Few skincare ingredients have the name recognition of retinol, but understanding how to use it is just as important as choosing the product.
Retinol is a form of vitamin A widely used in topical skincare. It is associated with improvements in skin texture, renewal, uneven tone, clogged pores and the visible appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Why are there different strengths?
Skin tolerance varies. Stronger does not automatically mean better for everyone. Begin gradually and always follow the directions for the specific product you are using, because concentrations and formulations differ.
What should you expect?
Dryness, flaking or irritation can occur when introducing retinol. Adjust use according to tolerance and keep the rest of the regimen supportive: gentle cleansing, appropriate hydration, barrier support and daily sun protection.
Retinol and sunscreen belong together
Use SPF 30 or higher daily, since retinol can increase sun sensitivity. REGENYXIA provides complementary routine options such as Gentle Barrier Cleanser, Triple Peptide Repair Serum, Recovery Cream and Hydrating Defense Cream.
