Retinol Products are touted as one of the most effective treatments for a variety of skin problems. Part of the wider family of Vitamin A, a number of clinical benefits for Retinol have been discovered. With similar effects to the prescription-only Tretinoin, Retinol comes with much less risk of redness, soreness, and irritation, and is available over the counter.
Having demonstrated positive results for use treating acne and psoriasis, the most impressive results are seen when used to combat signs of ageing. Working by thickening the epidermal layer of the skin, a number of studies have pointed to its effectiveness as an anti-ageing tool.
We’ve already covered the Science of Retinol, as well as how to incorporate it into your skincare routine in more detail. In this article, we cover the Top 10 Best Retinol Products.
