Vitamin C and retinol: The power couple for your skin

Skin Republic's Vitamin C and Retinol serums and masks offer a range of benefits for your skin. Vitamin C provides protection against free radicals, brightens the complexion, and promotes an even skin tone. Retinol stimulates collagen production, reducing signs of aging and improving skin texture and tone. Just remember to take appropriate sun protection measures when using these products.

Vitamin C

is a potent antioxidant that helps protect your skin from harmful free radicals. This helps prevent premature aging which leads to fine lines and wrinkles. Vitamin C aids in brightening your skin’s complexion and reducing the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation for a more even skin tone.

Make the most of this energising powerhouse

AM Application: Start your day with a burst of Vitamin C goodness! Cleanse your face using the Skin Republic PHA 3% cleanser, then apply the Skin Republic Vitamin C Serum.

Sunscreen Sidekick: Vitamin C and sunscreen go together. Team them up, and you've got a powerful duo that shields your skin from harmful UV rays. Remember, sun protection is vital, even on cloudy days.

Retinol

is a highly effective anti-aging ingredient. It stimulates collagen production, which improves skin elasticity and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Retinol also enhances skin texture and tone, smoothing rough patches and minimising the visibility of pores. It can even assist in managing acne breakouts.

Add this dynamic anti-aging ingredient to your evening routine

PM Application: After cleansing, apply Skin Republic Pure Retinol Serum to your face. This serum gets to work reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while you sleep. Wake up to a fresh-faced version of you.

Start slow and steady: Introduce retinol gradually into your routine. Begin by using it once or twice a week, then gradually increase the frequency as your skin adjusts.

Top Tip

Both Vitamin C and Retinol can increase skin’s sensitivity to the sun, so it’s essential to wear sunscreen to protect both your skin and the active ingredients from harmful UV rays.
