## Glossier Universal Pro-Retinol Nightly Retinoid Treatment
**A retinoid everyone will love.** Whether you're new to retinol or a long-time user, Glossier Universal Pro-Retinol is a formula designed for visible, transformative results without the typical drawbacks of traditional retinoids: no irritation, no dryness, no flaking.
### What makes this formula special?
At the heart of the product is **0.5% Retinyl Sunflowerate** — an innovative hybrid ingredient combining pure retinol with fatty acids from sunflower seeds. This new-generation retinoid is clinically proven to be less irritating than its predecessors, while maintaining equally high efficacy. It visibly improves the appearance of:
- **Fine lines and wrinkles**
- **Blemishes and breakouts**
- **Enlarged pores**
- **Dark spots**
- **Uneven skin tone and texture**
The formula is complemented by nourishing ingredients that support the retinoid's action:
- **Stevia Extract** – Sourced from the stems and leaves of the stevia plant, it smoothes the overall appearance of the skin and targets fine lines as a naturally derived complement to retinol.
- **Ophiopogon Japonicus Root Extract** (Mondo grass root extract) – A botanical humectant that helps the skin retain moisture, keeping it conditioned and minimizing irritation often associated with retinoid use.
### Clinical Results
In a clinical study supervised by dermatologists, after just **4 weeks** of use:
- **100%** of users confirmed a visible skin transformation
- **100%** felt their skin was smoother
- **98%** observed an improvement in the appearance of imperfections and generally clearer skin
- **84%** confirmed a visible reduction in wrinkles
### Why is it worth it?
Developed to be tolerated by all skin types — even sensitive — this nightly treatment combines the power of a retinoid with the comfort of a nourishing cream. It is **vegan**, **cruelty-free**, **fragrance-free**, and **dermatologist-tested**, making it a trustworthy addition to any evening skincare routine.
Available in a practical 35ml pump bottle, designed for regular nightly use — gentle enough for those new to retinoids, yet effective for experienced users.
> *For sensitive skin, combine with a hydrating serum applied before and after application. Always use sunscreen in the morning — retinoids can increase skin's sun sensitivity.*
