Retinol and coenzyme q10: work well together

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying the antioxidant first and the retinol second, because they boost each other's performance. Coenzyme Q10 helps shield the skin and keeps the retinol stable so it works better without breaking down. You can use standard strengths, but if your skin feels sensitive, give your skin more time between applications.
