Retinol is beloved for its proven anti-aging qualities. However, prudent users should be aware that there is a downside to using retinol excessively or using it decades before it is needed.
According to Natalia Derkach, MD, PhD, and founder of INSTYTUTUM, “It is difficult to find a component more effective than retinoids, but critically important to choose skin care products with the new generation retinoids because old-school forms tend to be very aggressive. They give results, but at the same time provoke irritation, husking, and negative reactions of the skin. Next-generation retinoids have the same high efficiency without side effects.”
In the past, I’ve never successfully used a retinol product because of excessive inflammation. Therefore, I was thrilled to note the lack of inflammation occurring while I was using INSTYTUTUM’s X-Strength Retinol Serum. At first, I treaded carefully by slowly introducing my skin to INSTYTUTUM’s retinol serum every other night, before switching over to nightly use. What I especially love about this botanical retinoid alternative’s formula is that it contains nourishing squalene and apricot and grapeseed oil to protect my skin’s barrier against damage and irritation. So far, so good. I think I’ve found THE ONE!
