## Overview

## Description

Traditional retinol creams are notorious for wreaking havoc on the skin due to sensitizing side effects like irritation, redness and dryness. Introducing: Phyto-Retinol Advanced Clinical Cream – our newest Phyto-Retinol innovation that delivers advanced anti-aging results now in a luxurious, hydrating and nourishing soft cream. This non-sensitizing, non-irritating, and hypoallergenic clinical cream is powered by Peptilum®, a revolutionary ingredient clinically proven to deliver 10 age-defying benefits and works 2X faster and better than traditional retinol. When it comes to clinical anti-aging results, your skin shouldn't have to pay the price! Plus, this nourishing formula is packed with Carotenoid Rich Oils and Illipe Butter that help to revive the skin’s elasticity, while maintaining the appearance of plump and moisturized skin.

Review: Terrific For Hydration - You need very little product. I have sensitive skin prone to breakouts. This moisturizer is rich enough to hydrate but does not leave a greasy mess. I put it on top of the radiance oil. Three drops of oil and just a dab on the fingertip of the moisturizer. It absorbs and makes the skin look healthy and hydrated. For reference I am a 43 yr old female who gets facials regularly. I have some fine lines and while the cream doesn’t make them disappear, it definitely reduces their appearance by adding moisture and making the skin look a little plumper. I add a tinted moisturizer on top by DRMTLGY and the fine lines ALMOST disappear. I don’t use make up.
Review: Wonderful facial moisturizr - Great product. Moisturizes well and nice creamy coverage that absorbs into face well
