Retinol 0.2% in Squalane is an anhydrous solution containing 0.2% pure retinol that works primarily against wrinkles, smoothes fine lines, improves skin tone and elasticity, and restores skin after sun exposure.
Serum action:
smoothes and reduces fine wrinkles,

moisturizes the skin,
reduces the visibility of blood vessels and dark circles under the eyes,

Retinol can cause severe irritation, redness and separation of the epidermis, especially around the eyes and lips, when skin tolerance builds on this component. If you have never used retinol products, it is recommended to use products with a weak effect, such as retinol 0.2% in squalane, and then gradually introduce stronger products. You'll achieve the same end results, but without the unpleasant irritation and redness.
