What Does Retinol Do for Your Skin?

Retinol is the most proven anti-ageing ingredient in skincare on the market. A form of vitamin A, it speeds up skin cell turnover and boosts collagen, which over time softens the look of fine lines, refines texture and evens out tone. It's also genuinely effective for congestion and blemishes. The trade-off is that it takes patience and a careful introduction - but few ingredients deliver such visible, well-documented results.

How to Use Retinol

Retinol is a night-time step - apply after cleansing, before moisturiser, and always wear SPF the next day. The CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum is an ideal starting point, buffering retinol with ceramides to keep the barrier comfortable. Start low and slow - two or three nights a week, building up as your skin adjusts - and expect a little dryness at first as skin acclimatises. Keep in mind thought, if irritation is occurs, you must stop using it immediately!
