Q&A
Can this be used while breastfeeding?
Hello Brittany, Thank you for your inquiry. We recommend consulting with your doctor in case they have any specific recommendations for you. You can safely use most Dermalogica products during pregnancy and while breastfeeding, including the BioLumin-C Night Restore Serum. In general, it’s best to avoid products with higher levels of retinol intended for exfoliation. Most medical professionals now agree that low levels of salicylic acid are considered safe during pregnancy. We hope this helps provide clarity. Please feel free to contact us with any additional questions. We are here to help. Kindly, Sandra
Can this be used with the phyto nature firming serum? And if so what order should they be applied?
Hello Jessica, thank you for reaching out to Dermalogica! For best results, we recommend alternating between your serums, rather than mixing them. For instance, you can use the Phyto Nature Firming Serum during the day and the Biolumin C Night Restore Serum during the evening! Please let us know if you have any further questions as we are happy to help! Kind Regards, Beatriz.
Can this be used with tretinoin at night? Which first if so?
Hello Angila, Thank you for your question. Since you’re using tretinoin, and it is a strong ingredient that speeds up skin renewal, we recommend avoiding additional serums to prevent potential irritation or sensitivity. For the safest routine, we suggest checking with your doctor or dermatologist. If they approve, you may be able to alternate between tretinoin and the Biolumin-C Night Restore Serum on different nights. I hope this information helps. Please feel free to contact us with any additional questions or concerns, we are happy to help. Kindly, Sandra
