The right retinol product for you

Need a little anti-ageing? Try this lightweight Skinstitut Retinol Serum gel with peptides, encapsulated retinol and olive extract to encourage cell renewal and enhance the overall appearance of the skin.

L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Night Cream contains pro-retinol, a powerful anti-wrinkle agent to stimulate regeneration and elastin to replenish the skin’s depleted supply.

Suitable for normal and combo skin types, this intensive skin renewal, Neostrata Renewal Cream With Pro-Retinol, will reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pore size, relieve sun damage and clarify oily skin.

The entrapped form of retinol in Obagi 360 Retinol 0.5 is gradually released, refining the complexion and smoothing the look of skin texture.

Easy on the delivery, this Indeed Laboratories Retinol Reface treatment has a form of retinol that claims to deliver results without skin irritation or discomfort. Your skin will be smoother, clearer and healthier-looking.

Give yourself visibly firmer skin with a formula containing both slow-release and pure retinol like La Roche-Posay Redermic R, which works to diminish fine lines and wrinkles.

Ideal as a first retinol, SkinMedica Retinol Complex .25 is suitable for all skin types, even sensitive. It’s formulated to combat signs of premature ageing and renew the skin’s tone and texture without irritating it.

Ultraceuticals Ultra A 
Skin Perfecting Serum Mild is a milder serum that will plump the skin while refining and improving the appearance of its clarity, texture, hyperpigmentation and imperfections.

Get the works – brighter-looking, smooth, firm skin
 – with a cream like DMK Revise-A that protects against free radical damage and has lactic acid and vitamin A derivatives to optimise cell turnover.

If you want 0.5 per cent retinol, the clever technology in Dermalogica Overnight Retinol Repair allows for a controlled-release delivery system, which enables deeper penetration and optimal results.
