• Helps to smooth fine lines & wrinkles
• Assists to improve rough skin texture
• High-concentration retinol
• No redness or flaking

Obagi Retinol 1.0 Cream 28g is a high-strength, dermatologist-recommended retinol treatment formulated to minimise the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin texture. With 1.0% stabilised retinol in a time-released delivery system, this powerful yet gentle cream supports cell turnover, boosts collagen production and reveals smoother, more youthful-looking skin over time.

Unlike many traditional retinol products, Obagi’s formulation is encapsulated to deliver active ingredients gradually—reducing the risk of irritation while maintaining maximum efficacy. It’s an ideal choice for experienced retinol users seeking a clinical-grade anti-ageing solution.

How It Works

Obagi Retinol 1.0 uses advanced technology to penetrate deep into the skin, where it stimulates cell regeneration and collagen production. Its gradual-release system ensures that the skin receives the active ingredient slowly over time, helping reduce side effects such as redness, flaking, or sensitivity.

• Retinol (1.0%) – A derivative of Vitamin A that increases cell turnover and boosts collagen

• Shea Butter & Jojoba Oil – Help hydrate and nourish the skin

• Chamomile Extract – Provides calming and anti-inflammatory benefits

• Time-released encapsulation – Delivers retinol steadily for enhanced tolerability

Who's it for?

Suitable for dry, normal, combination and oily skin types. 

How to Use

1. In the evening, apply a pearl-sized amount to clean, dry skin

2. Start with 2–3 times per week, gradually increasing frequency as tolerated

3. Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF, like the Obagi Sun Shield Mineral Broad Spectrum SPF during the day when using retinol

4. Avoid use alongside other strong actives (e.g. AHAs, BHAs) unless advised by a skincare professional

Not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
