Cosrx The Retinol 0.5 Oil

A highly concentrated 0.5% pure retinol oil for intermediate users targeting texture, tone, and visible signs of aging.

COSRX The Retinol 0.5 Oil is a highly concentrated solution formulated with 0.5% stabilized, pure retinol for powerful anti-aging care, using no purified water or retinol derivatives. Despite being an oil, it has a quick-absorbing texture that doesn't leave skin greasy. Retinol helps increase the rate at which skin produces new cells, resurfacing skin to reduce the look of texture, uneven tone, and wrinkles — best suited for intermediate users already accustomed to retinol.

🌿 Key Benefits

• Resurfaces skin to reduce texture irregularities
• Improves the look of uneven skin tone
