A powerful cocktail of antioxidants combine with Vitamin A to diminish fine lines, wrinkles, and premature aging due to sun exposure. While retinol works to reduce telltale signs
of aging, it also treats �acne-ridden skin. Vitamin A boasts a long list of clinically proven restorative, anti-aging, and youthening properties. This result oriented formulation will fight free radical damage as well as restore and renew firmness, elasticity, and thickness to the skin.
Vitamin A has a molecular structure that�s tiny enough to get into the lower layers of skin where it finds collagen and elastin and activates them. Vitamin A is proven to improve mottled pigmentation, fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, skin tone, color, as well as your skin�s hydration levels.
Adult acne is common, affecting 50 percent
of women. Dealing with both aging and acenic skin can be particularly
distressing. Fortunately, because of retinol�s exfoliating benefits, it
can help treat acne. That�s because dead skin cells can clog pores and
contribute to acne. By getting rid of dead skin cells, retinol improves
and prevents breakouts.
Retinol is less irritating than retinoids. Also a vitamin A
derivative.

Does your skin need a boost? Does it suffer from fine lines and
wrinkles? Retinol formulas can help! Here�s why retinol is an effective
age-reducer, leading to more youthful, healthier skin.
Top 5 Ways Retinol Can Improve Your Skin.
~
Retinol rejuvenates the skin. This vitamin A derivative helps skin
produce collagen, a natural component of the dermis that gives skin its
youthful, full appearance. According to a 2007 study, published in The
Archives of Dermatology, 36 participants age 80 and older applied a
formula with 0.4 percent retinol to one arm up to three times a week.
After 24 weeks, these participants had dramatic improvements in their
skin that were �clearly visible to the naked eye,� reports dermatologist
Leslie Baumann, M.D., on her Yahoo! blog, The Skin Guru. Also, �skin
biopsies revealed that the treated arm had more of the building blocks
that make skin smooth and resilient than the untreated arm,� Leesa
Suzman writes about the study in Good Housekeeping.
~ Retinol gives skin an overall healthier appearance.
~ Retinol can help
reduce discoloration, fine lines, wrinkles and skin texture. Plus, it
can improve skin tone and color for generally younger-looking, even
skin.
~ Retinol stimulates cell turnover. Exfoliating is essential for
youthful-looking, healthy skin. By removing dead skin cells, new,
healthier cells are able to come through. Your complexion also looks
smoother and products are able to sink deep into the skin. This way,
your skin can effectively absorb potent ingredients. With a pile of dead
skin cells on your face, products have a tough time penetrating this
top layer and can�t work.
~ Retinol addresses acne. While retinol works to reduce telltale signs
of aging, it also treats �acne-ridden skin,� dermatologist Heidi A.
Waldorf. M.D., tells Allure. Adult acne is common, affecting 50 percent
of women. Dealing with both aging and acenic skin can be particularly
distressing. Fortunately, because of retinol�s exfoliating benefits, it
can help treat acne. That�s because dead skin cells can clog pores and
contribute to acne. By getting rid of dead skin cells, retinol improves
and prevents breakouts.
Retinol is less irritating than retinoids. Also a vitamin A
derivative, retinoids are only available by prescription from your
dermatologist. Retinoids are also more irritating to the skin with
potential side effects like peeling and redness. Retinol is gentler
because it gradually converts to retinoic acid, which is the active
ingredient in prescription treatments. Some people simply can�t tolerate
retinoids. So retinol is ideal for those individuals along with anyone
with sensitive or easily irritated skin and those trying retinoids for
the first time. Plus, retinol can pave the way to retinoids, because it
helps your skin get used to retinoic acid.
