The Retinol Serum
"The Retinol Serum leverages the powerful synergy of pure, therapeutic Retinol — known to gently yet effectively accelerate cellular turnover — and our high-performance proprietary TFC8® technology. Working together, the formula optimizes the body’s natural capacity for self-repair for skin that is measurably refined, restored and more youthful-looking without discomfort or redness." —Professor Augustinus Bader
