Description
DermExcelâ„¢ Retinol Serum is a concentrated evening serum built around hydroxypinacolone retinoate, a retinoid known for being gentler on the skin than traditional retinol. It helps smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles, refine skin texture and keep pores looking clearer.
Niacinamide (4%) helps even out the look of skin tone and dark spots, while peptides, including acetyl hexapeptide-8 and palmitoyl tripeptide-38, support smoother, firmer-looking skin.
