Benev - BENEV Retinol Cream - 1 oz

Retinol Cream, with .50% retinol, applied externally, penetrates deep into the skin, where it becomes fully operative. Retinol is Vitamin A in its purest and most active form. Retinol not only improves the appearance of existing wrinkles, but also helps to prevent wrinkles. Studies have shown that retinoids counteract the physiological processes that actually lead to wrinkled, photoaged (sundamaged) skin. This product can also be used to treat acne and helps prevent new breakouts. This product contains retinol that has been stabilized with antioxidants and will provide a consistent activity level with each application. This gentle formula contains an anti-irritant agent to minimize potential irritation typically associated with the use of products containing retinoic acid. Rose Hip Oil, a source of trans-retinoic acid in a natural bio-available form, has been added to the formula as a tissue hydrator with a high level of absorption, penetrating dry skin almost instantly to restore the balance of moisture in the skin. Directions For Use: Apply a small amount of Retinol Cream into the affected area at bedtime, being careful to avoid the eyes, nostrils and mouth. Wash hands immediately after use. Effects of this Retinol Cream will be gradual with full benefits seen in 2 to 3 months. If used for acne the condition may worsen for 1 to 3 weeks, then eventually improve. Caution: This product increases your sensitivity to the sun. Limit sun exposure and use an effective sunscreen when outdoors. Use of this product is not recommended during pregnancy or while nursing.
