Description
COSRX The retinol 0.5 oil is formulated with 0.5% pure retinol, designed for users who are accustomed to retinol and seeking a more potent option to combat signs of aging. It targets deep wrinkles, fine lines, loss of skin elasticity, and uneven texture and tone. It also helps reduce pore size and improves skin firmness.
Start small and slow:
During evening care, apply 1 to 2 drops to hand and tap with fingertips from inside out, let absorb. Limit initial use to three times per week; gradually increase frequency to every other night, use as tolerated.
Have an ‘adaption period’ when using retinol
Week 1 - 2:
Frequency : use only 2~3 times a week at night
How to Use : After cleansing, at the serum step, apply 1-2 drops to areas of concern. e.g. under eyes, mouth, forehead and neck
Tailor your application by mixing the cream to suit your personal preferences
Week 3 -:
Frequency : may apply every other day at night
How to use : After cleansing, at the moisturizer step, may spread over the entire face.
The "building tolerance" phase can be shortened or extended depending on individual differences
Maintain this phase until no discomfort is experienced.
Gradually increase frequency and areas of application.
