[Lifestyle] 91/5000 What is retinol? How does it work? All the keys and the best serum to start using it

[G h o s t l y.]

 

What is retinol? The answer is simple and increasingly needed: retinol is the asset of the moment in the beauty world and that everyone talks about when choosing treatments to end wrinkles. And it is not only one of the most studied and endorsed by science, but also one of the most effective against aging.

"Retinol is presented as the only molecule used in cosmetics capable of eliminating deep wrinkles", they explain to us from Segle Clinical. And they add: “It is much more than an anti-aging asset. Thanks to its capacity for cell renewal, we can speak of an asset that transforms the skin ”. And the secret is in its size. Being a very small molecule, it has a great penetration capacity thanks to which it reaches the deepest layers of the skin and where it has the power to affect collagen and elastin, the proteins that firm and support our skin.
 

However, although its power is more than clear, there are still many doubts about its use and application. So "how is retinol applied?" is the question that is repeated the most. This is because, for it to achieve the desired effect, the skin must get used to it before using it daily. And that is why the brand specialized in facial serums Segle Clinical has opted for the perfect ally to subject the skin to a retinization process that helps us achieve it and has created the perfect serum to start with.



 

Tinolvital: the star retinol serum
It is called Tinolvital and its success is based on the use of the least irritating form of the derivatives of the active derivative of vitamin A: retinol palmitate at a concentration of 3%. What it achieves is a much greater tolerance than the usual formulas and being suitable for use on any type of skin, avoiding any type of irritation. For this reason, as several pharmacists have described it, "it is the ideal serum to start with retinoids, especially if you have sensitive skin."
 

If it works the same, the answer is yes. But, in case there are doubts, what is retinol for?

1. Renews and rejuvenates the skin: deeply exfoliates reducing the most superficial layers of dead cells of the epidermis.

2. Improves its firmness and elasticity: stimulating the formation of collagen and elasticity and protecting the existing ones.

3. It acts as an anti-blemish: it unifies the tone and provides luminosity by reducing the activity of melanocytes (which are the cells in charge of pigmenting the skin).

4. Improves the texture of combination, oily and acne-prone skin: it is a perfected powerful active ingredient that reduces sebum secretion and improves the appearance of pores.

5. It works as a powerful antioxidant.

 

How to use?
Although it is its less aggressive formula, it is advisable to start using it every other night to check how our skin reacts. If you do it in a positive way, proceed normally daily and with a long duration, as this product is presented in 30 ml format:

- Apply three to four drops on the clean skin of the face, massaging gently until completely absorbed.

- Wait a few minutes for it to finish absorbing before applying other treatments.

- Remove well in the morning and apply SPF before going out to avoid unwanted stains.
