Paula's Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment (1 fl. oz.)

Paulas Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment is a potent and uniquely formulated retinol formula that hydrates and delivers anti-aging benefits to the skin. Its creamy lotion texture rests lightly on the skin while the retinol quickly penetrates into the top layer to smooth and firm skin, boost cell regeneration, stimulate collagen production, refine pore size and even out skin tone. Unlike other retinol-heavy products that may irritate the skin, this cream offers the nourishing and anti-irritating vitamin C, licorice and oat extract to leave your skin smooth and well-soothed.

Key Ingredients:

• Retinol: helps stimulate cell production
• Vitamin C: reduces the appearance of brown spots, inflammation and irritation
• Licorice Extract: relieves irritated skin
• Oat Extract: helps soothe and heal skin

Key Benefits:

• Advanced hydrating complex absorbs quickly
• Diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Lightweight lotion texture
• Offers a powerful 1% retinol concentration

Limit initial use to three times per week; gradually increase frequency to every other night, then finally each evening as tolerated. Apply a pea-sized amount after cleansing and/or toning. Carefully avoid the lips, eyes and corners of the eyes. Can be used on the perimeter of the orbital bone if desired. Do not apply to eyelids. To minimize irritation, try combining with 2-3 drops of Resist Moisture Renewal Oil Booster.
May be applied at the same time as your AHA or BHA exfoliant, but pay attention to how your skin responds. If you notice signs of sensitivity, apply your AHA or BHA exfoliant in the morning and this treatment at night or reduce frequency of application of Clinical 1% Retinol Treatment. For daytime, follow with a broad-spectrum product rated SPF 15 or greater.

Once open, most effective when used within 12 months.
