SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.5 is a concentrated night cream formulated with 0.5% pure retinol to improve the appearance of visible signs of aging and pores while helping minimize breakouts. Enhanced with advanced stabilization and delivery technologies, it ensures a steady, even release of retinol for effective overnight renewal.
Designed to help diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin discoloration, this retinol night cream can also refine the appearance of pores and reduce the look of blemishes associated with problematic skin. A soothing complex with bisabolol and boswellia serrata extract helps comfort skin and minimize irritation commonly associated with retinol use.
Specialized packaging helps preserve retinol potency. The formula is non-comedogenic and free of parabens, fragrance, and gluten. Ideal for skin that has been preconditioned with a lower-strength retinol such as Retinol 0.3.
