Retinol 0.5 is a concentrated facial cream with pure retinol that improves the appearance of visible signs of aging.

• Formulated to minimize irritation commonly associated with the use of retinol creams
• Improves the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, discoloration, pores, and skin tone evenness
• Specialized packaging preserves retinol potency
• Non-comedogenic, paraben-, fragrance-free
• Ideal for skin preconditioned with Retinol 0.3

In the evening, apply a pea-sized amount of this night cream to clean skin, avoiding the eye area. Allow for absorption before applying other skincare products. Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency as tolerated. Retinol is prone to increase photosensitivity. Always use a high-concentration, 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, some problems have been reported with ingested retinoic acid.
