Retinol 0.5%
Tax excluded. Shipping calculated at checkout
A mid-strength retinol treatment formulated to support visible skin refinement and clarity. Designed for skin that has been pre-conditioned with retinol, this encapsulated formula helps improve the appearance of fine lines, uneven tone, texture irregularities, and breakouts while maintaining comfort and balance.
Benefits:
- Helps improve the appearance of fine lines and uneven skin texture
- Supports smoother, clearer-looking skin
- Encapsulated retinol allows for controlled, gradual release
- Includes antioxidant and hydrating ingredients to support tolerance
- Suitable for most skin types once acclimated to retinol
How to Use:
Apply to cleansed and toned skin in the evening after lightweight serums. Smooth a thin layer over the face, neck, and décolleté. Follow with a moisturizer. Begin using once or twice weekly and gradually increase frequency as tolerated. Daily use of SPF 30 or higher is essential while using retinol.
Loshen’s Recommendation:
Ideal for those ready to progress beyond Retinol 0.3%. Once nightly use is well tolerated and further refinement is desired, consider stepping up to Vivier Retinol 1.0%.
