Retinol is one ingredient that should be a part of every good nighttime skincare regimen. Unlike most anti-ageing ingredients, retinol has been extensively studied in clinical trials for both efficacy and safety.
Retinol is a form of Vitamin A that causes skin cells to turn over more rapidly, increasing collagen in the process. It is effective in reversing sun damage, fighting acne, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, banishing hyperpigmentation and shrinking pores.
It is therefore no surprise that retinol comes recommended by nearly every dermatologist on the planet.
For results-driven skin pampering, one cannot go wrong with the Retinol Fresh Skin Treatment from Skin Design London, a boutique cosmeceutical skincare range.
It is an intensive, spa-strength anti-ageing retinol cream in a gel consistency, infused with five skin-boosting ingredients to improve cell turnover and restore collagen production. It promises to retexturise the skin, as well as reduce breakouts, pigmentation, dullness, lines and wrinkles in order to create a smoother, younger-looking skin.
It is cleverly formulated with a host of anti-ageing, hydrating and regenerating ingredients, as well as intelligent irritation-reducing additives.
The gentle yet effective formula may be used daily and boasts a cocktail of high-performing ingredients such as:
- Retinol: Stimulates cell regeneration and minimises fine lines and dullness to boost youthful radiance.
- Palmitoyl Tripeptide 3: Mimics collagen production and combats age-related loss of elasticity.
- 3% Hyaluronic Acid: Boosts moisturisation to keep the skin plump, hydrated and youthful.
- Aloe vera, green tea and rosehip blend: This redness-reducing blend soothes the skin whilst reducing potential inflammation and irritation.
- Siberian ginseng root: Revitalises skin cells and further reduces inflammation.
- LexFeel® N350: A deep-impact moisturiser for cushiony skin.
- CellActive complex: Unites Vitamin B3, watercress extract and zinc to help brighten the complexion by inhibiting melanin production.
- Kudzu Zymbiozome Fermentum: A powerful antioxidant from the pea flower that promotes collagen synthesis for improved skin tone.
The cream is formulated with no parabens.
Although I have used retinol for decades, this potent powerhouse treatment cream has become a must-have for my daily regimen.
Amongst the results from adding this powerful retinol product to my routine are: smoother texture, less noticeable pore size, some reduction of fine lines and an overall refining of the skin. I would also give it bonus points for its healthy dose of hydrating hyaluronic acid. The gel-like consistency makes it effortless to spread across the skin and it absorbs very well.
Transformative and cutting-edge, the Retinol by Skin Design London is a miracle worker that takes skincare to the next level.
