Dr Dennis Gross Advanced Retinol Plus Ferulic Intense Wrinkle Cream is a unisex facial moisturizer formulated with a combination of retinol and ferulic acid. Retinol, a vitamin A derivative, supports the skin’s natural cell turnover process, which may help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time. Ferulic acid, a plant-derived antioxidant, works to neutralize environmental stressors that contribute to premature aging. The cream also includes other stabilizing ingredients such as peptides and ceramides to support the skin barrier and maintain hydration.

This product is designed for individuals seeking a targeted approach to addressing visible signs of aging, particularly moderate to deep wrinkles on the face and neck. The texture is a rich, emollient cream that spreads evenly and absorbs without excessive greasiness. It is suitable for normal, dry, and combination skin types, though those with very sensitive skin may wish to introduce it gradually, as retinol can initially cause mild irritation in some individuals. A patch test is recommended before full application.

The formula is fragrance-free and dermatologist-tested, focusing on efficacy through scientifically recognized anti-aging components rather than added scents or dyes. The 2 oz (57 g) jar provides a supply for regular nightly use. For optimal results, apply a small amount to cleansed skin after serum, avoiding the eye area. Use sunscreen during the day, as retinol may increase photosensitivity. This cream is best for those who already have some tolerance to retinol or are ready to incorporate a more intensive wrinkle treatment into their routine.
