Powered by O’s V8 Peptide Complex, Retinol Concentrate is a highly concentrated, corrective lotion serum that works to intensely refine, smooth, decongest, stimulate and regulate the skin. Encapsulated 1% Retinol delivers double the strength to target excessively oily, stubborn, congested, textured, aging and thickened sun-damaged skin, balancing heavy oil flow, unclogging pores, stimulating collagen and dramatically improving overall skin texture. Vitamin E, Hyaluronic Acid, antioxidants and peptides support and protect the skin, enhancing firmness while improving tone and radiance. Skin is left refined, balanced and visibly renewed, with a smoother, more even and radiant complexion.
HOW TO USE
introduce Retinol Concentrate by:
Using every second to third evening to start (yes, even after Potent Retinol Serum)
Mix ½ -1 pump into your O Hydrator and apply to the face, avoiding the eye area
Gradually increase to every second evening then to each evening if skin tolerates
Do not apply neat to the skin unless spot-treating dark pigmented areas with the guidance of an O Skin Expert
Follow with Mineral Pro SPF daily for UV protection
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT use if pregnant or breastfeeding
Avoid the eye area
If skin feels itchy, stinging and appears red and inflamed (retinoid response) stop using until this has resolved and slowly reintroduce
If this occurs again, your skin may not need such intense Retinol. Switch back to Potent Retinol Serum and always consult an O Skin Expert
It is normal to feel dry when first beginning on more concentrated Retinol. However, red, burning and stinging is not necessary and is a sign you’ve either used too much too fast, or your skin needs a different form of Vitamin A
BEST FOR
True oily and excessively oily skin types
Stubborn and congested, textured skin and mild breakouts
