Description
Description
Obagi Retinol 0.5% Cream 28g is a highly effective entrapped retinol cream that gradually releases 0.5% retinol to renew the skin and minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles — with minimal irritation. The Obagi Retinol 0.5% uses a unique microsponge delivery system that traps retinol and releases it slowly into the skin, making it the ideal introduction to professional retinol for those new to vitamin A or with more sensitive skin. Furthermore, it is non-acnegenic and hypoallergenic, and enriched with soothing botanicals to support skin comfort throughout the renewal process.
Why Choose Obagi Retinol 0.5%
The Obagi Retinol 0.5% is the entry-level concentration in Obagi’s retinol range — ideal for retinol beginners or those with more reactive skin. As tolerance builds, step up to the Obagi Retinol 1.0%. Begin 2–3 nights per week and gradually increase to nightly use. Always follow with daily SPF.
