Monastery REI Gentle Retinol Cream

A smart retinol cream that handles itself with grace. Real retinol, not the fluff, paired with the mushroom of immortality, Reishi. Together, they bring the promise of brighter skin, smoother tone, and softened fine lines while being unusually kind to the skin’s barrier. Red seaweed and beta-glucan work overtime to hydrate and shield, so you get results without the red, tight aftermath.
