AlphaRet Overnight Cream
Double-conjugated retinoid night cream that renews skin with minimal irritation.
In stock
The hero of the SkinBetter Science range. AlphaRet combines a retinoid and lactic acid in a single double-conjugated molecule, so skin gets genuine retinoid renewal with far less of the dryness and flaking that usually comes with it. Used consistently at night it softens lines, refines texture and evens tone, and most people can build to nightly use comfortably. A sensible first retinoid, and an easy one to stay on.
Benefits
Softens fine lines and wrinkles, smooths and refines texture, evens tone, gentler than traditional retinoids
Key Actives
AlphaRet double-conjugated retinoid (retinoid + lactic acid), niacinamide, hydrating emollients
How to use
Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin in the evening. Start two to three nights per week and build to nightly as tolerated. Follow with moisturiser if needed.
