A-Game 20 30ml

Good to know: This product is for experienced retinoid users that have used A-Game 10 and want to "step-up". If you are starting out, we recommend A-Game 5.

Retinal is the "big brother" molecule of the better known anti-aging superstar, retinol. While retinol needs two metabolic conversion steps to reach the active form, retinoic acid, retinal is the direct precursor only one conversion step away from the active form the skin cells understand. It is estimated that retinal can convert more than 10x more efficiently to retinoic acid than retinol, making retinal an outstandingly effective member of the retinoid family (vitamin A family).

Once converted, retinal helps the skin cells to produce more collagen and other structural elements, making the skin more youthful, firm and elastic. It speeds up the renewal process of the upper skin layers making it smoother and more even. A-Game is a smart-aging must-have, but it is also useful as an adjacent product for fading pigmentation, as well as helping acne-prone skin.

In terms of strength and knowledge, Geek & Gorgeous would compare their 0.2% retinal serum to the strength and knowledge of a 1.8% retinol product but with less irritation potential and possibly quicker results. 


Suitable for skin that has already used retinol products before or have used Geek & Gorgeous A-Game 5 and A-Game 10 and feel comfortable going up a level to maximum strength.

This product is more suitable for combination and oily skin and for those who want to boost their firmness and reduce pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles.

If you are an an experienced Retinoid user, this is a fantastic alternative for you as its hydrating and extremely effective.

Do not use if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Apply a pea sized amount to face in the PM. In your evening routine, apply liquid and gel-type products first (for example a toner, or our other serums). Follow with a moisturiser. Wear a sunscreen SPF 30 or higher in the morning.

If you are using A-Game 20 for the first time, phase in application starting at 2-3 times per week for two weeks. If well-tolerated, move up to every other evening in two weeks and finally - if your skin tolerates it - every night.

Do not use around the eye area.

Good to know: A-Game has a bright yellow color due to the retinal in it. Based on our experience, it dissipates on the skin and does not leave a yellow tint on surfaces.
