Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a highly effective retinoid formula that quickly firms and smooths the skin while visibly reducing age spots. It helps refine the skin's texture, combats uneven skin tone, and improves the skin's radiance.

The serum is suitable for all skin types and is recommended for experienced users of retinoids. For first-time users of retinoids, we recommend trying Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion or Retinol 0.2% in Squalane and moving on to higher concentrations as skin tolerance increases.

Retinal (also known as retinaldehyde) is a well-studied retinoid that provides a more efficient delivery of the most direct form of vitamin A molecules than retinol, as it is closer to the bioactive form of vitamin A.

With a high concentration of 0.2% retinal, Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is able to noticeably improve skin firmness and reduce the appearance of expression lines and wrinkles, such as crow's feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles.

Retinal 0.2% Emulsion also contains synthetic oat analogues (specifically avenanthramide, an important component of oats). This ingredient is known to help with skin discomfort and dryness, which are often associated with the use of retinoids.

The bright yellow color of the formula is due to the high concentration of retinal, which is naturally yellow. This may leave some residual color on the skin and light-colored fabrics. This can be minimized by allowing the product to absorb completely and letting the skin dry before coming into contact with light-colored fabrics. These color residues can be removed by washing the skin with water and washing textiles with your normal detergent according to the care instructions.
