{"product_id":"cosrx-the-retinol-0-5-oil","title":"COSRX The Retinol 0.5 Oil, 20ml","description":"\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eRetinol-in-oil formulas occupy a distinct niche within anti-aging skincare, delivering a stabilized retinol concentration through a lightweight oil base rather than the cream or serum bases most retinol products use. This format is generally chosen by customers who prefer an oil's fast, non-greasy absorption over a heavier cream, or who want the flexibility to layer a retinol step onto an existing moisturizer-based routine without disrupting its texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAt 0.5% stabilized retinol, this oil sits toward the higher end of over-the-counter retinol concentrations, which is why it is generally positioned for customers already familiar with retinol rather than those introducing an active ingredient for the first time. Pairing retinol with tocotrienols (a vitamin E form) and squalane reflects a common formulation approach in this category, where barrier-supporting ingredients are combined with an active to help offset the dryness or sensitivity retinol can introduce, particularly during the initial weeks of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWithin a nighttime routine, a retinol oil like this is typically introduced gradually — a small number of applications per week, increasing over time — rather than used nightly from the outset, and is generally followed by a moisturizer to help manage tolerability. Since retinol can increase sun sensitivity, daytime sunscreen is a standard companion consideration for anyone incorporating a retinol product into their routine, regardless of format.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCustomers who may find this oil relevant include those already experienced with retinol who are looking for an oil-based delivery format, and those specifically comparing retinol concentration and texture across face oils rather than creams or serums when choosing an anti-aging step.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"COSRX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45452549128412,"sku":"8809598454644","price":83.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/8085\/6284\/files\/COSRXTheRetinol0.5Oil_20mlbottle.jpg?v=1790059975","url":"https:\/\/www.roverisland.com\/products\/cosrx-the-retinol-0-5-oil","provider":"Rover Island","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
