Description

The research-based derma line of COSRX was born, a prescription solution that optimally blends customized high-efficiency ingredients to solve skin problems and delivers them safely and effectively to the skin.
It is a deep elasticity care product that was born after research for firm and strong skin.

Use this product when you see unprecedented fine lines around the eyes and mouth, when you are worried about the texture of loose and sagging skin, when elasticity or dryness does not improve, or when you want to give your skin a healthy glow.
Recommended for intermediate users who are looking for a step up from low-content retinol, use it more intensely with high-strength pure retinol that cares for elasticity more deeply.

It has a silky oil formula that penetrates lightly and provides glow to the skin.
Due to the characteristics of the retinol component, the color may darken or there may be a unique odor.
Feel the multi-care nutrition without burdening your skin as it gently penetrates without being heavy or sticky!
It helps to provide moist and shiny shine, soft moisture, strong skin barrier, smooth skin texture, strong skin elasticity, and nourishment during the night.

Many retinol products use a relatively easy-to-develop retinol derivative (retinyl palmitate) instead of pure retinol, which is sensitive to light and heat.
It blocks aging concerns by prescribing highly concentrated ingredients that help with special elasticity care along with pure retinol.
It contains super vitamin E, which is up to 50 times more effective than tocopherol, and contains 91% vegetable squalane, which is a moisturizing factor that is skin-friendly and moisturizing.
[How to use]
Please be careful as you may feel irritation when using around the eyes and mouth with sensitive skin.
1. Apply after washing the face in the evening and during the serum stage.

2. Please follow the adaptation guide.
*Use it every other day in the evening as an adaptation period for the 1st and 2nd week, and apply an amount equal to the size of a grain of rice onto the desired area.
*From the 3rd week onwards, it is the stabilization period, so apply an appropriate amount to the entire face in a pea-sized amount when using it every evening.
3. Use immediately after purchase and keep refrigerated.

As retinol acts on the skin, it may cause irritation (redness, peeling, and burning).
This phenomenon indicates that the product is working normally, and if irritation persists, reduce the frequency or discontinue use.

*Due to the characteristics of the aluminum tube, when it is first opened, the contents may discharge excessively, so please use it with caution.

  1. Beckett San Diego, USA

    I’ve been using this retinol oil for a few months now. The texture is nice and it absorbs quickly. My skin feels firmer, especially around my eyes and mouth. It doesn’t leave an oily residue, which I like a lot. Shipping was prompt too; I’ll definitely buy again.

  2. Ananya Pune, India

    इसे इस्तेमाल करने से चेहरे की सख्ती बढ़ी है। ऑयली टेक्स्चर जल्दी ठीक हो गया। पैकेजिंग अच्छी थी और डिलीवरी समय पर हुई। यह वापिस खरीदने लायक उत्पाद है。

  3. Megan Soenong

    As an intermediate retinol user, I found the COSRX The Retinol 0.5 Oil to be a total win! After just a few weeks, I noticed visible changes like plumper, bouncier skin and refined pores. My makeup also applies much smoother now without settling into fine lines.

  4. Maria Jimenez-Castro from Tulum, Mexico

    Okay, so I’ve been using COSRX Retinol Oil for a hot minute and OMG it’s kinda amazing! You know when you stare at the mirror and see those little lines pop up like unwanted guests? This stuff smooths them out, seriously. Plus my skin feels all bouncy and healthy! It’s more of an oil than what you’d expect – no heavy feeling, just glowy goodness that sinks right in. And don’t get me started on how it perks up tired vibes; hello radiant face! If you’re a skincare nerd trying to take your glow game to another level without being overwhelmed by super potent stuff, this is def worth adding to the shelf. 🌟
