OBAGI 0.5 Smoothing Retinol

The ideal starting point for anyone new to retinol or building back up after a break. Formulated with 0.5% Entrapped Retinol using the same slow-release delivery system as the 1.0 strength, it gradually promotes skin cell turnover for visibly smoother, more even and brighter looking skin, with a gentler adjustment period than higher concentration retinol formulas.

Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil, Coenzyme Q10, Licorice Extract and a soothing botanical blend of Chamomile, Green Tea and White Tea keep the skin calm, nourished and supported throughout the renewal process.
