Meet your new skincare obsession: the 250% Strength Retinol with Moisture Lock Soothing Complex.

This isn’t just another retinol cream—it’s THE retinol cream. Powered by 2.5% retinol, a concentration 2.5 times stronger than most formulas, it’s designed to visibly reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and stubborn pores, while brightening and evening out your complexion.

Because powerful retinol needs balance: while many retinols leave skin irritated and dry, ours is expertly balanced with the Moisture Lock Soothing Complex, a luxurious blend of chamomile, shea butter, and passionflower, which delivers deep hydration and keeps irritation at bay.

To make it even gentler on the skin, the retinol is encapsulated for a slow, controlled release overnight, ensuring its potent effects are delivered gradually to prevent irritation while you sleep.

You get all the wrinkle-fighting benefits of retinol, but with silky smooth, soothed, and nourished skin.

Our Age-Defy Renewal Complex brings together the potent anti-aging benefits of retinol with ceramides and rosehip, which work in harmony to boost cell renewal, fade dark spots, and fortify the skin’s natural barrier.

This means firmer, more resilient skin without the irritation typically associated with retinol. It’s the ultimate marriage of strength and softness—delivering visible results while pampering your skin.

This breakthrough cream is exactly what your nighttime routine has been missing; get ready to wake up to smooth, glowing skin you’ll fall in love with.

"Incredible! I can not recommend this product enough!!

I am turning 32 and I have large pores on my cheeks, black heads on my nose that never go away and hormonal break outs on my chin area all the time.. I noticed a difference. And after 3 days, my black heads were completely gone! Plus my pores are dramatically smaller and I haven’t had any breakouts!

I have actually been complimented on how healthy and fresh my skin looks! A+++++ for this product!"

A Retinol Revolution Has Arrived

When it comes to anti-aging powerhouses, not all creams are created equal.

Enter our 250% Retinol Cream—a formula so potent, so revolutionary, it’s about to change the way you think about skincare. This isn’t just another cream on the shelf; it’s a game-changer. Packed with 250% the concentration of retinol compared to typical over-the-counter options, this formula dives deep beneath the surface to deliver age-defying results where they truly matter. It doesn't just smooth fine lines; it rewrites the script of your skin.

Other brands? They’re playing it safe, offering diluted formulas that only skim the surface. The result? Temporary improvement. Our 250% Retinol Cream, however, unleashes the full potential of retinol, working overtime to boost cellular turnover, reduce wrinkles, and unveil a dramatically smoother, firmer, and more radiant complexion from the inside out.

But it’s not just about intensity—it's about balance. We’ve paired our high-performance retinol with deeply nourishing and hydrating ingredients to soothe and restore the skin. This way, while retinol works its magic, your skin stays calm, hydrated, and happy—no dryness, no irritation, just silky softness.

Other creams might leave your skin parched, flaky, and irritated. Not ours. This is the new standard in retinol treatments.

Prepare to experience your skin at its absolute best—radiant, rejuvenated, and visibly transformed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes this product different from other retinols I’ve tried?

Great question! Our formulation provides a potent 2.5% retinol concentration, which is 2.5 times stronger than most out there. But here’s the magic: it’s balanced with our Moisture Lock Soothing Complex, so you get all the anti-aging benefits without the usual irritation or dryness. Plus, the retinol is encapsulated for a slow, controlled release—so you wake up to smoother, glowing skin.

I have really sensitive skin. Can I still use this?

Yes! Even though the retinol is strong, we’ve designed it to be gentle.

The formula includes chamomile, shea butter, and passionflower, all of which help soothe and hydrate while the retinol works its magic. The slow-release technology also helps minimize the chance of irritation.

Start with a small patch on the back of your hand first, then if all is well, begin using it 2-3 times a week to see how your skin adjusts.

How often should I be using it?

If you're new to retinol or using a stronger formula like this one, we suggest starting with 2-3 nights a week. As your skin builds tolerance, you can work up to nightly use. And don’t forget—sunscreen during the day is a must when using retinol at night!

When can I expect to see results?

You’ll likely notice smoother, brighter skin within 2-4 weeks. As for fine lines, wrinkles, and pores, give it a little more time—8-12 weeks is typical for significant changes. Consistency is key, so stick with it!

Can I use it with my other skincare products?

Yes, but a little caution is needed when pairing with strong active ingredients like AHAs or BHAs. They can increase irritation when used together with retinol. If you use them, consider alternating nights or check with a dermatologist to find the best routine for your skin.

I’ve experienced dryness and peeling with retinol before. Will this be the same?

We’ve heard that from others, too, which is why we created this formula with moisture in mind. The combination of encapsulated retinol and the Moisture Lock Soothing Complex is designed to prevent that uncomfortable dryness. However, if you do notice a little dryness, you can always layer a good hydrating moisturizer on top to keep things smooth.

Is it safe to use around my eyes?

The skin around your eyes is delicate, so it’s better to avoid applying retinol there. If you’re concerned about fine lines in that area, look for a dedicated eye cream with a lower concentration of retinol, specifically designed for the eye area.

Can I use this while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Retinol isn’t usually recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. We’d suggest consulting with your doctor or dermatologist before using it during these times.

I have combination skin. Will this work for me?

Yes! This formula is suitable for all skin types—dry, oily, combination, and even sensitive. The Moisture Lock Soothing Complex helps balance hydration while the retinol works to renew and improve your skin, so you’re covered whether you’re dealing with oily T-zones or dry patches.
