Dr Webster’s Recommendation: Retinol is considered the gold-standard anti-ageing ingredient by Dermatologists worldwide. I love the minimalist formulation that focuses on delivering a pure form of retinoic acid into the skin. The inclusion of calming ingredients balances the cosmetic acceptability of the formula, without making it less effective. Studies show that retinol not only helps to correct signs of ageing and pigmentation but it also helps oily, congested skins and reduces blemishes associated with problematic skin. You are advised to only use this product at night and to apply sunscreen during the day as retinol can cause some transient irritation to the skin and if unprotected from sun exposure, it can cause pigmentation.
