3 Unique Ways to Use Pure Retinol Cream
Retinol plays a critical role in your anti-aging. It’s a topical vitamin A derivative that boosts collagen production, speeds cell turnover and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Our Pure Retinol Cream exfoliates dead skin cells to impart a healthy glow and speeds cell turnover. It also smooths skin while improving skin tone and hyperpigmentation.
Retinol is one of the most effective products for promoting cell communication. It functions as an antioxidant to help prevent free radical damage while healing and preventing acne. New research points to its ability to increase elastin production as well, making it the perfect complement to Facercise, our proprietary system of facial exercises.
Many people know to apply retinol to their faces every night before bedtime, but few realize that it can improve the skin all over the body as well. Here are three other ways that we recommend using Pure Retinol Cream.
1. On Your Hands
Retinol is very effective at reducing unsightly age spots and hyperpigmentation on hands. It smooths out wrinkles and deep creases, while adding volume by boosting collagen production. This is important since volume loss is one of the most common signs of aging on hands. The results from regular application of are more natural looking than those achieved by fillers and other hand rejuvenation procedures.
The hands are one of the first places to show visible aging because the skin is thin and frequently exposed to sun and environmental stress. Retinol works at a cellular level to accelerate skin turnover, helping fade age spots, sun damage, and uneven pigmentation that tend to accumulate over time. With consistent use, it also stimulates collagen production, which softs the look of fine lines and deeper creases while subtly improving skin density.
This collagen support is especially valuable for hands, where volume loss can make veins and tendons more prominent. By encouraging smoother, thicker-looking skin, Pure Retinol Cream helps restore a more youthful, even-toned appearance without the abrupt or overfilled look that can sometimes occur with cosmetic procedures. Over time, hands appear smoother, brighter, and naturally rejuvenated.
Pro tip: Apply at night and follow with a rich moisturizer to minimize dryness. Daily sunscreen on hands is essential to protect results.
2. On Your Arms and Legs
Areas like the upper arms and thighs are prone to thinning skin and reduced elasticity, which can create a crepey texture. Retinol helps renew the skin’s surface while strengthening its underlying structure. As old, damaged cells shed more efficiently, the skin looks smoother and more even in tone. Meanwhile, increased collagen production supports firmness and resilience.
On the legs, consistent use can improve the appearance of sagging skin by enhancing elasticity and texture. Retinol can also help refine uneven, dimpled areas by promoting smoother skin structure over time. While it’s not a quick fix, regular application can noticeably improve tone, texture, and overall skin quality—especially when paired with consistent hydration and gentle exfoliation.
Pro tip: Start 2–3 times per week on body areas to allow skin to adjust, then gradually increase frequency.
3. On Your Stomach
The abdominal area often experiences stretching from weight changes, pregnancy, or natural aging, which can leave skin looking loose or uneven. Retinol supports skin renewal and collagen formation, helping the stomach appear firmer and more resilient. Over time, it can smooth the look of rough or bumpy texture and promote improved elasticity.
When combined with supportive practices like dry brushing with our Sisal louffas, which encourages circulation and gentle exfoliation, results can become more noticeable. Pairing topical care with structured body treatments such as the No Lipo Lipo body sculpting regimen may further enhance the appearance of smoother, tighter skin by supporting tone and texture improvements from multiple angles.
Pro tip: Apply Pure Retinol Cream to completely dry skin to reduce irritation, and follow with a nourishing body cream to maintain barrier health.

Omega-3 fatty acids are a game changer for beauty, anti-aging and overall health. We’ve always been an advocate of polyunsaturated fatty acids for the hydration they provide in addition to a host of other benefits. A diet with a good balance of antioxidants and healthy fats is the perfect complement to a consistent Facercise regimen.
