Available for preorder The luxurious REFINING COMPLEX formula combines the power of retinaldehyde with the cell protection specialist teprenone to refine the complexion and strengthen the skin barrier. At the same time, the base of squalane, almond oil, and sunflower oil ensures soft, supple skin, while glycerin binds valuable moisture. This means that despite its retinal content, the oil does not dry out the skin! Questions & Answers What makes this oil so special? This elixir combines the power of retinal (a precursor to retinoic acid) with cell- protecting teprenone and antioxidants such as Q10. It combines the effectiveness of a serum with the intensive care of valuable plant oils.What is the difference between this and regular retinol? Retinal works up to 11 times faster than classic retinol because it is absorbed by the skin in just one conversion step. It is more effective at combating wrinkles and is often better tolerated.What exactly does teprenone do? Teprenone is a high-tech active ingredient that acts on telomeres (the end caps of our chromosomes). It helps to extend cell life, strengthen the skin barrier, and reduce redness and age spots.Is the oil suitable for oily skin?Yes. The squalane and almond oil base is light and absorbs quickly. Squalane is very similar to human sebum and helps regulate the skin's own oil production without clogging the pores.Why is the oil yellowish in color?The colour is a sign of quality! Both retinal and ubiquinone (Q10) have a natural, strong color (yellow to orange), which gives the oil its characteristic appearance.How do I incorporate the oil into my routine?Apply 3-4 drops to the face in the evening after cleansing. You can use it alone or mix it with your night cream or the products listed below.Is there anything I need to bear in mind when using it? Since retinal makes the skin more sensitive to light, you should always use sun protection (SPF) during the day. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using vitamin A derivatives.Which products should I avoid combining with this oil?Products with a high vitamin C or fruit acid content may cause skin irritation when used with Retinal. Please do not combine with OXYJET PERFECTIONS BRIGHT SKIN and/or SKIN RENEWAL.Which products are ideal combinations?OXYJET PERFECTIONS INTERCELL BOOSTER, ULTRA FIRM, ACTIVATOR, OXYGEN BOOSTER, CLEAR SKIN, and REDNESS CONTROL are ideal partners for mixing. The same applies to the care products from the BEAUTY-TOX, CEROMONE, and INTACT lines.Can the oil be used with OXYJET devices?REFINING COMPLEX OIL is free from fragrances and preservatives, making it suitable for use with OXYJET pulsed oxygen pressure treatment. It is also ideal for lymphatic activation with the new OXYeMOTION applicator, either on its own or mixed with INTACT Perfect Skin Volume Cream.
