Did You Know
Did You Know?
The Retinol ingredient used in our formula is a Pure Retinol; this is the purest form of retinol available over-the-counter. It converts in skin to retinoic acid to target skin concerns. Retinol derivatives – these forms (e.g. retinyl palmitate, retinal) are retinol esters that require several conversion steps to become retinoic acid in skin. The conversion causes a loss of potency. Retinol Alternatives – these ingredients, such as bakuchiol, phytomimetic vitamin A and granactive, are not retinol, but can help to address some of the same concerns as retinol. These can take longer to work than Pure Retinol.
