SHANI DARDEN Retinol Reform 1% Encapsulated Retinol Serum for Face & Neck – Gentle, Slow-Release with Tripeptide
Gentle Night-Time Renewal with Encapsulated Retinol
Discover a lightweight, slow-release retinol serum from SHANI DARDEN that pairs 1% encapsulated retinol with skin-supporting hydrators. The time-release design aims to soften the look of fine lines, refine texture, and even tone without the harsh dryness often associated with retinol.
Key benefits come from a balanced blend of actives and comforting ingredients. This multitasking formula uses encapsulation to deliver retinol gradually, reducing irritation while supporting renewal processes. Hints of tri-peptide work alongside prickly pear extract to help the skin feel smooth and resilient.
- 1% encapsulated retinol for gradual delivery that suits newcomers or sensitive complexions
- Tripeptides and prickly pear extract support visible texture refinement and tone harmonization

How to use: This is a PM ritual. After cleansing and toning, dispense 2-3 pumps and apply to dry face and neck, avoiding the under-eye area. Start 1-2 times per week and gradually increase. Do not mix with other AHA products on the same night. Not recommended during pregnancy or nursing.
