Tip! When using a retinol skincare product, apply it before a layer of your SPF product to protect you and the anti-aging ingredients from sunlight and UV damage.
The Anew Clinical line has two new products with retinol.
Anew Clinical Line Eraser With Retinol Treatment uses retinol in an amino acid complex to fight wrinkles, and give the skin a youthful appearance. (Remember how I said that retinol makes skin act younger at the cellular level?)
Anew Clinical Line Eraser With Retinol Targeted Treatment focuses a targeted formula of Vitamins C, E and the A retinol to combat deep lines, especially in problem areas like the forehead and around your mouth.
You have heard this works, you may have even seen it works. But how? How does this work??
Well, retinol sort of has a conversation with your skin. I imagine it going something like this:
“Hey skin, nice to see you! How are ya?”
“Hi retinol, I’m feeling a little down.”
“Right then, let’s get to work clearing out the damage and we can perk you right up!”
“How’s that going to happen, retinol?”
“You can start by breaking me down with your enzymes, and I’ll take part in your molecular functions!”
“Will it hurt?”
“Maybe a little, but then you can get back to creating collagen and you’ll feel so much younger!”
I can’t believe I just wrote a conversation between skin and retinol.* But that’s basically how it goes. The retinol and the skin have a little conversation about how they will work together, and in the end, the skin cells feel refreshed and start making collagen.
Here’s the caveat: irritation might happen. Because of the nature of retinol, and how it’s really digging into the skin at the cellular level, irritation is a natural skin response. You will want to start your retinol treatment slowly, and build up over time. Eventually, you may even want to try a prescription strength retinol.
In 1986, Avon became the first to use stabilized retinol, an anti-aging ingredient, in its patented BioAdvance Beauty Recovery System.
Start with Anew Clinical Line Eraser with Retinol Treatment. Apply it all over the face, or to areas of your skin with signs of aging or sun damage.
