La Roche-Posay Laboratories has developed a new formula with a powerful anti-aging ingredient – retinol. If you are already familiar with the problem of wrinkles, age spots, and in general, your skin has something to deal with, read this article.

How Retinol Works

Retinol (vitamin A) is still one of the most effective molecules for correcting the signs of skin aging. Its main trump card is the ability to have a powerful renewing effect.

Result?

  • Lightening pigment spots.

  • Reducing the depth of wrinkles.

  • Smoothing the surface of the skin.

  • Reduced visibility of pores.

  • Reduced oiliness of the skin.

  • Increasing the moisture content.

  • Softness and smoothness of the skin.

Who needs retinol

Retinol is considered primarily as an anti-aging ingredient, however, since it has a renewing effect, it is also appreciated by owners of oily and problem skin, which is characterized by hyperkeratosis, that is, thickening of the epidermis, which is caused by delayed cell exfoliation.

By the way, the first success came to retinol as an ingredient in products for acne-prone skin.

Retinol is not in vain one of the five most effective anti-aging ingredients.

Cosmetics with retinol should pay attention to those who complain about:

  • dullness of the skin;

  • hyperpigmentation;

  • wrinkles;

  • enlarged pores.

In short, retinol products effectively combat the manifestations of photoaging.

Features of retinol

In general, products with retinol have a beneficial effect on the skin, however, due to its activity, this ingredient can cause a certain reaction:

  • redness;

  • active peeling;

  • burning.

In addition, retinol does not combine well with the sun: the component increases the skin’s sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation. For this reason, home cosmetics with retinol are classified as night-time and require subsequent mandatory skin protection from the sun during the day.

Due to the activity of this component in home cosmetics, the concentration of retinol in corrective anti-aging products is on average 0,3%. At the same time, manufacturers are constantly working to reduce the risk of side effects while maintaining the effectiveness of the product.
