FAQS
Is Retinol Plus the same as the old Jan Marini Age Intervention Retinol Plus? +

Yes. Marini Skin Solutions (formerly Jan Marini Skin Research) has shortened the name to Retinol Plus as part of its rebrand. The brand states the science and formulas are unchanged, and the full ingredient list is under Other Ingredients so you can compare it against your existing tube. Retinol Plus MD, the stronger version, is now called Retinol Plus XC.

What does Retinol Plus do? +

It is an award-winning retinol treatment that visibly improves the look of texture, fine lines, wrinkles, pore size and luminosity. Concentrated all-trans-retinol drives surface renewal, three peptides support collagen and firmness, and chrysin helps brighten, while bisabolol, shea butter and hyaluronic acid keep skin comfortable. In an independent three-month study 97% of subjects saw improvement in overall skin quality.

Is Retinol Plus good for beginners? +

Yes. It is the entry point to the brand's retinoids and is formulated for minimal acclimation - 83% of study subjects found it easier to adjust to than a previous prescription retinoid. Start every other evening for the first one to two weeks, then build up as tolerated. Experienced users who want more strength can move to Retinol Plus XC.

What is the difference between Retinol Plus and Retinol Plus XC? +

Retinol Plus XC (previously Retinol Plus MD) is the higher-concentration version for skin already acclimated to strong retinoids. Retinol Plus is the gentler starting strength and the one Marini Skin Solutions recommends if you have any retinol sensitivity.

Can I use Retinol Plus every day? +

Once your skin has acclimated, yes - the brand directs increasing gradually to one or two applications daily as tolerated. If you notice dryness or redness, drop back a day and build up again more slowly.

Does Retinol Plus help with the look of sun-exposed skin and uneven tone? +

Yes. Retinol supports surface renewal, and chrysin and N-hydroxysuccinimide help brighten the appearance of skin, so with continued use skin looks more even, luminous and refined. Daily broad-spectrum SPF is essential to protect your results.

Can I use Retinol Plus with glycolic acid or vitamin C? +

Yes, with a little planning. Use C-ESTA Face Serum in the morning and Retinol Plus in the evening. If you also use Bioglycolic or Bioclear products, introduce Retinol Plus slowly and consider alternating evenings until your skin is comfortable with both.

How long does a 28g tube of Retinol Plus last? +

Applied sparingly, a 28g tube typically lasts around two to three months during the build-up phase and six to eight weeks once you are using it daily.

Is Retinol Plus safe to use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding? +

No. Retinol Plus contains retinol, a vitamin A derivative, and Marini Skin Solutions advises against use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Please check with your midwife or GP, and our team can suggest a retinol-free alternative for the duration.
