Of these ingredients, one is particularly important and a component that no modern skin care regime should be without – some have dubbed it the ‘liquid gold of skin care’ – Retinaldehyde.
One of the basic founding pillars of the Elixxir Skin Care System is Retinaldehyde, which is a form of Vitamin A. We know that Vitamin A derivatives are the most important anti-ageing substances that you can put on your skin!
Some of the amazing benefits or Retinaldehyde include:
- Stimulates Fibroblasts in the dermis of your skin to produce collagen/elastin
- Increases cell turnover in the epidermis of your skin; smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles
- Increases the circulation to the skin, increasing its food supply and making it healthier
- Normalises oil production in areas where sebaceous glands are overactive
- Lightens hyperpigmentation in areas where there is irregular or splotchy pigment
- Maintains the epidermal cell cycle at youthful levels
Retinaldehyde – unlike Retin-A, can be stored in the skin, is non-irritating and non-sun sensitising!
