A-Gloei™ Maretinol Oil

The MECCA view

New to retinol or worried about irritation? This glow-boosting oil pairs 0.5% vegan retinol with nourishing marula oil to smooth texture, even tone and soften the look of fine lines, without the usual dryness. It’s gentle enough to use regularly, even for first-timers, and gives skin a radiant, healthy-looking finish. Designed to restore bounce and clarity, it’s retinol made easy and made for everyone.

Key ingredients

0.5% Retinol: A gentle but powerful form of vegan retinol that helps even out tone, smooth texture, and defend against daily damage from pollution and UV exposure.

Virgin Marula Oil: A fast-absorbing, antioxidant-rich oil packed with omegas 6 and 9 to deeply nourish, moisturise and leave skin looking radiant and refreshed.

Ceramides: Skin-loving lipids that help strengthen your barrier, lock in moisture, and keep skin feeling smooth, elastic and protected.

Made without

Essential oils, silicones, and fragrance.

Pro-tip

1. Mix with C-Tango or Ceramighty for a gentle retinol undereye treatment.

2. Mix with F-Balm for a more intensive smoothing overnight renewal mask.

3. It’s a myth that retinols can’t be used with AHAs— you just need the right kinds. Try mixing A-Gloei and T.L.C. Framboos for better results on fine lines and signs of sun damage.

Direct from the brand

I wanted to make A-Gloei for people who aren’t familiar with the amazing benefits of retinol. Retinol is highly effective at increasing cell turnover and targeting the signs of aging while reducing inflammation and acne. And since virgin marula oil is so good at moisturizing and soothing the skin, it’s the perfect delivery vehicle. I wanted to sneak retinol in the line at a lower level to make it ideal for anyone who is just getting used to retinol and wants to build a tolerance. Try it a few times and you’ll see how effective but gentle it is. I know I will make a retinol believer out of you, too. - Tiffany, Founder.
