Retinol

Retinol and its derivatives (like retinyl palmitate and retinaldehyde) are vitamin A-based ingredients that boost cell turnover, reduce fine lines, fade dark spots, and improve skin texture. They’re powerful tools for anti-aging and acne-prone skin.

Disclaimer: Retinol can cause dryness, peeling, redness, and increased sun sensitivity—especially during initial use. Not recommended for sensitive skin, pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Start slowly (2–3 times a week), use at night, and always follow with SPF in the morning. Patch test first to check for reactions.
