Designed for those ready to advance their retinoid routine, this night oil is creating a new gold-standard in anti-ageing skincare.

Inspired by natural healing and powered by science, this new retinoid night oil from Pestle + Mortar is going to be an essential step of your skincare routine.

If, like many of us, you’ve pledged to make mastering your skincare game a priority for the year, the introduction of a retinol product has been high on the agenda. However, navigating the world of retinol can be incredibly complex. There are so many varying strengths and formulations to choose from that it can feel overwhelming, and figuring out what works best in combination with one another can seem like double Dutch.

Thankfully, Pestle + Mortar are demystifying the process and making it as easy as possible. The Irish brand’s simplified two-product retinoid system is tailored to meet the needs of individuals at every stage of their retinoid journey and make using retinol easy.

Building on the success of Superstar, Pestle & Mortar’s introductory retinoid product, the brand new Superstar+ caters to evolving customer demands for higher retinol efficacy. Designed for individuals ready to advance their retinoid routine, Superstar+ harnesses the transformative power of 1% Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR).

Superstar+ completes the Pestle & Mortar retinoid system. Now, with Superstar and Superstar+ to choose from, both beginners and intermediate-level users can enjoy the benefits of this anti-ageing powerhouse. Inspired by the simplicity of Indian natural healing, Superstar+ is blended with tamanu, black cumin, and pomegranate seed oils to dramatically improve skin texture, tone, and clarity.

Designed to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and minimise dark spots, breakouts, and excess oiliness, the product helps achieve a more youthful, radiant skin tone and is perfect for those who have already seen success with retinoids or are looking to maintain results following a prescription-strength retinoid treatment.

So, what makes this product so special?

Superstar+ contains HPR, a powerhouse vitamin A derivative, at 1% strength. HPR effectively counteracts signs of photodamage and ageing, and its low potential for irritation makes it suitable for all skin types. The formulation is blended with a host of super-nourishing, anti-sebum, non-comedogenic natural oils to reset oil production and maintain balanced skin hydration.

Superstar+ combines potency with gentleness, making it ideal for intermediate-level retinol users looking to level up their vitamin A regimen, while Superstar is the beginner-friendly option, containing active retinoid at a 0.2% concentration that makes it the perfect choice for those prone to sensitivity, or trying vitamin A for the first time.

For more information about Superstar+, visit the Pestle + Mortar website, or visit them in-store at Kildare Village.
