When will I notice a difference?

Every skin responds on its own timeline. We recommend a full 4-6 weeks of daily use to see how ChagaControl works for you. The azelaic acid, zinc PCA, and botanicals build up gradually.

What if my skin is fussy?

ChagaControl is made to be gentle enough for daily use, but every face is different. If you have known ingredient sensitivities, review the full INCI or patch-test on your inner arm for 24 hours before applying to your face. If you're new to azelaic acid, start every other morning for 1-2 weeks before moving to daily use.

Which serum is right for me?

ChagaControl is built for oily, congested, or breakout-prone skin. If you're between formulas, the $19 Kit lets you try all five and pick your winner. Your $19 becomes credit toward the full-size.

Will I purge?

Some people experience a short adjustment period when starting a new ingredient. If you notice increased breakouts during the first 2-3 weeks, this typically settles as your skin acclimates. If anything still feels off after 3 weeks, stop using it and email us at info@chrysalisskinlab.com.

Can I use this with retinol?

Most people can use ChagaControl with retinol. Apply retinol at night and ChagaControl in the morning. If you're new to ingredients like these, alternate days instead of using both. If it feels like too much, use them on separate days until your skin adjusts.

Can I return it if I don't like it?

Yes. You get 30 days to try it. If ChagaControl doesn't work for your skin, reach out to us at info@chrysalisskinlab.com and we'll walk you through the process.

Do I need a moisturizer with this?

Yes. Put your usual daily moisturizer on top of ChagaControl. The serum is designed to sit under moisturizer, not replace it. In the morning, always follow with SPF 30+.

AM or PM?

AM. ChagaControl is a daytime serum. Apply in the morning after cleansing, followed by moisturizer and SPF 30+.
