Retinol needs two conversion steps before it becomes retinoic acid in the skin, while retinal is only one step away. It is thought to convert to retinoic acid around ten times faster than retinol, which makes it a very efficient member of the vitamin A family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce converted, retinal helps skin cells to produce more collagen and other structural elements, so the skin looks firmer, bouncier and more elastic. It also speeds up the renewal of the upper skin layers, helping the complexion to appear smoother, more even and refined.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 128, 0);\"\u003e6-6.5pH | 0.05% Retinal | Allantoin + Biosaccharide Gum-1\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"desc_col_title desc_col_bignum\"\u003eIn terms of strength and knowledge, we would compare our 0.05% Retinal serum to a mid-strength Retinol product (typically in the 0.2-0.5% range), but with less irritation potential and possibly quicker results. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant to know how the Retinal is stabilized in the formula?

Based on our experience, it dissipates on the skin and does not leave a yellow tint on surfaces. If you still experience residual color, you can minimise it by leaving time for the product to fully absorb \u0026amp; using a moisturiser on top.
