Retinol 101: How to Use Retinol, Choose the Right Type, and Incorporate Into Your Routine

Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, is a powerful ingredient renowned for its anti-aging and skin rejuvenating properties. Often dubbed as a miracle ingredient, it is revered in the skincare industry for its ability to drastically improve the health and appearance of the skin. The profound effects of retinol stem from its ability to stimulate cellular turnover, leading to the production of new, healthier skin cells.
