1 / 2Hyper Retinol EX 1.0
A higher-strength retinol serum for people who already use retinoids comfortably and want to push a little further on fine lines and texture. The "1.0" refers to its retinoid complex, which pairs real retinol with gentler retinoid-like partners to soften the usual harshness. Best for normal, combination, or drier skin focused on early aging and rough texture.
More detail
The complex combines retinol with a milder retinol derivative (retinyl palmitate) and bakuchiol, a plant ingredient that behaves somewhat like retinol, so the strength is spread across several forms. Adenosine, niacinamide, peptides, and ceramides round it out to support firmness, tone, and the barrier against retinol dryness. The texture is a light, hydrating serum. Use it at night on clean, dry skin, starting two or three times a week and building up as your skin tolerates it, always over unbroken skin. Expect some dryness or flaking early on, wear sunscreen daily, and skip it during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
