A silky facial oil with 0.5% pure retinol, squalane and super vitamin E for experienced retinol users who want smoother, firmer-looking skin
The Retinol 0.5 Oil is COSRX's step up for anyone already comfortable with retinol. It suspends 0.5% stabilised pure retinol in a nourishing base of plant-derived squalane and super vitamin E (tocotrienols), so it glides on as a silky oil while helping to cushion the skin. With consistent night-time use it helps fine lines, rough texture and enlarged-looking pores look visibly smoother, for a firmer, more luminous complexion.

⚠ Hazards & Cautions
For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes — if contact occurs, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children. If irritation or sensitivity occurs, discontinue use and consult a physician. Ingredients may be subject to change at the manufacturer's discretion. This product contains a retinoid: patch test before first use and start slowly, two to three evenings a week, building up as your skin adjusts. Avoid use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
