How to incorporate retinol into your skincare routine

The beauty world has been banging on about how good retinol is for quite some time now, so chances are you’re already familiar with this anti-aging superstar ingredient.

A form of vitamin A, retinol is an ingredient for reducing wrinkles and fine lines and helping prevent them.

It helps slow down the aging process by boosting collagen production - it’s also great for acne.
