High-Strength Retinol

Mature Ageing

Description Summary How to use Key Ingredients Works Well With

Dermaceutic Activ Retinol Serum 1.0% is an extra-strength, anti-ageing serum that reduces the appearance of advanced photodamage, reducing fine lines, deep wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation while improving a dull, dehydrated complexion. This product is not suitable for sensitive or rosacea-prone skin. Suitable for mature, sun-damaged skin.

Key ingredients include pure Retinol 1.0% repairs and protects more sun-damaged skin. It stimulates the renewal of skin cells and regulates the migration and transformation of keratinocytes. Vitamin C & Vitamin E are renowned for their combined antioxidant properties which help to prevent photo-ageing. A blend of skin-restoring ingredients such as Ceramides, Panthenol, Allantoin and a Mineral Cocktail all help to reinforce the skin barrier and intensely hydrate and protect the skin. Paraben-free. Fragrance-free.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: A unique combination of Retinol together with other high-performance actives to restore, rejuvenate and hydrate the skin giving it a radiant glow. Formulated for those with more advanced signs of skin ageing. It is best to use high-strength Retinol at night only. Always use a high-factor broad spectrum during the day when using this product to avoid pigmentation. I would suggest if you have never used Retinol before, starting with the Dermaceutic Activ Retinol Serum 0.5%. Do not use during pregnancy or if breast-feeding.

Strength: 1.0% Product Size: 30ml SPF: None Application Area:  Face Paraben Free: Yes Use: PM

  • Apply to the face and/or neck only in the evening before your Dermaceutic moisturiser if used.
  • This product should only be used by experienced Retinol users i.e. you have previously used Retinol or started on a lower percentage.
  •  We suggest you introduce this product slowly if you have not used Retinol before - use it three times a week or according to your own skin tolerance.
  • Limit sun exposure and always use a high factor, broad spectrum sunscreen daily but this is essential when using Retinol to avoid pigmentation.
  • All product packaging is 100% recyclable.

I have been using it every night for about a month now, and my skin is so happy. I experienced no peeling at all, even use it on my under eye, no problems whatsoever. This is one retinol I will continue buying… I have this glow. Just follow instructions especially if you are new to retinol and use sunscreen in the morning (vit C and sunscreen), you’ll thank me later…

Absolutely love this product, thanks to Tori for the review on it because it took me about a month to finally settle on a Retinol. I didn’t experience any skin peeling but I did introduce slowly, first twice per week then moved to four times per week a month later. My skin is glowing, such a treat!

I have quite a sensitive skin yet it tolerates this product well. I did experience some redness, sensitivity and flaking a few days after using it which is pretty normal, but once that was over my skin was glowing and there was a marked improvement to the texture of my skin.

I’m really enjoying this product! I’ve been using it for a few months and have noticed a marked improvement in my pigmentation, skin texture and brightness. I’m finally feeling like I don’t need to wear foundation! The texture of the product feels smooth on application and sinks in quickly. I leave it on for 20 minutes at night before applying my moisturizer. I’ve repurchased another bottle and will continue to use this product.
