The Importance Of Retinol In An Anti-Ageing Regimen

The Importance Of Retinol In An Anti-Ageing Regimen

  • By Srishty Singh

The barrage of myths surrounding Retinol gives it a bad rap. If used aptly, Retinol offers several benefits across skin types. It boosts Collagen production to fight fine lines, unclogs pores to prevent acne, and so much more (discussed later in this blog).  

While ageing is a natural process, Retinol is an efficacious ingredient that helps you age gracefully. So, why not give it a fair shot? Scroll ahead, as we discuss the many benefits of Retinol and introduce you to the best Retinol Serum. That’s right. This Foxtale bestseller ensures maximum efficacy with minimum flareups. 

Before We Get There, Let’s Understand Retinol   

Retinol is a form of Vitamin A found in creams, moisturizers, and other skincare products. However, in this blog, we rally for Retinol in the serum format. Here’s why  

1. A serum contains a high concentration of Retinol molecules, making it effective.

2. The thin, watery consistency of a Retinol serum allows it to seep deep into the skin, boosting its efficacy.

What Are The Benefits Of Retinol? 

If you’re still on the fence about Retinol, here’s a closer look at its benefits. So, read at leisure and make an informed choice 

1. Retinol restores your skin’s youthful appearance: We know that Retinol is the most popular for its anti-ageing benefits. The topical application of Retinol boosts Collagen production, softening fine lines, wrinkles, and crow’s feet. Moreover, Retinol helps neutralize free radicals that damage and deplete your skin’s Collagen bank. 

2. Retinol treats inflammatory and non-inflammatory acne: Retinol helps treat acne by preventing clogged pores. Add the active ingredient to your PM routine to beat whiteheads, blackheads and acne bumps. For recurring bumps, you can also try Foxtale’s gel for acne 

3. Retinol improves skin texture: For those unaware, the skin has a circadian rhythm. In simple terms – the skin takes up protection activities during the day and slips into repair mode in the PM. Skincare workhorse Retinol aids this repair process by shedding buildup and ensuring healthy regeneration of skin cells. It helps clarify the skin, fights dark spots and minimizes the appearance of pores. 

The Best Retinol Serum 

Now that you are well versed in the benefits of Retinol, it's time to add the active to your routine. The problem that most people face with Retinol – it is an unstable molecule that can cause flare-ups and inflammation. Luckily, Foxtale’s innovative formula solves this problem. 

What Makes Foxtale’s Retinol Serum Stand Out? 

Foxtale’s innovative serum uses encapsulated Retinol to reduce the episodes of purging.  

This technology encloses Retinol in a protective barrier that breaks open after travelling through the skin. Results? Improved efficacy and faster results.  

Additionally, our Retinol anti ageing serum doesn’t leave behind any residue that can cause purging or irritation. 

What Are Some Benefits Of Foxtale’s Retinol Serum? 

1. Our serum uses Encapsulated Retinol, reducing episodes of purging and irritation.  

2. Foxtale’s Retinol Anti-Ageing Serum has been formulated with all skin types in mind. The formulation is dubbed fit for folks with underlying sensitivities too.  

3. Unlike many Retinol serums, our innovative offering won’t dry out the skin. That’s right. Foxtale’s Retinol Serum contains Betaine and Kokum Butter that ensure long-lasting moisturization.  

4. Allantoin in the serum counters minor episodes of inflammation, irritation, and flareups. 

The Best Skincare Routine For Mature Skin 
Want to make the most of Retinol? Here’s a nighttime routine to help you stand in good stead. Scroll ahead  

1. Cleansing: Use a gentle cleanser to remove dirt, grime and impurities from the pores, ensuring a balanced microbiome. If you have dry or sensitive skin, try Foxtale’s Hydrating Face Wash. It contains Sodium Hyaluronate and Red Algae Extract that intensely hydrate the skin. Alternatively, folks with oily or combination skin can try Foxtale’s Acne Control Face Wash. Salicylic Acid in this formulation cuts excess oil, soothes inflammation, and reduces acne breakouts.

How to use: Take a coin-sized amount of the cleanser and scrub for 30 seconds. Once through, use cold or lukewarm water for a double cleanse. 

2. Treatment: Once your skin is dry, apply 2 to 3 drops of Foxtale’s Retinol Serum.

How to use: We recommend using Retinol thrice a week at night. This little step in your PM routine helps accelerate cellular renewal, improving your skin’s texture. 

3. Moisturize: Once the serum absorbs into the skin, use a moisturizer to seal in this treatment. Moreover, moisturizer decelerates ageing signs, calms inflammation, and makes your skin soft & supple. If you have dry skin, we recommend Foxtale’s Hydrating Moisturizer. It contains Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer, Olive Leaf Extract, and Ceramides that improve your skin’s water-holding capacity. 

People with oily or combination skin can try Foxtale’s Oil Free Moisturizer. The lightweight moisturizer blots sebum, reduces acne, and calms redness. Additionally, Hyaluronic Acid and Marine Extracts replenish your skin’s moisture reservoir. 

Sensitive skin folks, place your trust in Foxtale’s Skin Repair Cream. It uses ERS technology to hydrate, nourish, and heal your skin. 

How to use: Take a dollop of your moisturizer and apply it on your skin. 

4. Eye Treatment: 

After applying your moisturizer, whip out Foxtale’s Brightening Under Eye Cream. The innovative formula with Vitamin C, Caffeine, and Hyaluronic Acid mimics the effects of an undereye filler. This gel reduces pigmentation, improves hydration, boosts microcirculation and enhances Collagen production to fade dark circles. All you need is 30 days for visible, jaw-dropping results. 

How to use: Use the ceramic tip and apply a pea-sized amount of the treatment on the problem areas. 

5. Sunscreen, the following morning:

Retinol can cause skin photosensitivity in some individuals. To avoid any damage, we recommend using SPF the following morning. A potent sunscreen shields the skin against harmful UVA and UVB radiation, preventing pigmentation, burns, and tanning. 

How to use: Take two fingers’ worth of sunscreen and apply it on your face and neck. Since sunscreen takes about 20 minutes to absorb completely, don’t apply it right before stepping out. If you are staying outdoors for long periods, reapply every two hours or so. Additionally, we recommend using scarves, hats, and caps to safeguard your skin.
