Retinols

Retinol is a fat-soluble Vitamin A derivative, part of the retinoid family, and a gold-standard ingredient recommended by dermatologists for its exceptional anti-ageing and skin-repairing properties. It works through a conversion pathway to create retinoic acid, which helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation while improving skin texture and reducing acne. Retinol also normalizes skin function and promotes an even skin tone. Though less potent than prescription-strength formulas, it offers moderate strength with fewer side effects. Encapsulated Retinol formulations ensure slow absorption, minimising irritation. Use at night with sunscreen during the day, and avoid it uring pregnancy or lactation.
