Is retinal better than retinol for anti-aging?
Scientifically, yes. Retinal (retinaldehyde) is the direct precursor to retinoic acid, the form of Vitamin A that skin cells can actually use. Retinol, by contrast, requires a two-step conversion process. This single-step conversion makes Retinal act faster and more efficiently than retinol, delivering more potent anti-ageing and antibacterial benefits. Its lower irritation potential also makes it a superior choice for sensitive skin, delivering significant results without the common harshness associated with other retinoids. This is a truly advanced anti-aging retinal serum.
Does retinal help with post-inflammatory erythema (PIE)?
Absolutely. Retinal is highly effective at addressing post-inflammatory erythema (the persistent red or pink spots left after acne) and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (the brown spots). It works by accelerating cellular turnover, which helps to shed the discoloured cells more quickly. The formula is further enhanced with 3-O-Ethyl Ascorbic Acid (a stable form of Vitamin C) and Carnosine 2.0, which work to soothe micro-inflammation and brighten the complexion, making this an excellent serum to reduce PIE and PIH discoloration.
How to Maximize The Effects?
To achieve optimal results, apply a small amount of the serum in the evening to cleansed, completely dry skin, avoiding the delicate eye and mouth areas. When first introducing the product, use it every 3-4 days to build tolerance. After 30-40 minutes, you may follow with a rich, ceramide-based moisturiser to support the hydrolipidic barrier. Daily application of a high-protection sunscreen (SPF 50) is non-negotiable when using retinoids.
Is This Formula For You? Yes, If:

- You are concerned with fine lines, wrinkles, and a loss of skin firmness.
