WHAT IS RETINOL? WHAT DOES RETINOL DO?
Retinol is a derivative of Vitamin A, a key ingredient that is added to skin care with anti-aging benefits and clearing acne. Retinol improves skin appearance by increasing collagen production, exfoliating the skin, and unclogging pores. Retinol is both a tyrosinase inhibitor and a resurfacing agent shown to lift pigment that has already been interspersed into surrounding skin cells.
WHAT ARE RETINOIDS?
Retinoids, like all-trans retinol, is a powerful skin care ingredient that can also help stimulate collagen production and thicken the dermis to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines and restore youthful, clear, and supple-looking skin. However, not all retinoids are created equally. The type of retinoid, the concentration, and the manufacturing process directly affect the efficacy and result of the final product.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE? RETINOL VS. RETINOIDS
Retinoids are the broader term encompassing all vitamin A derivatives, including retinol. Both retinol and retinoids are shown to enhance collagen production in the dermis to help to decrease scarring, fine lines, and wrinkles, while also reducing redness and discoloration caused by acne for smoother, clearer, and more uniform skin tone and skin texture.
HOW DO I USE RETINOL? WHEN SHOULD I USE RETINOL?
It is recommended to apply retinol at night, during a nighttime skin care routine. Apply retinol every other evening for the first 1-2 weeks, then slowly increase usage, as tolerated, to 1-2 times daily. If irritation occurs, decrease the frequency of application to allow the skin greater time to acclimate. A broad-spectrum sunscreen is recommended while using this product. Use Marini SkinSolutions Broad-Spectrum Sunscreens to use with retinol products.
