How to use retinol and retinoids properly, as shared by beauty expert Larry Yeo
All skin types are beneficial for retinoid usage. It is finding the right brand that your skin reacts well to – is the focus.So let's get down to business: retinol – alongside retinoid esters and retinal – are basically derivatives of retinoid, which our body needs for creating new cells. Retinol is found in beauty and dermatologic products to promote collagen production, skin renewal, and reduce acne.Retinoid is the family group, and are a class of compounds that derive from vitamin A.
Some retinoids can be found in over-the-counter beauty products but some powerful ones can be found in oral form. The stronger-performing retinoic acid has to be prescribed by a doctor, but Differin is one exception., another retinoid that reduces inflammation and unclogs blocked pores by regulating cell renewal," Yeo added. However, it shouldn't be used as a spot treatment to treat a single pimple.
"Let me bring this up – STORAGE is also important. Most brands and retail outlets are aware of storage issues and most formulations are stable. DO NOT BUY from the grey market or parallel importers because their storage will affect retinoids' stability."
