Concentrated facial cream with pure retinol improves the appearance of visible signs of aging and pores while minimizing breakouts

It also proven to help minimize blemishes and refine the appearance of pores.

Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, then every night as tolerated. It is important to establish consistent skin tolerance before advancing to a higher concentration.

Retinol may increase photosensitivity. Always use a high-protection, broad spectrum sunscreen when using this product.
As a precaution, retinol cream products should not be used by pregnant women or women who intend to become pregnant in the near future. Though there are no reports of topical retinol having any negative effect on fetal development, always consult a physician.

Science

Topical retinols have extensively been used by dermatologists to help combat and reverse the visual effects of aging, such as wrinkles, laxity, and discoloration.
Because Retinols accelerate cell turnover, they can also improve blemishes and the appearance of pores. The retinol molecule is highly-sensitive and vulnerable to breakdown if not properly protected.

Retinol 0.3 employs an optimized delivery system and protective packaging to ensure stability and efficacy of pure retinol.
