An ingredient that offers dual action repair is the best way to describe this tried-and-true complexion perfector. Since vitamin A is an antioxidant, retinoids boast the ability to neutralise free radicals (compounds created by environmental stressors like pollution, smoke, and UV) before they damage the body’s cells, resulting in visible signs of skin ageing – think sagging, wrinkles, dullness, hyperpigmentation and more.

Microencapsulated Retinol (0.2%) : 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, which minimizes side effects so you can enjoy all the benefits of retinol with little to no irritation!

Go slowly with how often you use your retinoid too,” says Metwally, whose favourite retinols are the ZO Skin Health Radical Night Repair and the Skinbetter Science AlphaRet Overnight Cream. 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.”

Not only that, but retinoids also flood the skin with retinoic acid. “Prescription retinoids like tretinoin are concentrated forms of active retinoic acid, while over the counter topical retinol converts into retinoic acid within the skin once applied. This makes prescription grade retinols more potent than retinol, but with people often finding retinol more tolerable and comfortable to use, this is no bad thing,” explains Metwally. With all those benefits it’s no wonder that the Skin Pharmacy team recommend adding a retinoid to your skincare arsenal in your mid to late 20’s (unless you have acne in which case you can use it sooner). “That's when cell turnover starts slowing down, as does collagen production, which leads to dullness, dryness, and the onset of lines and wrinkles,” says Metwally. Our Retinol Skin Repair Time-Reverse Night Moisturiser is designed to work at night, when the skin is most receptive to repair, by slowly releasing encapsulated retinol into the skin, which aims to balance the skin tone and diminish the signs of lines and wrinkles, replacing dull complexions with brighter and plumper skin. The addition of Vitamin E ensures beautifully moisturised skin by morning.
