To encourage cell turnover, increase skin elasticity and reduce trans-epidermal water loss. Retinol is the gold standard in anti-aging, but it’s typically deactivated by sunlight. This antioxidant-infused hit of Retinal (a Vitamin A that’s a more powerful form of Retinol) can be used both day and night and is not denatured by the sun. This product also contains a powerful booster Bakuchiol that sloughs away dead skin cells and stimulates collagen production – helping to reduce the appearance of hyper-pigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles.
Use as a booster then layer with PM Treatment Moisturiser.
