Retinaldehyde (Retinal) is the most powerful Vitamin A derivative which is only one step away from retinoic acid. It is characterized by having great antioxidant properties; therefore, it has the ability to protect the body's cells from free radicals, which are the main cause of premature aging. Retinaldehyde LipoVes® is a science-driven skincare active developed under biotechnology backgrounds which contains stable liposomated Retinal. Its liposomal delivery system stabilizes the active ensuring potential benefits. It also penetrates the active into inner layers of the skin (approximate particle size of less than 20nm), maximizes its efficacy and reduces its irritation. Retinaldehyde Lipoves® is a stable vegan liposomal solution which acts 11 times faster than Retinol. The smaller the particle size, the deeper the penetration and the higher the efficacy.
- Induces biosynthesis of collagen in the skin
- Remodels the epidermis and dermis
- Provides anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties
- Chemically exfoliates and lightens the skin
- Balances oil production in acne skins
In the body, we convert Beta Carotene into Retinol, Retinol into Retinaldehyde and Retinaldehyde into Retinoic Acid. Retinaldehyde is substantially more active (500 times more!) than their Vitamin A counterparts and Retinal is 1 step away from Retinoic Acid without the side effects of the Acid. All Vitamin A derivatives have important and proven activity in the skin in an escalating level from Beta Carotene to Retinoic Acid respectively. Retinaldehyde's known benefits are that it exfoliate and lighten the skin, reduces oil and bacteria, remodels the epidermis/dermis by actively stimulating collagen/elastin production and provides anti inflammatory and anti oxidant properties.
