Why Retinol?

When retinol and other retinoids come into contact with skin, enzymes in the body convert the retinol into retinoic acid, the active form of the vitamin. This is the unique ingredient that goes to work on skin cells in a variety of helpful ways. Namely, retinoic acid works to increase cell turnover, stimulate collagen and elastin production, fade hyperpigmentation, and help skin stay hydrated and glowing without irritation. Thanks to all this healthy turnover, retinol can treat and prevent everything from stubborn cystic acne and eczema to sun-induced wrinkles and dark spots. Dermaceutic’s Activ Serums have the highest percentage of retinol that is safe to use daily on the skin.

This unique combination of high performance actives makes this a very potent cocktail, and I promise you, it really works.

I must warn you that Retinol can irritate sensitive skin and you should not overdo it when you incorporate it in your skin care routine. It may be better to start off with a lower dose, and Dermaceutic’s Activ Retinol 0.5 is perfect as it is recommended for normal and sensitive skin.

Even though my skin is sensitive, I tend to be a little impatient and I can sometimes go a bit overboard. I started out with 1.0 and I applied it every day when I received it. That caused a bit of redness and a little peeling (nothing major), so I toned it down and used it every second day. My skin got used to it very quickly and I now use it once a day.

Result: smoother, brighter and more even-toned skin. Really. I noticed positive results within the first 10 days of using this serum.

I am running low and I dread the moment this gorgeous bottle runs dry. It really is worth every single cent.

Dermaceutic Activ Retinol 1.0 retails for R924.

Well done on yet another stellar product Dermaceutic.
