Retinoids for Beginners — No Compromise on Results
Retinol is the most researched anti-aging ingredient in modern dermatology — and at the same time, the one that the skin takes the longest to learn. RiQ Retinol 0.2% was created precisely for this: to ensure that the first encounter with retinoids is gentle, thoughtful, and effective. The low, precisely selected concentration of 0.2% allows the skin to build tolerance step by step, rather than fighting against it from the very first evening.
This serum is for those who want real change — smoother, firmer, more even skin — but not at the cost of weeks of redness and peeling. DermaQuest's philosophy combines the courage of active retinol with the wisdom of gradual introduction.
The Power of Retinol, Tamed by Dosage
Retinol belongs to the vitamin A family — a group of ingredients that accelerate the skin's natural renewal and mobilize it to work on its own condition. The result of regular treatment is smoother, firmer skin with a noticeably even tone and reduced visibility of wrinkles.
The secret of RiQ 0.2% lies not in chasing the highest percentage, but in a smart dosage. A concentration of 0.2% is a level at which the skin can adapt — allowing even those who previously gave up on retinoids after the first wave of irritation to benefit. This is a retinol that wants to stay with you longer.
The Brand Philosophy in One Bottle

Evening Ritual — Step by Step
Apply RiQ Retinol 0.2% in the evening, on thoroughly cleansed and dry facial skin. Apply a small amount of serum, avoiding the eye and mouth areas. Due to the presence of retinoids, introduce the product gradually:
- First 2 weeks — every third evening
- Next 2 weeks — every other evening
- Then — every evening, if the skin tolerates the product well
During the retinoid treatment, use a high SPF cream in the morning and avoid intense sun exposure. Do not combine the serum with other strong actives (e.g., AHA/BHA acids) on the same evening to minimize the risk of irritation.
Your First Retinol — and a Ritual That Lasts
- For those starting their journey with retinoids
- For skin that needs firmness, smoothness, and an even tone
- For those looking for effective anti-aging with comfort of use
J'ADORE skincare tip: retinol loves the company of good hydration and protection. After the serum, reach for a lightweight moisturizer, and in the morning — definitely use SPF. This duo allows you to reap the full benefits of vitamin A.
Before You Start
Is this a good choice for a first retinol?
Yes — RiQ Retinol 0.2% belongs to the “Retinoids for Beginners” line. The low concentration of 0.2% and the gradual introduction protocol help the skin build tolerance and avoid excessive irritation.
Morning or evening?
In the evening, on cleansed and dry skin. During the day, be sure to use a high SPF cream and limit sun exposure.
Can I combine it with AHA/BHA acids?
It is not recommended to use RiQ Retinol 0.2% together with other strong actives (e.g., AHA/BHA acids) on the same evening — to minimize the risk of irritation. Separate them into different days or times.
When will I see results?
Retinoids work in the rhythm of regularity. With consistent use, the skin gradually becomes smoother, firmer, and more even in tone. Patience and consistency are the best allies of this treatment.
