Retinaldehyde Serum

Brand: Rationale

Retinaldehyde is a natural form of vitamin A found in skin cells.

Vitamin A has been used in dermatology for many years in prescription and over-the-counter forms.  It has the ability to repair signs of sun damage and premature ageing such as wrinkles, pigmentation and rough, dry skin.

However, most forms of vitamin A are irritating and can cause redness, peeling and sensitivity.  Retinaldehyde is a non-irritating Vitamin A metabolite which gives all of the benefits of vitamin A therapy without causing undesirable side effects.

Benefits:

Photoageing

Clinical studies show significant reduction in wrinkles and roughness using retinaldehyde.

Acne
Trials suggest retinaldehyde shows significant anti-bacterial activity against P. acnes, reducing comedones with less erythema and burning or itching compared to Retinoic Acid.

Rosacea
Studies indicate that retinaldehyde is effective in decreasing redness and flushing in skin disorders such as rosacea.

• Provides outstanding retinoid benefits with low irritancy profile
• Smoothes and clarifies skin tone and texture
• Increases skin hydration
• Assists repair following UV exposure and sun damage
• Helps fade pigmentation

Suggested Usage:

Use nightly. Cleanse with Rationale Preparatory Cleanser.  Apply a few drops of Rationale Retinaldehyde Serum to face, neck, chest and backs of hands.  Follow with Rationale Skin Refining Serum and Rationale Moisture+ or Enriched Hydration

Need To Know:

Use Retinaldehyde as non-irritating alternative to retinoic acid, if you are sensitive to retinoic acid therapy.

As with all retinoids, avoid use during pregnancy.
