Retinol 0.5

Retinol 0.5 is a powerful facial cream formulated with pure retinol to target visible signs of aging.

Designed for nighttime use, this advanced treatment contains 0.5% pure retinol and utilizes cutting-edge stabilization and delivery systems to ensure consistent, gradual release. Enriched with bisabolol to help soothe and reduce irritation, it’s carefully packaged to maintain its effectiveness. This retinol cream promotes cellular turnover to visibly improve fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone and texture, and enlarged pores. Retinol 0.5 is ideal for ongoing use or to prepare the skin before progressing to SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0.

How to Use:
Apply 4–5 drops to clean, dry skin in the evening, avoiding the eye area. Let the product fully absorb before layering with other skincare. Start by using it once or twice a week, gradually increasing to every other night, then nightly as your skin builds tolerance. It’s important to establish consistent tolerance before progressing to stronger retinol concentrations.

Because retinol can heighten sun sensitivity, always follow with a broad-spectrum, high-protection sunscreen during the day.

Important Note:
Retinol products should not be used by pregnant women or those planning to become pregnant. While no adverse effects from topical retinol on fetal development have been reported, it's best to consult your doctor before use.

Key Ingredients:

• 0.5% Retinol: A vitamin A derivative that accelerates skin cell turnover to visibly reduce fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, and pores. It also helps improve blemish-prone skin.
