Vitamin A

Vitamin A commonly refers to retinoids, a group of different molecules with powerful effects on skin led by retinol (vitamin A1). The type of retinoid you will find in our Vitamin A Treatment Cream is Retinyl Palmitate, which is the most abundant form of retinol esters naturally present in our skin. Retinyl palmitate is also very gentle and stable, which means it is totally safe and does not provoke harsh irritation when applied to the skin. This topical retinoid is especially known for its preventing and treating properties against premature signs of aging like wrinkles and fine lines as it promotes skin cell proliferation and improves collagen synthesis. Furthermore, since it boosts cell renewal, it is very helpful to reduce breakouts and improve dull and uneven skin tones.
