FAQ
Your burning Double Play questions answered by the chemists
Ingredients List & Actives Profiles
You shouldn’t need a degree in chemistry to take care of your skin. But, to be clear, someone needs the degree.
0.3% Encapsulated Retinol
The chemists searched high and low for just the right encapsulated retinol, because there are plenty of duds in the encapsulated retinol space. Double Play contains 0.3% active retinol that is tested to be stable inside our airless pump tube for its entire shelf life.
2% Haloxyl Complex
A timeless peptide blend that strategically targets eye area concerns. 2% haloxyl alone has been clinically tested to have a significant improvement in dark circles after 8 weeks of use.
2% Niacinamide
We all love our retinol but it's just one of those ingredients that could cause skin irritation. To help ease your skin into its retinoid journey, we've equipped the Double Play with 2% niacinamide (plus additional algae polysaccharides) to buff up your skin barrier.
