The ingredient Retinol is used in many
skin care products. Retinol comes from Vitamin A which is a yellow, viscous liquid insoluble in water. It is used in lubricating creams and oils for its
alleged skin-healing properties. Retinol can be absorbed through the skin. Its absence from the diet leads to loss in weight, slows the growth of development and cause eye diseases. Very high levels of Retinol cause the skin to turn yellow and cause birth defects and pressure on the brain. Retinol is a Vitamin A acid that is the main ingredient in Retin-A and Renova which is used to treat fine lines and wrinkles in the skin. This ingredient helps keep the skins deterioration in place and helps fight infections, it helps rid combustible toxins in the air and out of your skin, such as cigarette smoke.
