Vitamin A in Skin Care

Many skin care products contain Vitamin A or its derivative, retinoids. Why?

Retinoids or Vitamin A is essential to stimulate collagen production and can rejuvenate the skin. Used over a long period of time, creams are usually the most common product that contains this ingredient.

However, make sure you take care when using products rich with this stuff. It may cause irritation, dryness and flakiness. Slather on the sunscreen, too, since it’s been shown to increase sensitivity to the sun’s damaging rays.
