Can I use this with retinol, vitamin C, or exfoliating acids?

Yes. Daytime Defense works well as the protective step in an active skincare routine.

• Retinol: Yes. Use retinol in your evening routine and apply Daytime Defense every morning to protect your skin.
• Vitamin C: Yes. Apply vitamin C before Daytime Defense for an antioxidant-focused morning routine.
• Exfoliating acids (AHAs/BHAs): Yes. Sunscreen is especially important when using exfoliating products, as they can increase skin sensitivity to UV exposure.

Is it fragrance-free, cruelty-free, or vegan?

• Fragrance-free: No. Rhonda Allison products may contain naturally aromatic botanical ingredients and are not all fragrance-free.
• Cruelty-free: Yes. Rhonda Allison states that it does not test products on animals.
• Vegan: Not confirmed. Rhonda Allison does not clearly identify Daytime Defense as vegan, so it is best not to market it as vegan without direct confirmation from the manufacturer.
