๐ฌ How It Actually Works
Retinol forces your skin to act younger by shedding dead cells faster and producing fresh collagen. It is highly effective but requires a slow introduction to avoid peeling.
๐ Why your skin loves it
Fades dark spots, smooths wrinkles, treats persistent acne.
๐ก Pro Tip
Use strictly at night. Start 1x a week and slowly build up. Always wear SPF the next morning.
โ๏ธ Myth vs. Fact
Retinol works by exfoliating your skin.
It does not exfoliate. It works deep at a cellular level to speed up the rate your skin produces fresh cells. The peeling you experience is a side effect of irritation, not actual exfoliation.
