OBAGI - Retinol 1.0

Obagi Retinol 1.0 – Advanced Retinol Formula for Smoother, Clearer Skin

Obagi Retinol 1.0 is a concentrated retinol cream designed to support the skin’s natural renewal process. Encapsulated in a slow-release delivery system, this 1% retinol formula helps improve the appearance of uneven texture, fine lines, and visible aging, while being mindful of sensitivity. Developed for evening use, it works gradually overnight to refine the skin’s surface and promote a clearer, more even complexion.

This product is suitable for individuals seeking professional-grade retinol as part of a physician-guided skincare routine.

Benefits at a Glance

• Supports Skin Renewal
  Encourages natural cell turnover, aiding in the reduction of visible signs of aging such as fine lines and surface irregularities.

• Improves Tone and Texture
  Helps create a more uniform skin tone and smoother texture with continued use.

• Minimizes Irritation
  Entrapped retinol technology allows for a controlled release over time, which may reduce the risk of dryness and sensitivity often associated with retinoid use.

• Includes Hydrating Agents
  Infused with emollients such as shea butter and jojoba oil to help maintain moisture levels and enhance comfort.

Application Guidelines

Apply in the evening to clean, dry skin. Dispense one pump (or a small pearl-sized amount) and apply evenly to the face, avoiding the eye area, nostrils, and lips. For first-time users, begin with 2–3 times per week and gradually increase to nightly use as tolerated.

Always follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) during the day, as retinol can increase sun sensitivity.

Precautions and Important Use Information

Not Recommended For:

• Individuals with a known allergy to retinol or any ingredients in the formula

• Use during pregnancy, breastfeeding, or in children under 12 years of age unless under medical advice

Caution:

• Avoid contact with the eyes, lips, and mucous membranes. In case of accidental exposure, rinse thoroughly with water.

• Some users may experience temporary dryness, redness, or peeling when first incorporating retinol into their regimen. This typically resolves as the skin builds tolerance.

• Consult a healthcare provider before beginning use, especially if using other topical treatments or if you have sensitive skin.
