Can I use this cream with retinoids or strong acids in my evening routine?

Yes, this cream can be incorporated into an evening routine that includes active ingredients like retinoids or strong acids, but caution is advised. The formula contains niacinamide (vitamin B3), which is known to help support the skin barrier and improve texture, potentially offering some soothing benefits. However, because it also contains an oil complex and other conditioning agents, combining it with potent actives can increase the risk of irritation if your skin is sensitive. It is recommended to introduce combinations gradually. For example, you might alternate nights or apply the active ingredient first, allowing it to absorb before applying this cream as the final step. Always watch how your skin responds when using it for the first time, and if you experience excessive dryness or redness, reduce the frequency of use or separate the application times.
