A Gentle Retinol Cream for Smoother, Healthier Looking Skin

Want to add retinol to your routine but worried about dryness and irritation? Dr Althea Pure Retinol 0.15% Cream is made with a relatively gentle retinol concentration, making it a comfortable option for people starting their retinol journey. It helps improve the appearance of fine lines, uneven texture, dullness and loss of firmness while keeping the skin feeling moisturised.

The lightweight cream texture is especially easy to appreciate in Bangladesh’s warm and humid weather. It spreads easily and does not leave the heavy, greasy feeling that some richer night creams can.

Benefits

• Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Improves the look of uneven skin texture
• Supports firmer, smoother looking skin
• Helps promote a more refined and brighter looking complexion
• Provides hydration and helps support the skin barrier
• Suitable for beginners who want to introduce retinol gradually
• Lightweight enough for combination and oily skin

Detailed Product Overview

The star ingredient is 0.15% pure retinol, a well known vitamin A derivative used to improve the appearance of fine lines, texture and firmness. The formula also contains bakuchiol, which complements the retinol focused formula.

For added comfort, the cream includes Centella Asiatica, panthenol, allantoin and madecassoside, ingredients known for their soothing and skin conditioning properties. Glycerin and betaine help provide hydration, while Ceramide NP and cholesterol support the skin barrier.

The watery cream texture feels comfortable under a moisturiser and is particularly practical for Bangladesh’s humid climate.

Who Is It For?

This is a good choice for beginners looking for a gentle retinol cream, as well as those concerned about fine lines, rough texture, dullness or early signs of ageing. It can work for normal, combination, oily and dry skin when introduced gradually.

If your skin is currently irritated, peeling or sensitised, it is better to calm your skin first. People who are pregnant or trying to conceive should avoid retinoid products unless their doctor specifically advises otherwise.

Why Customers Choose This Product

The appeal is simple: you get retinol benefits without a thick, uncomfortable night cream. The 0.15% concentration makes it a sensible starting point, while soothing and barrier supporting ingredients help make regular use more comfortable.

It is also suitable for a wide range of South Asian skin tones, including medium, tan and deeper complexions. Remember that retinol can increase sensitivity, so daily sunscreen is essential.

How To Use

Cleanse your face and apply your usual toner or hydrating essence.
Apply a small amount of the cream evenly over the face at night.
If you are new to retinol, start 2 to 3 nights a week.
Increase frequency slowly as your skin becomes comfortable with it.
Avoid using it around the eyes and on irritated skin.
Apply sunscreen every morning while using retinol.

Avoid introducing several strong active ingredients at the same time, especially if your skin is sensitive.
