Revision Skincare Retinol Complete 0.5 | Advanced Retinol Night Treatment

An advanced retinol night treatment formulated for those beginning their retinol journey or returning after a break. Revision Retinol Complete 0.5 delivers 0.5% retinol in a carefully calibrated formula with encapsulation technology, peptides and antioxidants that allow the retinol to work effectively while minimising the dryness, peeling and irritation that most people associate with retinol use.

Who is Retinol Complete 0.5 best for?

• Those new to retinol wanting an effective introduction with good tolerability
• Those returning to retinol after a break or after irritation with stronger formulas
• Fine lines, uneven texture and early signs of skin ageing
• Sensitive skin wanting retinol renewal without significant adjustment period

Key ingredients and why they matter

• Retinol 0.5% (encapsulated): Encapsulation technology allows controlled, time-released retinol delivery that maximises efficacy while significantly reducing the likelihood of irritation, dryness and peeling compared to non-encapsulated retinol at equivalent concentration
• Peptide complex: Supports collagen production and skin firmness alongside retinol renewal
• Antioxidant blend: Protects against oxidative damage during the overnight renewal process
• Prebiotic complex: Supports the microbiome throughout retinol treatment

What results can you expect?

Progressive improvements in skin texture, fine lines and overall skin quality over 8 to 12 weeks of consistent nightly use. Most users notice improved skin radiance and smoothness within 4 weeks. Ready to step up? The Revision Retinol Complete 1.0 provides a higher-concentration option for experienced retinol users.

Apply Retinol Complete 0.5 in the evening after cleansing and as a standalone treatment step, then follow with D·E·J Night Face Cream or DermProtect Barrier Defense as your overnight moisturiser. In the morning, always apply Revision Intellishade TruPhysical SPF 45.
