Accelerating Cell Turnover
Cell turnover is a naturally occurring process during which the outer layer of skin sheds dead cells and replaces them with new cells. As skin ages and turnover decreases, the cells heal more slowly from damage caused by free radicals, increasing the appearance of visible signs of aging.
Combat decreased cell turnover by incorporating retinol into your regimen. A powerful form of vitamin A, Retinol 0.5 stimulates turnover and supports collagen production, keeping skin smooth and radiant.Getting Started with Retinol
Retinols are a form of pure vitamin A, which is a powerful ingredient that stimulates cell turnover and collagen production to visibly improve discoloration, texture, and signs of aging. Because retinol stimulates such rapid cell renewal, irritation may occur at first for beginners. To improve the appearance of skin while reducing risk of irritation, gradually incorporate Retinol 0.5 into your routine.
