O COSMEDICS corrective serums are concentrated, potent, highly active and focused on tackling specific skin conditions head on, employing specialised medical strength ingredients that offer intense and long-term results. In short – they pack a real skin health PUNCH. Think of Serums as REALLY hard workers who go above and beyond to deliver the best outcome, without which your skin simply can’t function at its best. Because of this it’s essential that your serums, which are multi-functional and perfect for layering, are prescribed by an O Skin Expert to ensure maximum results and a tailored approach to your individual concerns.
Read MoreIt’s our best retinol serum yet, with a 1% formulation of pure Vitamin A. Our Retinol 1% is designed to penetrate the skin to work at a cellular level to trigger your skin’s natural renewal process and speed up skin turnover. With a deep and intensive skin clarifying treatment, our Vitamin A age prevention serum will diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and stimulate collagen and elastin production to leave you with brighter, smoother and younger-looking skin.
While it’s a great option for dry, oily, mature and congested skin types, our retinol serum 1% is designed for people experienced in using near-prescription strength Vitamin A. Retinol Concentrate should be mixed in with an O Hydrator and never applied neat to the skin. If you find your skin is overly red and flaking, we suggest taking a break to allow your skin to naturally repair itself and consider layering it over corrector serums like our EGF Booster for added hydration and support.
No — we recommend waiting to use the Retinol 1% until the end of your pregnancy and after you have finished nursing. For effective anti aging alternatives like our O Skin-Inject Derma Roller and Pure Age Defiance Serum, please visit your nearest O skin clinic or start a live chat on our website with an O Skin Expert for more information.
Within a few weeks of using our Retinol 1%, you will start to see some positive, visible changes. However, it will take several months to accelerate your skin cell turnover and leave a lasting, radiant complexion with continuous application.
● Anti aging – Retinol Concentrate 1% is the best retinol serum to stimulate collagen production that helps strengthen its barrier, maintain its elasticity, hold hydration and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
● Skin renewal — Retinol promotes cellular turnover, shedding dead skin cells, improving skin texture and clarity and revealing the next generation of new, healthier skin cells.
● Even skin tone — Helps fade dark spots, hyperpigmentation and acne scars, resulting in a more even and uniform skin tone.
● Acne treatment — Retinol can be effective in treating acne. It helps to unclog pores, reduce inflammation and regulate sebum production, resulting in clearer skin and fewer breakouts.
While the Retinol 1% is packaged in an opaque and airtight bottle, retinol is prone to oxidisation. To maintain the product’s full shelf life, we suggest storing it on a cool, dry and dark shelf away from sunlight and out of reach of children.
While our retinol serum 1% is encapsulated to allow for a slow and controlled release of its active compounds, it can be too intense and sensitising for beginners. We suggest using Potent Retinol Serum or Retinoic Oil when introducing retinol to the skin to help acclimatise to near-prescription strength retinol.
