Description
Complex A+ delivers a maximized 1.3% retinol dose in a refined micro-emulsion to help re-texturize the skin and visibly improve multiple markers of aging in as little as 12 weeks. The formulation pairs retinol with bakuchiol, a phytoretinoid renowned for complementing retinoid activity, to encourage a smoother surface, a more even look of discoloration, and renewed skin bounce with consistent, guided use.
A supportive blend featuring vitamin E (tocopheryl acetate), retinyl palmitate, and sodium hyaluronate helps condition the skin while advanced silicones improve spreadability and user comfort. The result: a high-efficacy evening treatment that targets lines, laxity and visible photo-damage, without a heavy feel.
