Anti-Ageing & Wrinkles

Is Advanced Face Repair suitable for sensitive skin?

Updated 1. January 2024

Immediate Answer: Yes, Advanced Face Repair is designed for sensitive skin through the slow-release retinol technology that provides steady benefits without aggressive irritation.

The Science: Sensitive skin typically struggles with standard retinol (irritation, redness, barrier disruption). The Cyclosystem Complex in Advanced Face Repair prevents this by:

  • Slowing retinol conversion (less irritation)
  • Including niacinamide (barrier support, anti-inflammatory)
  • Including argan oil (nourishing, barrier-supporting)
  • Maintaining supportive hydration

Sensitive skin can tolerate this formulation where high-concentration retinol would cause problems.

How Nordic Formula Helps: For sensitive skin users:

  • Start with nightly application—your skin adapts better than with less frequent high-concentration use
  • Pair with Power Glow Serum (barrier support)
  • Ensure moisturiser is applied after (additional barrier support)

Many sensitive-skin clients report tolerance improves after 2-3 weeks.

Pro Tip: Slow-release retinol is ideal for sensitive skin. You get anti-ageing benefits without the adjustment period harsh retinol creates.
