The ideal Retinol for beginners to introduce your skin to this powerful ingredient. Specially formulated with a slow-release, less irritating form of Retinol, the skin-renewing serum targets first signs of aging and hyperpigmentation. Working to visibly improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and overall skin tone and texture with continued improvement over time.​ ​

Hero ingredient Retinyl Acetate is a derivative of vitamin A and works to gently resurface and enhance surface skin cell turnover, improving appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. This form of slow-release Retinol has been specifically chosen as a gentler anti ageing serum option. The added Squalane, a key antioxidant ingredient, provides additional hydrating and soothing benefits whilst helping to smooth skin's appearance.​ ​

If you are looking to reduce the appearance of post-acne scars, wrinkles and dark spots, once your skin is comfortable with our Retinol Serum, upgrade to the next level with our higher-strength Scar, Mark, and Wrinkle Solution with 1% Retinol.

Suitable for:

  • All Skin Types

Targets:

  • Fine Lines & Wrinkles
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Uneven Skin Tone & Texture

  • Before and after comparison
    "So I must tell you my skin used to look really dull and highly pigmented. I came across your products specially having acne scars and spots I thought of going with Retinol Serum and Vitamin C Serum, and now I can't believe how my skin looks. It just boosted my confidence and makes me feel sooo good. Thank you!"

    Affordable retinol

    Good price, good effect. Nice texture, a bit liquid.

    Not-so-good odor, but I understand it's better for my skin to not have perfume added.
