Retinol

Start here: PURITO TXA 6 Niacinamide 10 Retinal Serum — all part of our MARO Picks, the 15 products we recommend first.

Korean retinol formulas are designed for people who found Western retinoids too harsh. Encapsulated or low-concentration retinol, paired with soothing and barrier ingredients, delivers the fine-line and texture benefits with far less peeling and redness.

Start two or three nights a week, apply a pea-sized amount to dry skin after cleansing, and follow with a moisturizer. Always use sunscreen the next morning. Avoid combining with strong exfoliants or vitamin C on the same night until your skin has adjusted.

Every product is 100% authentic, sourced directly in Korea, and ships free to the US and worldwide from THE MARO SHOP.
