Product Information

Gluconolactone : A type of polyhydroxy acid that exfoliates more gently than an alpha hydroxy acid (e.g. glycolic and lactic acids). Gluconolactone is also a hydrating antioxidant ingredient with soothing properties. Microencapsulated Retinol (1.0%) : A vitamin A derivative and antioxidant that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improves texture and tone by strengthening skin, improving elasticity and increasing skin turnover. Retinol also targets blemish-prone skin by unclogging pores and enhances skin tone by reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation. Encapsulated retinol allows for a slow release into the skin overnight minimizing side effects, so you can enjoy all the benefits of retinol with little to no irritation! A mushroom used as an anti-aging ingredient in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for thousands of years. It is well-known for its ability to reduce the appearance of aging skin and boost collagen synthesis. Slow and steady wins the race when it comes to using retinoids, even over the counter versions like retinol. At Skin Pharmacy we create personlised regimes to take the guesswork out of retinol use, but the general rule of thumb goes like this.

He adds that he usually recommends, “applying your retinoid at night twice a week for the first week, then every other night for the next two weeks, graduating to nighty use by week four. This way your skin slowly gets used to the retinoic acid, and you should shed less and encounter less irritation as well.”
