New To Retinol? These Creams Are Perfect For Beginners

Beauty Skincare
By Sherryl Cheong on 26 Jun 2023

If you are interested in achieving younger-looking skin, you’ve probably heard of the wonders of retinol, a form of vitamin A that is widely considered the gold standard in anti-wrinkle skincare. It is known to increase cell turnover and stimulate collagen production, which in turn reduces the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture. Despite the many benefits of retinol, many people are still generally wary about introducing it into their regimens because some formulas result in harsh side effects like dryness and irritation. 

This is precisely why Neutrogena’s latest Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Range is perfect for those of you who are still on the fence about the ingredient. It comprises three products: a day cream, an eye cream, and a night moisturiser. Their formulas are suitable for all skin types and contain a uniquely stabilised retinol formulation that is delivered slowly within the skin’s surface, minimising the potential for irritation. The creams are also formulated with myrtus communis extract and hyaluronic acid, which work to boost retinol efficacy and provide hydration.

In fact, they are so gentle that even beginners can use them every alternate day before transitioning to a daily application. That’s saying a lot because when it comes to run-of-the-mill retinol products, dermatologists typically advise users to apply them once a week before increasing the frequency. 

Read on to find out what sets one product apart from the other!
