Description
Our Vitamin A Palmitate (Retinyl) also known as retinol is an oil soluble retinol for the delivery of age-defying, antioxidant benefits. It is is a nature-identical version of vitamin A (Retinol). There are many forms of this vitamin used in skincare for advanced age related skin care products that focus on maturing skin and gentle exfoliation.
Vitamin A Palmitate (Retinyl/Retinol) is an excellent product that can help rejuvenate the appearance of mature skin making it visibly smoother, more even and youthful-looking. Vitamin A palmitate helps with reducing wrinkles & fine lines, hyperpigmentation, unevenness, blemish control and general age defense.
Our Vitamin A Palmitate is lab-created to exactly match the naturally-produced vitamin A. It can solidify at colder temperatures and is sensitive to heat, light, and air. It is best used in an opaque airless pump container.
It can either be used in a carrier oil or oil blend, or added to lotions or creams. This ingredient should not be used undiluted.
As with all vitamin A based products, it is important to either use sunscreen or stay out of the sun after application. For this reason it might make an excellent night time repair product.
