Encapsulated Retinal Body Cream for Firming, Smoothing & Stretch Mark Renewal

The Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment 5 fl oz is a high-performance body cream formulated to firm, lift and smooth body skin while targeting trouble zones like crepey texture, dimpled skin and stretch marks. Leveraging encapsulated retinal (a potent form of vitamin A) alongside squalane, shea butter and avocado extract, it works to boost collagen, enhance elasticity and deeply hydrate for a satiny finish. Its lightweight yet luxurious texture glides on without stickiness, allowing the skin to feel softened and visibly more refined. Designed for body use, it is ideal where skin may feel lax, rough or marked by uneven tone.

From the dermatologist-founded brand Murad®, this body treatment specifically addresses skin concerns including sagging body skin, visible cellulite, stretch marks and loss of firmness. Clinical testing indicates visible lifting and tightening in 4 weeks, and a reduction in the appearance of stretch marks in 8 weeks. Suitable for balanced, oily, combination or dry body skin types, it supports daily use for improved tone and texture across arms, thighs, abdomen and other areas of concern. The brand also highlights an “exercise-mimicking” blend of exerkine-inspired extracts (milk thistle + bearberry) to enhance skin metabolism and tone.

Who it’s best for: Body skin showing sagging, crepey texture, cellulite dimples or stretch marks
What makes it different: Encapsulated retinal technology for body-use plus rich hydrators in a non-sticky cream

How To Use Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment

AM or PM: Massage treatment over body, concentrating on areas of concern such as arms, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, hips.
If using in the morning, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen after use.
For first-time users: reduce frequency if sensitivity occurs and gradually build to nightly or daily use.

FAQs

Can I use this while pregnant or nursing?
The brand does not provide explicit pregnancy or nursing guidance for this product; please consult your physician before use.

Can I use this with retinol/retinal/acid exfoliants?
Yes — this body treatment contains encapsulated retinal (a form of vitamin A); if you also use face retinol or strong exfoliants, monitor skin tolerance and introduce gradually.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
The product is formulated for balanced, oily, combination and dry body skin types and targets sagging or textured areas. Those with very reactive or compromised skin should patch test and reduce frequency if sensitivity appears.

The brand reports lifting and tightening effects in 4 weeks, and a reduction in stretch-mark appearance in 8 weeks (study included 34 participants).

Can I use it around the eyes?
This is a body-treatment product—not designed specifically for the eye area; avoid direct eye contact.

People Also Ask

Is Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment good for acne-prone skin?
While the formula focuses on firming and smoothing body texture rather than acne, the completed hydrating effect and non-greasy feel may suit body skin recovering from treatments; it is not specifically marketed for acne control.

Can you use Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment every day?
Yes — daily use is appropriate for body areas of concern. On sensitive skin or during initial use, start 3–4 times weekly and increase as tolerated.

Does Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment work under makeup?
As a body cream, it is designed for arms, thighs, abdomen, etc., rather than face-makeup layering; however, the satiny finish means it layers well under clothing without stickiness.

How long does a jar of Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment last?
The brand lists a 5 fl oz size; longevity depends on frequency and amount used—larger body-area use may mean several weeks of nightly use.

Is Murad Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment fragrance-free / oil-free?
The product contains “Fragrance (Parfum)” and includes emollients such as shea butter and avocado extract, so it is not fragrance-free or oil-free per se.
