Forever Young | Retinol

Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, is a powerhouse ingredient in skin care known for its transformative effects on the skin. Widely celebrated for its anti-ageing properties, Retinol can lead to a smoother, more youthful complexion, making it a
staple in your skin care routine.

How Retinol Works

  1. Ageing skin loses its elasticity, leading to the lines, wrinkles and  a rough texture.
  2. Retinol stimulates fibroblasts in the skin, boosting collagen production.
  3. New collagen moves up towards the skin’s surface and the rate of cell renewal.
  4. Wrinkles are reduced as new collagen spreads in the skin and new skin cells emerge
  • Apply a small amount to face and neck in the evening as part of your skin care regimen. Use after cleansing, before

    Skin Detox and serums if applicable and before your Annique Rooibos Night Cream.

  • Use sun protection daily.
  • Start by using the Annique Rooibos Retinol Night Treatment 2-3 times a week at night, for 4 weeks. Gradually increase
    your use thereafter to a daily basis.

Retinol:

Retinol boosts skin cell production and rejuvenates the epidermis, leading to
smoother, more radiant skin with an even tone. The formula includes Retinol
and Retinyl Palmitate, derivatives of Vitamin A, which provide several
benefits:

    • Enhanced Effectiveness: Fast results with Retinol and gentler, sustained
      effects with Retinyl Palmitate.
    • Sustained Release: Retinyl Palmitate
      acts as a reservoir, converting slowly
      to Retinol for prolonged benefits.
    • Reduced Irritation: The combination helps reduce irritation, redness, and
      dryness, making it suitable for various skin types.
    • Comprehensive Benets: Retinol penetrates deeper, while Retinyl Palmitate improves surface texture and tone.

Vitamin E:

An antioxidant that fights free radical damage, promotes healing, diminishes signs of ageing, provides moisture, and
strengthens the skin’s protective barrier.

Ceramides:

Essential lipid molecules that form a protective barrier, prevent water loss, shield against damage, aid in repair,
and help manage conditions like eczema and psoriasis. They combat ageing signs by maintaining skin
moisture and elasticity.

Rooibos:

Hypoallergenic and non-irritating, Rooibos. Calms and soothes red, irritated, inamed, and sensitive skin types.

  • Stimulates Collagen Production: Boosts collagen synthesis, leading to improved skin elasticity and firmness.
  • Enhances Cellular Turnover: By accelerating the shedding of dead skin cells, it promotes the emergence of fresh, radiant skin.
  • Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Continuous use can visibly reduce the appearance of ne lines and wrinkles, resulting in smoother skin texture.
  • Evens Skin- Tone: Helps fade hyperpigmentation and age spots, resulting in a more even complexion.
  • Minimizes the Appearance of Pores: Through its exfoliating properties, it may unclog pores and reduce their appearance.
