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. Retinols because they accelerate cell turnover, 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.
