About This Product:
Acne and signs of aging? Meet the treatment designed to address both! Marini SkinSolutions Duality™ XC is an advanced acne treatment combining 10% benzoyl peroxide with 0.9% all-trans-retinol to target stubborn breakouts while improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Its innovative dual-chamber delivery system keeps the benzoyl peroxide and retinol formulas separate until application, allowing these powerful ingredients to work together.
Formulated with green tea extract, peptides, antioxidants and hydrating ingredients, Duality XC helps treat acne, improve uneven texture and promote smoother, clearer-looking skin.
This higher-strength version is best suited for experienced retinoid users who are already accustomed to stronger treatments. If you're new to retinol, consult your skincare professional before starting.
Active Ingredient: Benzoyl Peroxide 10%

How To Use:
Begin with thoroughly cleansed and dry skin.
Dispense one pump from each of the two chambers into your palm. Briefly mix the formulas together before applying.
Apply a thin, even layer over the entire acne-affected area. This is an all-over treatment, not a spot treatment. Avoid the eye area, lips and broken skin.
Begin with once-daily use, or less frequently if recommended by your skincare professional. The manufacturer permits gradually increasing application to two or three times daily as tolerated or directed by a physician. Because this is a high-strength retinol formula, follow your provider's individualized acclimation schedule.
If excessive dryness or peeling occurs, reduce use to once daily or every other day. Apply a compatible moisturizer as needed and use broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher during the day.
Pro Tip: More product doesn't mean faster results! Use a thin layer and introduce Duality XC gradually to help your skin adjust to its powerful ingredients.
Important: This product contains high-strength benzoyl peroxide and retinol, which can cause dryness, peeling and irritation. Avoid combining with additional retinoids, exfoliating acids or acne medications unless directed by your provider.
Retinoids should be avoided during pregnancy or when trying to conceive. Consult your healthcare professional before use while breastfeeding. Benzoyl peroxide may bleach clothing and towels. Discontinue use and seek medical advice if significant irritation occurs.
Storage: Keep at room temperature below 77°F (25°C), away from excessive heat and direct sunlight.

From Mila — Why She Loves It!:
I love a treatment that addresses more than one skin concern! Duality XC is a powerful option for clients dealing with stubborn adult acne while also wanting to improve fine lines and skin texture. What makes it unique is the combination of benzoyl peroxide and retinol in one dual-chamber system. This is definitely one for experienced retinoid users, so I always recommend introducing it carefully and keeping the rest of your routine gentle and hydrating!
