What is retinol and how does it work?
A pure and active derivative of Vitamin A, retinol stimulates skin cells. Use of retinol has also been shown to stimulate new collagen production. Retinol is one of the few substances with a small enough to penetrate the outer layers of the skin and work to repair the lower layers of the skin where collagen and elastin reside. Skin will appear smoother, softer, pores will appear smaller and less noticeable, and signs of aging will begin to diminish. Retinol in its purest form will give your skin the most anti-aging, acne-fighting, and skin smoothing benefits possible. The increased cell turnover caused by retinol has also been shown to be particularly helpful on acne patients. The skin exfoliation unclogs pores and helps fade acne scars.
