Description

Our highest-strength retinoid formula with stabilized retinaldehyde for advanced age support, optimal for nighttime use.

Step 2: Treat

Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a very high strength retinoid formula that rapidly firms and smooths skin, while noticeably reducing the appearance of dark spots. It helps refine skin texture, while targeting uneven tone and boosting luminosity for brighter, more even-looking skin.

With a high 0.2% concentration of retinal, Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is able to noticeably improve skin firmness and improve the look of lines and wrinkles, including crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles.

The serum-textured formula is suitable for all skin types, and is recommended for experienced users of retinoids.
