Forever Young Retinol Night Treatment 30ml

In Annique Rooibos’ quest to provide world class, highly effective anti-ageing treatments, we proudly present the new Retinol Night Treatment in the Forever Young range.

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.

Guidelines for Using Retinol as a Night Treatment:

• Apply at night: Retinol is most effective when applied at night, as sunlight can degrade its efficacy.
• Use sunscreen daily: Because retinoids can increase sun sensitivity, it's crucial to apply sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from harmful UV rays.
• Start slowly: If you are prone to sensitivity begin with applying it every second or third day to allow your skin to get used to it gradually. Increase frequency and concentration as tolerated.
• Patch test before use
• Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding
• Do not use on broken skin
• Avoid contact with eyes

Important Note:

• Increased Sensitivity to Sun: Retinoids can make your skin more susceptible to sunburn. It's essential to use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using Retinol.
• Possible Skin Irritation: Although unlikely, some individuals with extremely sensitive skin may experience redness, flakiness, or dryness when first using Retinol for the first time. These side effects typically diminish with continued use. We have mitigated these effects by combining Retinol with a milder form (Retinyl Palmitate), reducing the likelihood of irritation.

• Active Ingredients:

  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 Benefits: 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, provide moisture, 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, inflamed, and sensitive skin types.
