If you are new to skincare you will experience the side effects and stop using retinol. All you need is a good skincare routine with the best creams in India. These face creams will soothe your skin, while retinol works the magic. Here’s how you can use complementary anti-ageing creams to aid retinol in making your skin plump and young.
The Sandwich Method Uses Retinol
Dermatologists recommend using active retinol either once or twice a week. However, it causes purging when directly applied to the skin. The Sandwich Method dilutes the direct application of active retinol so that it causes the most minor damage to the skin.

Wash away excess oil with the help of a good anti-ageing face wash that helps purify the skin like the Lotus Herbals YouthRx Firm & Bright Face Wash which has bakuchiol and vitamin C and cleanses your face and deeply unclogs pores.
Step 2– Apply a thin layer of face moisturizer for women. The moisturizer is a protective film on your skin. Wait for your skin to absorb it.
Step 3– Take 3-4 drops of Lotus Herbals Radiance Boost Ubtan Face Serum and gently massage your face. Let it completely soak in.
Step 4– Apply another layer of the face moisturizer. It should give intense hydration to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The Lotus Herbals YouthRx Youth Activating Moisturizer penetrates deep into your skin to lift, firm, and slow the signs of aging.
