Did you know that retinol, essential for growth and vision, can’t be synthesized by your body? You must get it from your diet! 🌿🥕
Retinoids are popular in cosmetics due to their benefits, but they have some issues. They are unstable and can quickly oxidize in sunlight, reducing their effectiveness.
Despite their benefits, not all topical retinoids work equally well. The form, concentration, and storage all affect how well a retinoid works on the skin.
It’s important to note the difference between “absorption” (entering the bloodstream) and “skincare penetration” (reaching deeper skin layers through the stratum corneum).
