Information

Retinyl Palmitate is an active form of Vitamin A that is more readily absorbed and usable by the body. It is also a milder form of Vitamin A compared to retinol and is widely used in skincare due to its skin-conditioning and antioxidant properties. Retinyl Palmitate is known for its stability and ease of formulation, making it a popular ingredient in various skincare products.

Where does it come from?

Retinyl Palmitate, a derivative of Vitamin A, is found in animal foods, especially liver and dairy products. It is an ester formed from retinol (pure Vitamin A) and palmitic acid, a fatty acid. This combination creates a more stable form of Vitamin A suitable for topical skincare formulations.

What are the benefits?

ANTI-AGING PROTECTING SOOTHING

What are the benefits?

  • Anti-Aging: Helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by promoting collagen production and skin cell turnover.
  • Antioxidant Protection: Protects the skin from oxidative stress caused by free radicals, helping to prevent premature aging.
  • Skin Renewal: Enhances skin cell turnover, leading to a brighter and smoother complexion.
  • Improved Skin Texture: Helps to even out skin tone and texture, reducing the appearance of rough or uneven skin.
  • Hydration Support: Aids in maintaining skin hydration and elasticity by supporting the skin barrier function.

How is it used in our products?

Retinyl Palmitate is used in Serum Hydroxytyrosol Skin Tint from Olive Rose. It is included at a very low concentration for daytime use. This ensures it provides the benefits of Vitamin A without causing redness, irritation, or sensitivity. Known for its anti-aging and rejuvenating properties, Retinyl Palmitate is a gentler form of Vitamin A, that promotes collagen production, aids in diminishing wrinkles, brightens skin, and boosts skin regeneration which contributes to a more radiant complexion.

To ensure your skin tolerates this ingredient well, please perform a patch test by applying a small amount to the inside of your forearm and observing the area for any signs of irritation, redness, or itching over a 24-hour period. If any reaction occurs, discontinue use and consult a dermatologist.
