Why Retinal Is Replacing Retinol In Skincare

Retinal, a vitamin A derivative, is faster and more efficient than retinol, boosting collagen, smoothing fine lines, improving texture, and controlling acne. Unlike retinol, it needs fewer conversion steps, showing results sooner. Beginners should start slowly, use small amounts, moisturise well, avoid strong acids, and apply sunscreen, as overuse can cause irritation.
