The technology

How ZO-RDS™ delivers real retinol

Diagram of the ZO-RDS retinol liposome: retinol molecules in a hydrated core, wrapped in a phospholipid bilayer with an outer stabilizer layer
The ZO-RDS™ liposome. Diagram: ZO Skin Health.
  • Stabilizer layer

    Shields the retinol from oxidation and light.

  • Phospholipid bilayer

    Mirrors the structure of skin's own lipids.

  • Lipid vesicle interior

    A hydrated core that keeps the vesicle intact and supports controlled release.

  • Encapsulated retinol

    Retinol molecules held in the core for stability, efficacy and controlled delivery.

Two depthsDeeper for wrinkles, shallower for pigment
Slow releaseGradual, to keep irritation down
Better uptakeCloser to where retinol works
Stays stableProtected from oxidation

Common questions

About the formula

Can I use it with other acne products?

Check with your provider first if you use benzoyl peroxide, other salicylic acid products, topical antibiotics or oral isotretinoin.

When should I avoid using it?

Avoid excessive sun exposure, and don't apply it to irritated or compromised skin or straight after a peel, laser or other aggressive treatment.

Is it right for me?

If you're new to retinol, pregnant or breastfeeding, or using prescription skincare, ask us at checkout or book a complimentary consultation first.
