About This Product

Retinol is the gold standard in anti-aging skincare, but traditional formulas can be harsh and irritating. Our Smart Beauty Retinol Night Cream changes that with innovative encapsulation technology.

Each microscopic sphere contains pure retinol that's released gradually throughout the night. This time-release delivery means you get all the benefits of 0.3% retinol without the typical redness, peeling, and sensitivity.

We've also paired retinol with nature's alternative—Bakuchiol. This plant-derived ingredient works synergistically with retinol to enhance results while providing additional soothing benefits.

Our anti-aging complex includes: • Encapsulated Retinol 0.3% for cell turnover • Bakuchiol for enhanced results and soothing • Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4 (Matrixyl) for collagen support • Bisabolol for calming and anti-inflammatory benefits • Shea Butter and Squalane for nourishment

Clinical results show: • 67% reduction in fine lines after 12 weeks • 54% improvement in skin firmness • 78% reported smoother skin texture • 91% experienced no irritation

Perfect for retinol beginners or those who've given up on retinol due to sensitivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

I've tried retinol before and it irritated my skin. Will this be different?
Yes! Our encapsulated retinol releases gradually throughout the night, significantly reducing irritation. Plus, we've added soothing bakuchiol and bisabolol. 91% of our clinical trial participants experienced no irritation.
Can I use this with other actives like vitamin C or AHAs?
We recommend using vitamin C in the morning and this retinol cream at night. Avoid using AHAs/BHAs on the same night as retinol to prevent over-exfoliation. You can alternate nights.
Why do I need to wear sunscreen when using retinol?
Retinol increases cell turnover, which can make your skin more sensitive to UV rays. Always wear SPF 30+ during the day to protect your skin and prevent sun damage.
What is the 'purging' period?
When you start using retinol, you may experience a brief period where breakouts increase. This is normal—retinol is speeding up cell turnover and bringing existing congestion to the surface. It typically lasts 2-4 weeks.

Started seeing smoother skin within 3 weeks. My fine lines around my eyes and forehead have definitely softened. The texture is rich but not heavy.

Good but had minor purging

Experienced some purging in week 2-3 but it cleared up. Now my skin looks amazing. Wish I had known about the purging period beforehand but overall very happy.
