What Goes First Ferulic Or Retinol?

Ferulic acid serum and retinol are two extremely popular skincare ingredients, particularly for anti-aging purposes. When applying skincare products, there is generally a specific order to apply them for the best results. So, what goes first ferulic or retinol?

Ferulic acid and retinol can be part of the same routine. However, they should not be applied at the same time. This is because it can cause irritation to the skin. Ferulic acid serum is a great product for your morning skincare routine because it has free radical protective properties. The serum does not make the skin more sun sensitive.

Retinol is best applied at night. This is because retinol does make the skin sun sensitive and thus daytime application of retinol should be avoided unless in extremely small concentrations or instructed by a skin professional. Following a basic routine where the two products are not applied at the same time will allow patients to see the benefits of both.
