one is the one! I began introducing it into my routine slowly, and now it's a staple that has completely changed the game for my skin. I had no idea it could look this good and feel this supple!

Perfection 🌟

First off this is the only retinol product that doesn’t burn when I use it,. Since I began using it all the redness is off of my face and I have almost no breakouts even with my bad eating habits!! I use this in conjunction with the perfecting serum and my skin is glowing, it’s clear balanced and perfect. ❤️⭐️

HOW IS THE RETINOL RENEWAL DIFFERENT THAN THE PERFECTING SERUM?

THE RETINOL RENEWAL accelerates cell turnover and works deep within the skin to keep the cells unblemished and healthy as they rise to the surface. THE PERFECTING SERUM is an exfoliating treatment focused on improving oily skin concerns on the surface of the skin.

So, THE PERFECTING SERUM addresses the skin of today. THE RETINOL RENEWAL addresses the skin of tomorrow. When you use both serums, you can achieve even better results as your skin is nourished, treated, and corrected for improvement now and in the future.

CAN I USE THE RETINOL RENEWAL WITH THE PERFECTING SERUM?

While gentle, THE RETINOL RENEWAL is a potent formula. We do not recommend using it with any other exfoliating or retinoid product on the same night. Once your skin acclimates, you can slowly introduce THE PERFECTING SERUM on alternate nights for a comprehensive approach to caring for your oily or combination skin.

HOW IS THE RETINOL RENEWAL MADE FOR OILY AND COMBINATION SKIN?

THE RETINOL RENEWAL contains our exclusive Oil Control Complex (OCC3)™ that targets the enzyme in the skin that triggers excess oil production, 5-alpha reductase. Rather than mask the oil with mattifying ingredients, this serum addresses the root causes along with other actives, to correct and perfect at the cellular level. While these ingredients are beneficial to all skin, they are particularly important to balancing oily and combination skin.

CAN I USE THE RETINOL RENEWAL IF I DON'T HAVE OILY SKIN?

Yes. We recommend that you follow with an additional application of moisturizer.

HOW IS THE RETINOL RENEWAL MADE FOR ALL SKIN TONES?

We don't just say it, we prove it. In every stage of formula development, the impact and efficacy on all skin tones is considered. That includes ingredient selection, delivery technology, formula composition, and clinical and consumer testing on every single Fitzpatrick skin type I - VI (representing skin tones) to confirm that LALAIS products work with visible results for all of those with oily and combination skin. This takes tremendous time and effort, and is evidenced by the quality and results of THE RETINOL RENEWAL.
