How it’s different & why it works:
This is an extremely powerful and potent night cream. Dermatologist developed and scientifically formulated with potent ingredients that work together to get you real results.
This night cream contains 0.5% strength Vitamin A retinol at prescription strength, while the strongest over the counter creams available on the market are typically only 0.01%.
It is good to be aware of the strength difference in the percentage of retinol, and to also know the retinol in this night cream is derived from tretinoin, which is very different and much stronger than over the counter creams.
It is an essential addition to your anti-aging regimen or to treat and prevent acne, to reverse UV-induced skin damage, thinning, wrinkles, and this cutting-edge topical also combats acne in teens.
This cream also noticeably improves the overall appearance of skin firmness and elasticity.
It also noticeably improves the overall appearance of acne, shrinking pores and strengthening the skin barrier.
When used as an anti-aging and anti-acne cream, this retinol cream works best when combined with hyaluronic acid serum (included our Anti-Aging Revolutionary Results Routines). This combination helps to minimize dryness and irritation, while maximizing benefits.
This retinol night cream is also an excellent addition to acne regimens for individuals with excessively oily skin, clogged and enlarged pores, sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles.
This product is specifically engineered to keep pores open (i.e. prevent breakouts) and minimize excess oil production, which results in fewer acne relapses and a more radiant complexion.
How to use:
This product is extremely potent. Apply a pea size amount in a thin layer, and avoid eye area, corners of your nose and lips.
Start using gradually, every second night per week and see how fast your skin tolerates it.
For oily skin: use alone nightly over water based serums.
AVOID USE IF YOUR ARE BREASTFEEDING OR ARE PREGNANT.
It’s important that you read “what to know” for proper use and best results, as this is a very powerful retinol cream.
What to know:
Medical grade retinol is a powerful ingredient that may cause some irritation or dryness to your skin, because pure retinol instantly begins working to remove dead skin cells and improve your skin’s texture.
Retinol products cause initial dryness, redness, and sensitivity, which is called “retinoic reaction.” This is a known reaction to using medical grade retinol.
This is not an allergic reaction, but an intrinsic property of all retinol serums and creams.
Revoderm’s retinol night cream is specifically designed with a unique epidermal carrier system (encapsulated retinol) to minimize this tendency.
If you experience dryness, redness, and sensitivity, please be aware that these tend to improve with time once your skin becomes accustomed to it. You may also choose to add more moisturizer into your skin care routine to restore balance for the time being.
Dryness, redness and peeling may occur. If it does, stop using the product for several days. Then, restart Revoderm Retinol by mixing in equal parts with a moisturizer, such as our Mega Multi Vitamin C Moisturizer.

NOTE: Be sure to always wear sunscreen outdoors while using retinol products to protect your results and to prevent skin damage, as your skin becomes extremely sensitive to UV rays and the damage they can cause, such as increased brown spots.
For long lasting results, use with the Anti-Aging Revolutionary Results Routine.
