KEY INGREDIENTS
Circular Chevron Icon
  • Ingredient Icon 1
    Retinol

    This classic form of vitamin A helps to support collagen levels and enhance the skin’s natural regenerative cycle. This promotes a smoother and more youthful-looking complexion.

  • Ingredient Icon 2
    Climbazole

    Climbazole has been proven to boost the activity of vitamin A in the skin, for increased age-defying power without the common irritating effects.

  • Ingredient Icon 3
    Squalane

    An almost skin-identical lipid which helps to support the natural skin barrier by nourishing the complexion.

  • Ingredient Icon 4
    Vitamin E

    A powerful antioxidant that provides additional antioxidant protection against the ageing effects of free radicals. It also helps to boost the power of vitamin C for optimum visible results.

THE SCIENCE BEHIND THE FORMULA
Circular Chevron Icon
science behind Zoom In Icon

When retinol is applied to the skin, it is converted to retinoic acid (the active form of vitamin A). This active form helps to support collagen production and prevent its breakdown, for more youthful-looking skin over time. It can also help reboot the skin’s natural exfoliation cycle to improve the look of uneven skin tone and texture. Within Intelligent Retinol, retinol's performance is enhanced by climbazole, a breakthrough ingredient in vitamin A technology that has been proven to boost the activity of retinol by blocking the enzymes which break down retinoic acid in the skin.* The result is supercharged visible results, without the common irritating downsides of other vitamin A formulas.
