COSRX - The Retinol 0.3 Cream 20ml

COSRX The Retinol 0.3 Cream is a mid-strength retinol treatment designed to improve the look of fine lines, uneven texture, loss of firmness and dull-looking skin. With 0.3% pure retinol, it offers a stronger step up from beginner formulas, while panthenol, shea butter and multiple forms of hyaluronic acid help keep the skin feeling hydrated and comfortable. Tocotrienols, vitamin E and adenosine add antioxidant and elasticity support. It is best used gradually at night, making it a good option for experienced retinol users who want more focused anti-ageing care through the cooler NZ months.

How to use: 

1. Use at night after cleansing and your lighter skincare steps.
2. For the first 1–2 weeks, apply a small amount around 3 nights per week.
3. Once your skin adjusts, increase gradually to every other night.
4. Use around a pea-sized amount for the whole face and avoid the eye and lip areas.
5. Apply sunscreen every morning while using retinol.

COSRX recommends keeping this product refrigerated at 3–10°C after opening. Avoid using it in the same routine as scrubs, peeling products or strong exfoliating acids.
