Retinal sits just one conversion step away from retinoic acid, which makes it more potent than standard retinol while still being available without a prescription. With consistent use it genuinely helps refine texture, soften the look of fine lines and even out tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is a true active, it deserves respect. \u003cstrong\u003eRetinoids make your skin more sensitive to the sun, so daily sunscreen is non-negotiable while using this.\u003c\/strong\u003e Start two or three nights a week and build up as your skin adjusts — going too fast commonly causes dryness, flaking and irritation, which puts people off an ingredient that would have worked.
