Question 1

What is bio-retinol and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Bio-retinol is a plant-derived alternative to traditional retinol that delivers the same skin-renewing benefits - smoother texture, improved elasticity, and reduced signs of aging - without the irritation, peeling, or photosensitivity associated with synthetic retinoids. OLAMIC's bio-retinol is derived from Chlorella Vulgaris, a nutrient-dense microalgae, and delivered through a patent-pending encapsulation system that controls release for deeper absorption and maximum efficacy.

Question 2

How is the Retin-Algae Body Butter different from a regular retinol product?

Accepted Answer

Most retinol products are formulated for the face and can cause dryness, redness, and peeling - especially on body skin, which is thicker, more exposed, and slower to regenerate. The Retin-Algae Body Butter uses a patent-pending bio-retinoid from Chlorella Vulgaris at 2%, encapsulated for controlled release. This means retinol-like results across the full body, daily, with no downtime, no sun restrictions, and no adjustment period. It is also alcohol-free, paraben-free, gluten-free, vegan, and free from heavy metals.

Question 3

When will I see results from the Retin-Algae Body Butter?

Accepted Answer

You will notice immediate hydration from the first application. Increased and lasting hydration builds over 72 hours with consistent use. Peak improvements in skin texture, firmness, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles are typically visible at 56 days. Results are cumulative - the longer you use it, the more your skin transforms.

Question 4

Is the Retin-Algae Body Butter safe for sensitive skin?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Retin-Algae Body Butter was formulated specifically to be gentle enough for daily full-body use, including for those with sensitive or reactive skin. It is free from alcohol, parabens, synthetic retinoids, heavy metals, and gluten. The bio-retinol is encapsulated to prevent irritation, and the certified organic base - including Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice and Shea Butter - actively supports the skin barrier.

Question 5

How do I use the Retin-Algae Body Butter for best results?

Accepted Answer

Apply to damp skin immediately after showering, when the skin barrier is most receptive. Massage in slow, upward strokes from feet to neck. For targeted concerns - crepey skin, neck lines, rough texture - apply twice daily. For general use, once daily is sufficient. One 6.7 oz jar typically lasts 4–6 weeks with full-body daily use.

Question 6

What are the hero ingredients in the Retin-Algae Body Butter?

Accepted Answer

The formula centres on three key actives: Chlorella Vulgaris Extract (patent-pending bio-retinoid for cell turnover and firmness), Saccharide Isomerate (skin-identical hydrator that bonds to skin proteins for lasting moisture), and Sodium Hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid for immediate and deep hydration). These are supported by certified organic Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, certified organic Shea Butter, Grape Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, certified organic Goji Berry Extract, Green Tea Leaf Extract, and a blend of pure essential oils including Jasmine, Chamomile, Lavender, and Vanilla.

Question 7

Is the Retin-Algae Body Butter safe to use during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

The Retin-Algae Body Butter uses bio-retinol, a plant-derived alternative to synthetic retinoids, and does not contain traditional retinol or retinoic acid. The formula is free from parabens, alcohol, heavy metals, and synthetic retinoids. However, as with any active skincare product, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Question 8

What makes OLAMIC different from other body care brands?

Accepted Answer

OLAMIC was built around a single conviction: body skin deserves the same clinical intelligence as facial skin. The Retin-Algae Body Butter is powered by a patent-pending bio-retinoid derived from Chlorella Vulgaris microalgae, delivered through a proprietary encapsulation system that has never been diluted below its clinically tested level. Every active ingredient is incorporated at its efficacious dose. The formula is certified organic at its base, safety tested, vegan, gluten-free, alcohol-free, and heavy metal free - packaged in a glass jar with a 50% post-consumer recycled cap and an FSC-certified box.
