Best In Retinol

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0

This exclusive, and now award-winning, retinol formula by SkinMedica is encapsulated with an antioxidant complex, enhancing skin texture and minimizing irritation. We came, we saw, and we loved what years of innovative research has brought to the table.

A multi-award winner, this scalp scrub will soothe even the most sensitive of scalp concerns. The grains in this non-abrasive formula stimulate microcirculation in the scalp to supply the maximum amount of nutrients to the hair while also providing moisture to minimize dryness. That’s why Christophe Robin’s bestseller and show stopper is our contender for Best in Hair.
