What is the % of Retinol in the Roc Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream?

...and Oprah is the authority? I'm not convinced. The manufacturer should provide the evidence in writing. I'll opt for other products, meanwhile. (I don't want to spend hours trying to get unavailable info).

The % percentage of retinol is not provided in the list of ingredients. I have purchased this product elsewhere and came here to find out if the % of retinol could be determined. After reading the info here for the product, glycolic acid is listed before the retinol and I am guessing there are different ways to combine ingredients for effectiveness - my experience has been ok but I am looking for something with more retinol, up to 1% and looks like I will go with Skinceuticals but not at Amazon as the reviews haven't been good

Hi..I really didnt know the answer until I did some research as I had bought this cream on recommendation from the Oprah web site Quote ". Look for ones with 0.1 percent retinol packaged in aluminum tubes (to protect the formula from air and light); we like RoC Retinol Correxion Deep WrinkleNight Cream ".So now we all know. I hope this helps

The serum will do a better job than the cream as it is more concentrated. I do not use this brand , but I do use another name brand serum and I love the results. I had a bad reaction to the RoC Deep Wrinkle Night Cream, But I bet the serum may be better. The serum's are great for night use and make your face feel so smooth. Also, you can call Johnson & Johnson at 1-800-762-1964 and they can answer any questions you have about the RoC products that you have. Hope this helps.

Hi Nikkie - the amount is 10% of retinol in the serum. Thanks! Kathy Heshelow, founder of Sublime Beauty

I no longer have the box, and the bottle dose not have ingredients. But the bottle does say Retinol-SA. I use a separate L-Asorbic acid (pure vitamin C) and then when it dries I add the Neutrogena Rapid Tone Repair moisturizer. The two are suppose to work well together to help build collagen and help even out dark spots.

The most retinol allowed without a prescription. I can't see how another product could be better. Not legally allowed to use 3.0% as is inferred by another product.

roc is ok, but i have been using this 2.5% for a little over a month and like it better. also it is cheaper.

I have thrown out the packaging. The only ingredient listed on the bottle is "Matrix Active Retinol". The website listed is www.neova.com The website might have more of a listing.

According to Wikipedia, 1 IU of retinol is 0.3ug, so to convert to % w/w: ((0.3ug x 400,000)/63g)*100 = 0.2% retinol. This would be functionally equivalent to about 0.002% retinoic acid.

In my personal experience, every ROC product I have used has given me visible results. From what I've read, the older we get the more we need retinol (in addition to serum and alpha-hydroxy).

I use Retinol at night and use SkinCuticals A.G.E. Interrupter as day cream under my make-up

The night cream does contain retinyl palmitate.It does not contain oxybenzone.It does however contain Benzyl Salicylate(if that's a problem).

The percentage of vitamin C is not listed but it is the ninth ingredient of thirteen listed. My face does not peel like it does with the 0.5 % retinol products yet I see an amazing improvement in my skin. It feels tighter, healthier and it has a youthful glow (I am in my fifties). You can contact the company directly at 800-290-6932 and they may be able to provide you with an accurate answer to the percentage of vitamin C.

Hi....I don't see it listed. The main ingredient is pure vitamin C. I know it worked for me. It's not an over night cure. Must have patience.

Hello and thanks for your question! 10% means that Retinol is at 10%, the recommended amount by researchers and scientists to be effective. Some products have 1% or 3% retinol. Once at 15%, the retinol may be irritating for some users and our goal was to be effective but non-irritating. Yes, it is indeed ideal for wrinkles in the eye area. Retinol works to slough old cells and encourage new skin and collagen production, which helps reduce wrinkles. There are many other things Retinol does, too, and I write about this in the Retinol report that is sent after purchase. Thanks again for your question! Kathy Heshelow, founder of Sublime Beauty

I checked and they don't give a % breakdown of that. However clearly Vitamin C is the core ingredient. I can tell you, it's one of the most amazing products. Hope this helps.

I'm sorry, but your question appears to be sent to the wrong address. My comment didn't mention percentage of retinol at all, nor do I know the answer to that question.

0.60%. It is very strong and should only be used on skin that is used to retinol.
