Formulated for skin tolerant to retinol treatments, it stimulates collagen production and enhances faster cell renewal to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Algae extract ensures skin is soft, hydrated and protected against free-radical damage.
Key Ingredients:
- Retinol: smooths and refines skin's texture and enhances radiance
- PhytoShield™ Complex: an antioxidant complex, enhances skin texture and minimizes irritation
Key Benefits:
- Enhances skin tone, texture, and resiliency
- Diminishes appearance of fine lines and coarse wrinkles
- Appropriate for all skin types pre-conditioned by using Retinol Complex 0.25 or another retinoid product
Apply a single pump to face in the evening. If you have never used a retinol product before, begin by limiting use to twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then advancing to each evening or as tolerated. Mild redness, peeling and irritation is expected when using this product. Use daily sun protection with SPF 20 or higher during use of this product. Avoid getting in eyes.

Good product
Good product. Not life changing but also does what I expect a retinol to do.

Don’t hesitate to buy this
My dermatologist told me to use this to keep my skin pores clear and control acne. I had deeply clogged pores and bumps all over my face and jawline. He was right. I started using retinol with the 0.25 until I finished the bottle then graduated to 0.5. This 0.5 works well for my needs. I apply only at night, every other day. Keeps pores clear and complexion is more even. Took off one star as it does make skin more sensitive to the sun. Wear real sunscreen with min SPF35 every day. Been using this for over 3 years now. Keeping this retinol in my skincare regimen.

This is a gentle and effective mid level retinol. It really does help with skin turnover and fine lines and wrinkles.

Didn't know what to expect but love this retinol so far! Gentle and seems to work. I will try the 1.0 once I am done with this bottle.

Great Retinol product

Second time brand user
I purchased this after finishing the 0.25 product. It definitely feels twice the retinol strength so far and my skin is still adjusting to this one and this is my 3rd month of use. I’m able to use it 4 days a week so far and am hoping my sensitive skin is able to tolerate 5-6 days a week of use by the time the bottle runs out. I really love how the one pump measures the perfect pea sized amount so you know you aren’t using too much or too little product.
