Unlock Radiant, Youthful Skin with SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5

Elevate your skincare routine with SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5, a powerful yet balanced anti-aging treatment designed to transform your complexion. This advanced formula, encapsulated with the exclusive PhytoShield™ Complex, delivers 0.5% pure retinol to enhance skin tone, texture, and resiliency while minimizing irritation. Ideal for those who have pre-conditioned their skin with a lower-strength retinol, this complex is your next step towards visibly smoother, more radiant, and younger-looking skin.

Key Benefits:

• Enhances Skin Tone and Texture: Promotes healthy cell turnover, leading to a smoother, more refined skin surface and an even complexion.
• Diminishes Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Actively works to reduce the appearance of both fine lines and coarse wrinkles, revealing a more youthful look.
• Boosts Resiliency: Improves skin's elasticity and firmness, helping it to appear more supple and resilient.
• Reduces Dark Spots: Helps to brighten dark spots and hyperpigmentation, contributing to a more uniform skin tone.
• Minimizes Irritation: Formulated with the PhytoShield™ Complex, an antioxidant blend that helps to calm the complexion and reduce potential irritation, flaking, and redness commonly associated with retinols.
• Supports Collagen Production: Stimulates collagen, which is essential for maintaining skin's firmness and reducing signs of aging.

How to Use:

Apply a small amount to your entire face in the evening after cleansing and toning, before applying your moisturizer. Avoid getting into eyes. If contact occurs, rinse eyes thoroughly with water.

Important: If you are new to retinol products, begin by applying twice a week (2-3 days apart), gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then advancing to each evening or as tolerated. Mild redness, peeling, and irritation are expected. Do not use if you are pregnant, lactating, or planning to become pregnant. Always use a daily sun protection with SPF 30 or higher and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week following discontinuation.
