Retinol Resurfacing Serum 0.5

Our 0.5% Retinol Resurfacing Serum is formulated at a higher concentration and encapsulated for time-release, effectively diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while promoting radiance and clarity. This advanced formula is designed for experienced retinol users, ensuring continuous rejuvenation throughout the night. The inclusion of niacinamide helps strengthen the skin’s tolerance, while a clinically proven peptide works to unveil a smoother, firmer, and more youthful complexion. By addressing visible signs associated with Oxidative Aging™, this serum supports your skin's resilience against environmental stressors. We recommend consulting with a skincare professional before starting a retinol routine to ensure the best concentration for your skin's tolerance levels.

Microencapsulated Retinol (0.5%)

A vitamin A derivative and antioxidant that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improves texture and tone by strengthening skin, and increasing skin turnover. Retinol also targets blemish-prone skin by unclogging pores and enhances skin tone by reducing the appearance of discolouration. Encapsulated retinol allows for a slow release into the skin overnight minimizing side effects, so you can enjoy all the benefits of retinol with little to no irritation!

Niacinamide (vitamin B3)

Along with keeping in moisture and boosting hydration, it also brightens skin, and increases tolerance to topical retinoids.

MATRIXYL® Synthe'6®

Derived from a peptide naturally found in collagen and laminins, MATRIXYL® Synthe'6® is a tripeptide that strengthens the skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Tetrapeptide-14, Tea Extracts, Boswellia Serrata Extract, Honey

A peptide combined with the antioxidant properties of tea and the calming qualities of honey and boswellia.

Sodium Hyaluronate

A salt form of hyaluronic acid that hydrates by drawing water into the outer layers from deep within the skin. It holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making skin plumper, softer and smoother.

Glutathione

An antioxidant peptide produced naturally in our bodies, glutathione helps recycle other antioxidants. Glutathione levels decrease with age.

Do I need a consultation before buying AlumierMD skincare?

No — you can reserve or order Retinol Resurfacing Serum 0.5 without an appointment.
