Retinol, understood

A proven standard in skin renewal

Retinol is widely recognized for its ability to support cellular turnover, helping improve the look of fine lines, uneven tone, texture, and clarity.

Vivier approaches retinol with precision. Using Poly-Pore® technology, our formulas release the retinol gradually, helping to optimize results while maintaining skin comfort. The result is visible renewal that feels controlled, balanced, and consistent over time.

A three-step progression

Designed to build tolerance gradually, allowing skin to adapt while supporting visible, consistent results over time.

Retinol, Clarified

Retinol does not need to cause irritation to be effective

While highly potent, it can deliver results without disrupting the skin. Vivier’s retinol is encapsulated using Poly-Pore® technology, allowing for a gradual release that helps reduce the appearance of redness and irritation while supporting visible renewal.

Retinol supports more than visible signs of aging

Often associated with correction, retinol also plays a role in supporting the skin’s natural renewal process. When introduced early and at an appropriate strength, it helps maintain smoother, more balanced-looking skin over time.

A gradual approach allows skin to build tolerance, making it easier to progress as needs evolve while improving the appearance of texture, tone, and clarity.

Formulation and delivery matter

Not all retinols perform the same. Strength, formulation, and delivery systems all influence how the skin responds.

Vivier combines high-quality ingredients with advanced delivery technology to optimize results while maintaining skin comfort.

Sensitive skin can still benefit from retinol

With the right approach, retinol can be well tolerated. Lower strengths and balanced formulations help support skin comfort, while gradual introduction allows tolerance to build over time.

This enables visible results without unnecessary barrier disruption.

“I have very sensitive skin, and I really thought I was someone who wouldn’t be able to use retinol products at all. However I am loving this! I’ve been following the directions and my skin has improved after a couple of weeks with no negative effects- only positive. Thank you!”

“I was using another high end brand retinol that made my skin red and flaky. NOT this one! My skin has improved greatly, much smoother and not irritated. I can even use it nightly with no issues. Noticed fine lines have diminished too. Definitely a permanent item in my skin care routine now.”
