La Roche-Posay Retinol B3 Serum (Anti-Wrinkle Concentrate Renewing Resurfacing)
What Is This
A powerful anti-aging serum concentrated with pure and gradual-release Retinol, Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide), and La Roche-Posay Thermal Spring Water. It is designed to target visible signs of aging while being suitable for sensitive skin.
Purpose of Use
To visibly correct and reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles, fine lines, and uneven skin tone caused by premature sun damage. It works to renew and resurface the skin for a smoother, brighter, and firmer complexion.
Why It’s Special
The serum features a unique blend of Pure Retinol for immediate action and Gradual Release Retinol for continuous efficacy with minimal irritation.

Tip
Apply in the evening only. Start by using it 2-3 nights a week, slowly increasing the frequency as your skin builds tolerance. Crucial Tip: Always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) the next morning, as Retinol increases sun sensitivity. Avoid using this serum on the same night as harsh exfoliants or scrubs.
