Retinol in Skin Care Products

Retinol is added to skin care products because it helps to speed up the skin renewal process, and it’s successful at reducing the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and age spots.

Using Retinol for The First Time

Everyone's skin reacts differently to retinol, therefore, starting out you should use is sporadically, and in small amounts. Use the product, then wait a few days to see how your skin is going to react. Some people experience temporary redness, flakiness, peeling, and sensitivity. Fortunately, after time the skin becomes more compatible with retinol which is when you’ll begin to see its true benefits.
