Core Benefits of FUSION A

Product Overview

How To Use

If you are brand new to retinoids, always choose the mildest percentage. That would be our 0.15%.

If you are a long-time retinoid user, the 0.25% would be a good option for you.

If you are coming directly from the milder forms of tretinoin (0.025 0.030) then our 0.35 is a nice choice.

If you are a long-time high strength retinA™ user, then see our Luminosity .55% here as your OTC option.

Unless you have experience using retinoids during the day, this is primarily used at night before bed. In addition to when you should put it on please take a gradual approach with Fusion A. Use the product 1-3x per week and add on more days as your skin acclimates. Alternatively, for very sensitive skin types, you may dilute Fusion A by mixing it with another serum or cream and then apply both together.

About

Retinaldehyde (Retinal) – Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (Granactive Retinoid) – All Trans Retinol
If there was an ingredient that was worthy enough to be deemed “magical” … Vitamin A would be it! Far from fluff, and backed by decades of studies, retinoids are one of the most highly regarded ingredients recommended and used by dermatologists for a reason. And here is why.

  • Prevent premature aging.
  • Stimulate the growth of new skin cells.
  • Increase elasticity.
  • Lessen or remove hyperpigmentation/melasma.
  • Unclog pores. Reduce sebum production.
  • Minimizing pores.
  • Antioxidant effects.
  • Improve hydration and plumping.

The natural rate of our skin’s cell turnover is about 30 days when we are in our youth. As we reach our 40's, this can stretch out substantially. Retinoids stimulate cell proliferation (turning over the old cells quickly to replace with new) and can even help to thicken skin that has become thinner over the years. To give your skin that tight, smooth, and fresh look… we need to speed that up again.
When you add a retinoid into your evening regimen, you can accelerate that rate from a couple of months to less than two weeks[6]!

Retinoids all work by binding to and activating the skin’s retinoid receptors. In the process of doing this, they alter the skin’s DNA and enhance the gene expression. When these retinoid receptors are “turned on” a cascade of mechanisms that benefit the skin begin. This can result in skin that is more exfoliated, pores more refined, clearer, wrinkles minimized, and acne controlled.

If you are brand new to retinoids, always choose the mildest percentage. That would be our 0.15%.

If you are a long-time retinoid user, the 0.25% would be a good option for you.

If you are coming directly from the milder forms of tretinoin (0.025 0.030) then our 0.35 is a nice choice.

If you are a long-time high strength retinA™ user, then see our Luminosity .55% here as your OTC option.

Is your mind spinning after comparing all the different retinol products out there?

All those different percentages can be confusing. How can one company have 1%, 2%, or even 10%… when another has only 0.1 or 0.2%?

There is one disturbing reason…..

The percentage on most bottles are wrong…

Many brands claim retinol percentages that are not the 
”Finished Percentage”, but the percentage of an “ingredient mixture” that contains the retinol.

For example, we get our retinol from a mixture called 15D. That patented blend of ingredients has only 15% retinol.

Once added to our final product mixture we display the final (and actual) active ingredient percentage. While many in the industry do not. They label their products based on the pre-mixed percentage. That's why so many products are misleading.

For Example:

  • 1% of 15D = 0.15% formula.
  • 2% of 15D = 0.35% formula.

We could say we have a 2% serum… but do we? No, it is a 0.35%.

Can other companies be unscrupulous like that? They can, and we know that you will feel more confident with us knowing that we only work with the Finished Percentage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Oh yes! This is not only a molecular version (extra small nano particles of the active) of retinaldehyde, but it is in a base with special ingredients to PUSH it deeper into your skin.

Understandably, if your body needs to convert retinol and retinaldehyde into retinoic acid, you are going to lose some of its potency. This is where the molecular structure becomes so valuable. Since our retinol and retinaldehyde are micronized, they penetrate very deeply into the skin and will retain a much higher value when converted.

“There are a few myths about retinoids that may erroneously shy potential users away, including the idea that retinol products will thin out skin over time,” Dr. Kraffert says. “This is simply not true; retinods have the tendency to slightly thicken skin.” The ingredient does this by boosting your natural production of collagen, leading to fewer fine lines and wrinkles and plumper, bouncier skin.

Yes you can! There was one study done in the 90's that thought retinol performed best on your skin's normal pH level, but it has since been found that it works just as well at low pH levels. So you have no worries in combining this with your favorites on our site.

Just make sure to use vitamin c in the morning and retinoids at night, since they can irritate if used at the same time.

While we really like for you to use your FusionA as your evening treatment, that does not mean that you can't use it during the day if that works better for you or the products in your regimen. The key here is that you must use a good reflecting SPF of 50 to do so. Ingredients like Titanium Dioxide or Zinc will reflect the sun from your skin – protecting your retinol.

Everyone. If you are looking for smooth, unblemished skin with tight pores and a fresh, clear complexion…. Fusion A is where you should start. It is especially valuable for weathered skin types showing excessive signs of aging. It will help to dramatically smooth and freshen the skin's appearance quickly and is an extremely important part of an acne treatment.

Follow your skin's lead. Our skin is oilier in the summertime and can take more harsh products. If you find that your skin is getting TOO dry in the winter months, cut back with your usage and try every other day or every 3rd day as an option. Definitely keep it in your evening regimen, but take a step back until your skin is more comfortable.

Due to its ability to aid in shedding the follicle walls, the skin can long-term, temporarily tighten and minimize the look of pores.

Topical retinoids are a helpful tool in managing psoriasis. This is because of its ability to control the way that new skin cells are formed. Retinol communicates with the cells that are overproducing and “tells” them to behave in a healthier manner. Apply retinol one time per day onto clean skin. Watch for dryness or irritation and cut back or add other hydration to combat. Our Vitamin A Dream Peel would be an excellent monthly option for you as well.

DMI is a solvent that aids in Dermal Penetration (carrying ingredients across the skin’s membrane). It helps active ingredients effectively reach the disorder’s source. You will find this in our Fusion A to aid in the granactive retinoid penetration by the ingredient manufacturer. It is GRAS* Generally Regarded as Safe and will also aid in each of the retinoids penetration.
