Description
Anti-ageing night cream with retinal and retinol from Skin Clinic. The brand’s most searched-for product and its benchmark anti-ageing treatment.
What it does
It combines two retinoids: retinal, the step immediately before retinoic acid in the skin and faster-acting than retinol, here encapsulated in nanosomes so that it is better tolerated, and retinyl palmitate, which is gentler. They come with stabilised vitamin C, ceramides and ectoin, which support the barrier while the skin gets used to it, and a milk peptide and Gatuline® In-Tense for firmness. The brand reports fewer wrinkles, better texture and more firmness and radiance with continued use.
Who it is for
Skin with wrinkles, early laxity or uneven texture. If you have never used retinoids, start gradually (see below). It is not for very sensitive skin or skin that is irritated at the time, nor for use on top of another retinoid. It is not used during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Key ingredients
- Retinal encapsulated in nanosomes — a fast-acting retinoid, with gradual release
- Retinyl palmitate — a retinol ester, gentler
- Stabilised vitamin C — antioxidant and radiance
- Ceramide Complex and ectoin — barrier and soothing
- MPC Milk Peptide and Gatuline® In-Tense — firmness
- Avocado oil and moringa butter — nourishment
Actives according to the manufacturer’s technical data sheet. The full ingredient list (INCI) is the one printed on the pack, and that is the one that counts: it may vary between batches and markets.
How to use it
At night, on the clean, dry skin of the face and neck. Introduce it gradually: two or three nights a week at first, then increase as tolerated. A little tightness or peeling in the first few weeks is normal; if it stings or turns red, space out the applications. During the day, always SPF 50+ sunscreen.
Size
50 ml, with pump.
