RETINOL VS REVINAGE : THE BETTER CHOICE TO FIGHT SKIN AGEING

As you age, your collagen production slows down. Retinol, when applied, works to boost collagen production in your skin. But for many people incorporating Retinol into their skincare routine is similar to finding the last piece of the puzzle. Though it is a derived form of Vitamin A, topical application on the skin can cause some irritation. Retinol is ‘The’ solution to the anti-aging problem but a more nature-based Revinage is also gaining popularity due to its non-irritable component. Let us learn through the benefits and side effects of the anti-aging ingredients.

Revinage: The Better

Plant-Based Alternative of Retinol

Revinage is a plant-based extract acting like synthetic retinoids. It is found in Bidens Pilosa that is commonly known as blackjack. The effective plant-based extract regulates cell proliferation and differentiation for cell rejuvenation.

Growth factor is a gentle solution for sensitive skin as it works on the outermost layer of the epidermis. As the protein is derived from human cells and it promotes massive turnover of cells. Not only it pair well with anti-aging products, but it also goes really well with vitamin C, essential for skin nourishment,
