Retinol is a member of the retinoid family of vitamin A. Retinol’s should be applied directly after cleansing the skin and are best for evening application as they are sensitive to sunlight so will not work as well if applied during the day. Retinol’s are a gold standard of skincare to introduce in your twenties. They can help rebuild collagen, fade hyper-pigmentation, smooth and resurface skin appearance, balance oil and soften fine lines and wrinkles.
