Retinal for Age-Defying Skin
Retinal works via 2 main biological effects: An uptick in the skin’s ability to retain moisture, and an increase in the skin’s intrinsic collagen production. Diminishing visible wrinkles with retinal comes with its own suite of sub-benefits as well. If you wear face makeup like foundation, you’ll also enjoy the added bonus of minimising “crepeyness” to create a smoother, more supple base for your favourite cosmetics.
All retinoids work by increasing cell turnover and supporting the appearance of firmer skin. The benefits of retinoids include improving uneven skin tones and skin texture, reducing the appearance of dark spots, fine lines and signs of ageing.
However, not all retinoids are equal. Tretinoin, or retinoic acid, is available by prescription only. This is retinoid in its most potent form and can be absorbed and used by the skin directly. The other forms of retinoid must be converted to retinoic acid before they can start working their rejuvenating magic. Murad’s unique retinol formula packs a punch against signs of aging without the traditional retinol effects including dryness and redness.

Retinal, also known as retinaldehyde, is just one step removed from retinoic acid, making it more immediately effective than other retinoids. Retinal can be ideal for those who wish to improve skin texture, tone, and return their skin to a more youthful-looking state.
