When you’re ready to do more than maintain your skin, Green Envee Retinal Renewal Complex takes your nighttime routine a step further. This advanced nighttime retinal treatment helps soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, refine uneven texture and visible pores, and improve the look of firmness and discoloration. Whether you’re addressing early signs of aging or changes that are more established, retinal is one of the most effective ingredients you can add to a long-term routine.
Size: 1 oz
What Makes It Different
Retinal is a more advanced form of vitamin A than traditional retinol. It requires one fewer conversion step in the skin before becoming retinoic acid, giving you a more direct approach to skin renewal. Green Envee uses a liposomal retinal delivery system and combines it with peptides and gentle resurfacing support to address multiple visible signs of aging in one nighttime treatment.
What Makes It Stand Out
Softer Lines and Wrinkles
Helps smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Firmer-Looking Skin
Helps improve the look of firmness and elasticity.
Refined Texture and Pores
Smooths uneven texture and refines the appearance of visible pores.
More Even Tone
Helps improve the look of discoloration and uneven tone.
Designed for Comfort
Liposomal delivery and soothing botanicals help make retinal easier on the skin.
Key Ingredients
Retinal
An advanced form of vitamin A that supports skin renewal and helps improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture and discoloration.
MATRIXYL synthe’6 (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38)
A peptide that helps improve the appearance of firmness, smoothness and wrinkles.
Niacinamide
Helps support the skin barrier while improving the appearance of uneven tone, texture and visible pores.
Beta-Glucan
Helps replenish hydration and support the moisture barrier, especially useful as skin adjusts to retinal.
How to Use
Use in the evening. Apply one to two pumps to clean skin, avoiding the eye area. Follow with Green Envee Hydrate Facial Mist and gently massage into the skin, then finish with moisturizer. Start two to three nights per week and gradually increase as your skin adjusts. Always wear sunscreen during the day.
Pila’s Tip
If retinal tends to leave your skin dry or flaky, try the “retinal sandwich.” Apply a light layer of moisturizer first, follow with Retinal Renewal Complex, then finish with another light layer of moisturizer. This is especially helpful in areas that tend to dry out first, like around the mouth and the high points of the cheeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What’s the difference between retinal and retinol?
A: Both are vitamin A derivatives, but retinal is one conversion step closer to retinoic acid than retinol. That makes retinal a more direct form of vitamin A for addressing fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, discoloration and other visible signs of aging.
Q: When should I start using retinal?
A: You can start at any age when you want to be more proactive about visible aging. It helps address fine lines, uneven texture, discoloration and changes in firmness, whether they’re just beginning or more established.
Q: Can retinal help with adult or hormonal breakouts?
A: Retinal can be a helpful addition when adult breakouts are a concern, because vitamin A supports healthy cell turnover and helps keep pores clear. It’s especially useful when breakouts come with fine lines, uneven texture or post-breakout marks. It doesn’t change the hormonal cause, but it can help with how those changes show up on the skin.
Q: How often should I use it?
A: If you’re new to retinal, start two to three evenings per week and gradually increase as your skin adjusts. Your ideal frequency depends on your skin’s tolerance.
Q: Will retinal make my skin peel?
A: Some dryness or light flaking is common in the first few weeks as skin adjusts, but you can keep it minimal. Start two to three nights a week, mist with Hydrate Facial Mist after applying, and use the “retinal sandwich” if you’re prone to dryness. Green Envee’s liposomal delivery is also designed to make retinal gentler on the skin.
Q: How can I keep my skin comfortable while it adjusts to retinal?
A: Hydration and barrier support make a big difference. Lira Clinical REGEN PDRN+ Serum helps support hydration, barrier function and recovery as skin adjusts, and Green Envee Nourish Replenishing Moisturizer adds rich moisture for the “retinal sandwich.” If skin feels dry or sensitive, take a night off and focus on hydration.
Q: Can I use it with Mandelic Resurfacing Serum or the Pumpkin Glycolic Peel?
A: Yes, as part of a well-planned routine. Use Mandelic in the morning or on different nights from Retinal, and once your skin is comfortable with both retinal and exfoliation, Retinal can follow your weekly Pumpkin Glycolic Peel. For more sensitive skin, use them on separate evenings.
