What is COSRX The Retinol 0.5 Oil 20 ml used for?
Looking for an immediate youthful boost to your skin? COSRX The Retinol 0.5 Oil is a highly concentrated skin care product, formulated with 0.5% stabilized pure retinol, designed for intermediate users looking to boost their anti-aging routine. This serum-oil intensely nourishes, improves skin firmness and refines skin texture for a radiant, even complexion.
Thanks to its formula, which contains no purified water or retinol derivatives, this treatment guarantees maximum effectiveness by stimulating cell regeneration and collagen production. It smoothes fine lines and wrinkles, corrects pigmentation spots and reduces the appearance of dilated pores, while reinforcing the skin's barrier against external aggressors.
This serum is ideal for those experiencing loss of elasticity and increased dryness. Its silky, rapidly absorbed oil texture envelops the skin in a nourishing veil, perfect for an evening ritual. The result? Firmer, suppler, more luminous skin, night after night.
Clinical studies are conclusive: after four weeks of use, deep wrinkles are significantly reduced by 22% on the forehead, 18% on the nasolabial folds and 17% around the eyes. Skin elasticity improved by 16% and chin firmness by 13%.
Thanks to the combination of pure retinol and tocotrienol, an ultra-powerful form of vitamin E, this skin care product offers a dual regenerating and protective action. While retinol stimulates cell renewal and reduces deep wrinkles, tocotrienol acts as a shield against oxidative stress and free radicals, responsible for premature aging. By reinforcing the skin barrier, it also helps preserve hydration and prevent the redness and irritation often associated with retinol-based skin care products.
In addition, plant-derived squalane gives this serum a silky, comforting texture , ideal for skin prone to dryness or loss of suppleness. This biomimetic active ingredient, naturally present in the skin, promotes optimal penetration of retinol without any greasy effect or occlusive film. The result? A highly effective treatment that combines anti-aging power and skin tolerance, for a more even complexion, plumped skin and a velvety feel.
In just two weeks, skin is visibly transformed. Pores are halved, their depth reduced by almost 20%, and skin texture is refined and smoothed. This youth booster is the ideal ally for plumping, even-toned skin.
For enhanced anti-aging action, combine with DermEden Retinal Concentré Rétinoïde Nuit 30 ml, the perfect complement for even more luminous, regenerated skin.
