Your Whole Routine. Before Bed.
You don't need a morning routine and a nighttime routine. You need tonight. Two products, one session before bed — a cleanser that actually preps your skin, and a retinol that works the overnight shift. That's the whole thing. Your morning stays exactly the way it is.
How the Nighttime Sequence Works
This isn't two products tossed into a box for a discount. It's a functional sequence — Step 1 enables Step 2. The cleanser removes your day's sunscreen, oil, and whatever the world left on your face. That matters, because clean skin absorbs retinol better than skin covered in a day's worth of grime. The retinol then goes to work during the overnight hours, when your skin's natural cell turnover kicks into a higher gear. Prep, then power. Cause, then effect.
The Cleanser — Functional Prep
Oil-free gel with watermelon, apple, and lentil extracts. Takes 30 seconds. Removes sunscreen, makeup, and daily buildup without stripping your skin or leaving it tight. Witch hazel and licorice root calm things down. Your skin comes out clean and comfortable. A proper canvas for what comes next. Not decoration. Prep.
The Retinol — Overnight Power
Retinol is the single most-recommended ingredient by dermatologists for fine lines and texture. Not a trend — decades of research. This formula pairs it with ceramides, milk lipids, peptides, and shea butter to support your moisture barrier while the retinol works. You put it on clean skin. You go to sleep. You wake up to skin that's actually changing. Start every other night and increase as your skin adjusts.
Who This Is For
People who want retinol but don't want to build an entire AM-and-PM system around it. You already have a daytime moisturizer or sunscreen that works fine. You don't need another morning product. You need the nighttime action step, the part that actually moves the needle — on properly prepped skin. This is the most concentrated option in the Dead Simple line. Two products, one window, maximum impact per minute spent.
Add More Later. Or Don't. Your Call.
Want a daytime moisturizer down the road? The Dead Simple Moisturizer slots right in. Want the full 3-Step System? That exists too. Or just keep doing this — cleanser and retinol, every night, before bed. You're already doing the one thing that matters most. Everything else is optional. This is not.
