TRETIN
Tretinoin Cream 0.05%
£20.00
Tretin (Tretinoin) Cream 0.05% is a topical vitamin A derivative (retinoid) widely used to support clearer, smoother and more refined-looking skin. Tretinoin works by increasing skin cell turnover, helping to unclog pores, improve uneven texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and post-acne marks.
Tretinoin 0.05% is commonly used for acne-prone skin, visible photo-ageing, and pigmentation concerns. By accelerating epidermal renewal and stimulating collagen production, it may help reduce breakouts, improve skin firmness and enhance overall skin tone clarity over time.
This mid-strength formulation is often chosen by individuals who have prior retinoid experience or who require more intensive skin renewal support.

What is Tretin 0.05% used for?
Tretin 0.05% is a topical retinoid used to treat acne, improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and support collagen production. It increases skin cell turnover, helping to unclog pores and improve overall skin clarity.
Is Tretin 0.05% stronger than 0.025%?
Yes. Tretin 0.05% contains a higher concentration of tretinoin than 0.025%, making it more potent. It may produce faster results but can also increase the likelihood of irritation, especially for beginners.
How long does Tretin 0.05% take to work?
Some improvement may be visible within 6 - 8 weeks. Full results for acne or anti-aging benefits typically appear after 3 - 6 months of consistent use.
Does Tretin 0.05% cause skin purging?
Yes, temporary breakouts (often called “purging”) can occur during the first few weeks. This happens because tretinoin accelerates skin cell turnover, bringing underlying congestion to the surface.
How often should I use Tretin 0.05%?
Beginners should start applying Tretin 0.05% two to three times per week at night. Once the skin adjusts, frequency may be gradually increased as tolerated.
Can Tretin 0.05% be used for anti-aging?
Yes. Tretinoin is widely used to improve fine lines, uneven skin tone, and texture by stimulating collagen production and increasing cellular turnover.
What are the side effects of Tretin 0.05%?
Common side effects include redness, dryness, peeling, irritation, and increased sun sensitivity. Using a moisturizer and daily sunscreen can help reduce irritation.
Can I use Tretin 0.05% every night?
If your skin tolerates it well, nightly use may be appropriate. However, some people prefer alternate-night use to reduce irritation.
Should I use sunscreen with Tretin 0.05%?
Yes. Tretinoin increases skin sensitivity to sunlight. Daily use of broad-spectrum SPF is strongly recommended during treatment.
