Ep 4: Vitamin A - Retinol, Retinal & Retinoids

Welcome to Skincare School the podcast, your ultimate skincare study guide. Join Adore Beauty’s Senior Editor Amy Clark and Dr. Michelle Wong from Lab Muffin Beauty Science as they take things right back to basics to make skin care simple and F-U-N! What’s on this episode? We’re glad you asked… Vitamin A Made Easy. Ever heard of retinol? Or retinoids? What about vitamin A? Or was it prescription vitamin A? This week, Michelle breaks down exactly why vitamin A is the gold standard of anti-ageing skincare ingredients, and how to know which form of vitamin A to put on your face. Plus, we debunk some common vitamin A myths, like whether retinol purging is actually a thing and if stronger equals faster results. And in our Best in Class segment, Amy shares how to find the right vitamin A product for your skin type, including the best products for vitamin A beginners and retinol fiends alike. P.S.
