SKIN SCHOOL: Retinol vs. AHA
If Vitamin C and Hyaluronic are bread and butter, Retinol and AHAs are Oreos and OJ - we love them both individually, but they just don’t go together. 🙅
AHAs are naturally occurring acids that gently exfoliate the skin by dissolving the bonds that hold onto old skin cells for a revitalised, clear complexion.
Retinol is not an exfoliant, rather it stimulates skin cell proliferation and promotes cell renewal to soften fine lines and wrinkles.
Two powerhouse ingredients, you’ll absolutely want both retinol and AHAs in your arsenal - just don’t use them on the same night! 🌙
Our new favourite PM skincare ritual - skin cycling - gives these actives the time and space they need to do their thing without ever overwhelming your skin.
