The Straight A Advanced Gentle Retinol Serum

This Product Is: a nightly retinol facial treatment serum

Good For: all skin types, especially mature skin and blemish-prone skin

Why We Love It: Maya Chia The Straight A Advanced Gentle Retinol Treatment is made from potent, high quality vitamins C and E which work to brighten skin and help decrease the appearance of hyperpigmentation. Encapsulated retinol, a safe derivative of vitamin A, is combined with botanical retinols, bakuchiol and moth bean extract, to help improve the appearance of fine lines, promoting plump and radiant skin. Finally, nutrient-dense botanicals including chia seed and buriti oil work to hydrate and nourish skin, while promoting soothing benefits.

The Straight A contains a complex expressly targeted to increase Sirtuin activity, which are proteins that regulate key biological pathways in our cells.   

Apply a thin layer of the Advanced Gentle Retinol Treatment after cleansing and misting. Use only at night. May be used every night.  Follow with an application of moisturizer as needed, such as the Super Couple Face OIl, Supercritical Face Oil or The Super Blend Moisture Concentrate.  

Please use sunscreen daily, as retinoid products do have exfoliating properties.

Radical Fragrance Transparency. This means the fragrance ingredients are fully disclosed to you (not hidden behind the word "fragrance", which is the norm). All ingredients are included in the section above.

This fragrance is comprised of (Click on a fragrance category for more info):

Essential Oils

Essential Oils

Authentic essential oils are physically extracted by steam or expression (cold pressing) of the skin of the fruit. Essential oils have not been chemically altered (via reaction, solvent extraction) from their natural state.

Certified Organic Fragrance

Certified Organic Fragrance

A blend of essential oils (see above) derived from plants that are grown in accordance with the USDA National Organic Program.

Natural Fragrance

Natural Fragrance

Natural fragrances are mixtures of aromatic raw materials. As opposed to a whole essential oil found in a plant, these chemicals are physically isolated from natural compounds, then blended together to create a scent. If only natural isolates are used, companies can declare the scent “natural.”

Naturally-Derived Fragrance

Naturally-Derived Fragrance

Fragrance ingredients that have been extracted using solvents (alcohol, petrochemicals, vegetable oils), or extracted by fermentation, or ingredients which may have a natural component but have been significantly processed.

Synthetic Fragrance

Unfragranced/Unscented

Ingredients which are new molecules, made in a laboratory. The majority of synthetic constituent ingredients are from petroleum byproducts. Synthetic “nature-identical” ingredients fall into this category as well. Credo allows synthetic fragrances as long as there are no Dirty List components.

What's Behind "Fragrance"?

US law does not require that companies be transparent about the ingredients in fragrance/parfum. Credo believes in your right-to-know. We require all brands to categorize the fragrance in each product (see chart above), and encourage brands to fully disclose all scent ingredients.

All products are cruelty-free and formulated without ingredients on The Dirty List™️. At Credo, "clean" goes even deeper. Learn more.
