The Best Retinoid for Sensitive Skin: Retinyl Retinoate
A retinoid unique and exclusive to Medik8 (who are famed for their retinoid products), retinyl retinoate “is truly special” says Isaacs, “as it is the only form of vitamin A that can be used during the day because it doesn’t break down in sunlight. So, you get the benefits during the day, but it’s also completely non-irritating.” He adds that “it also increases collagen production and wrinkle repair by up to eight times more than standard retinol.” Their R-Retinoate Youth Activating Cream is suitable for even the most sensitive skin types, plus it contains hyaluronic acid to hydrate and vitamin C to boost glow. A true all-rounder.
