Or would it be too much for my skin to handle? I have a daytime moisturizer with AHA and SPF in it so I would be putting it over the IS Clinical Serums. I was also thinking of getting a retinoid to use as well but not sure I need it with the IS Clinical serums.

The Active serum is VERY active. I do not use any thing with the Active or Proheal, which contains retinol.
I don't have the ingredient list, but several years ago I was advised not use any retinols or AHA's with these products. If you are brave enough to take on THE THREAD that Mabsy so kindly provided to you, I am sure you can find some better answers. Good luck and happy reading.

The Active serum is an AHA product, actually AHA/BHA. It already contains glycolic acid, lactic acid, and salicylic acid. So, I would not add another AHA product with the Active serum.

For a retinoid product, you could alternate that 1 night, with the Active the other night if you feel the need.
