Powered by O’s V8 Peptide Complex, Retinal V8 Fusion is an advanced, corrective hybrid serum/hydrator designed to regulate, refine, smooth, strengthen and optimise skin function. Encapsulated 0.15% Retinaldehyde works to improve skin texture, firmness and tone while supporting collagen integrity and long-term skin longevity, making it ideal for aging, uneven skin tone, breakout-prone and sensitised skins. Multi-dimensional hydration, barrier-supporting lipids and calming actives balance and protect the skin, enhancing comfort, resilience and radiance. Skin is left smoother, firmer, hydrated and visibly more luminous with a refined, even complexion.

How It Works

Retinal V8 Fusion works by delivering a highly stable form of 0.15% Retinaldehyde through a biomimetic deep delivery system that mirrors the skin’s own lipid pathways. This allows gradual, targeted release where the skin needs it most, supporting cellular renewal, refined texture, normalised skin function and visible firmness without overwhelming the barrier. O’s V8 Peptide Complex supports skin longevity by protecting against environmental stressors and smoothing the appearance of lines and wrinkles while multi-dimensional 4D Hyaluronic Acid saturates all skin layers in moisture reinforcing barrier function and comfort. Calming L22 lipids and botanical complexes help maintain balance, making this formula ideal for daily use, long-term correction and sustained skin health.

Why A Corrective Serum Is Non-Negotiable

Corrective Serums are essential for achieving visible, targeted results. Concentrated actives in advanced delivery systems penetrate deeper layers of the skin to address varying concerns from hyperpigmentation, dehydration, signs of aging, inflammation, acne and more. By delivering ingredients directly where they are needed, O COSMEDICS Corrective Serums optimise cellular function, accelerate visible improvements and support long-term skin health, making them a vital step in every skincare routine.
