Skin Pharmacy Retinol Skin Repair Day Moisturiser

Product Information

iS Clinical's highly active, fast-acting Retinol+ Emulsion 0.3 is a mildly keratolytic formula featuring a Retinol of botanical origin that is encapsulated with bio-identical lipids, Phosphatidylcholine, and Triglycerides. Slow and steady wins the race when it comes to using retinoids, even over the counter versions like retinol. At Skin Pharmacy we create personlised regimes to take the guesswork out of retinol use, but the general rule of thumb goes like this. MATRIXYL™ Synthe'6 : Derived from a peptide naturally found in collagen and laminins, MATRIXYL™ Synthe'6™ is a tripeptide that strengthens the skin and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, in whatever form, retinoic acid speeds up cell turnover, boosts collagen and elastin production, inhibits melanin production and regulates sebum production too. “Resulting in a reduction in breakouts, pore size appearance, hyperpigmentation, plus lines and wrinkles, and an improvement in skin texture, and overall radiance,” adds Metwally. Go slowly with how often you use your retinoid too,” says Metwally, whose favourite retinols are the ZO Skin Health Radical Night Repair and the Skinbetter Science AlphaRet Overnight Cream. He adds that he usually recommends, “applying your retinoid at night twice a week for the first week, then every other night for the next two weeks, graduating to nighty use by week four. This way your skin slowly gets used to the retinoic acid, and you should shed less and encounter less irritation as well.”

Come morning a broad-spectrum SPF is a must. “It not only protects us from skin cancer and sun damage, but since retinoids promote cell turnover the skin can become more sensitive to the sun and more prone to burning,” explains Metwally.

A mushroom used as an anti-aging ingredient in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for thousands of years. It is well-known for its ability to reduce the appearance of aging skin and boost collagen synthesis. With all those benefits it’s no wonder that the Skin Pharmacy team recommend adding a retinoid to your skincare arsenal in your mid to late 20’s (unless you have acne in which case you can use it sooner). “That's when cell turnover starts slowing down, as does collagen production, which leads to dullness, dryness, and the onset of lines and wrinkles,” says Metwally.
