What is Retinol?

Retinol is a derivative of Vitamin A which is a key component for skin cell regeneration. It is found in several foods, such as carrots, mangoes and sweet potatoes! While it is important to consume vitamin and antioxidant rich foods, adding in topical retinol into your skincare routine will result in more immediate results.

Which Retinol Should I Use?

There is a misconception that retinol is an incredibly aggressive ingredient that only those with thick and resilient skin types can use. While some prescription grade retinols can be very harsh for some, there is a new generation of highly effective over the counter retinols that still respect the skin barrier!
