Ingredient
Glycerin
What It Is

Glycerin works as a humectant, it attracts moisture from the air into the stratum corneum (top layer of skin), and due to its low molecular weight, will continue to draw moisture to the deeper layers of the dermis.

Glycerin also treats several skin disorders, ranging from dry skin to wound healing. The ingredient has the potential of improving your overall internal health as well.

Due to its versatility and ability to moisturise, it’s used in everything from lotions to soaps to toners.

What It Does

How to use in your skincare routine?

Products with glycerin can be used topically multiple times a day. You can safely and effectively use this ingredient in nearly every single step of your skin care routine. Several skin care brands use glycerin when formulating everything from cleansers and toners, to serums and moisturisers.

Benefits
  • Glycerin tightens and firms - Use this ingredient for a few weeks or even a few days and we think you'll find that it plumps and softens your look significantly, especially if you have more mature skin.
  • It improves your complexion - Glycerin is non-comedogenic, meaning it won’t clog pores.
  • It brightens - Between glycerin’s rejuvenating properties and its ability to moisturise, glycerin plays a key role in keeping skin looking bright and luminous.
  • The ingredient is also a good choice for sensitive skin. Because it’s a natural component of skin, it calms redness and inflammation. It’s one of the gentler ingredients you can find in skin care products and can even help alleviate sensitivity over time.
Vitamin E
What It Is

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble, essential nutrient with anti-inflammatory properties. Vitamin E helps support the immune system, cell function, and skin health. It’s an antioxidant, making it effective at combating the effects of free radicals produced by the metabolism of food and toxins in the environment.

Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that may be effective at reducing UV damage in skin. And when applied topically may help nourish and protect your skin from damage caused by free radicals.

What It Does

How to use in your skincare routine?

It can be used underneath moisturiser and sunscreen in the morning [if it’s a vitamin E oil] and is sometimes combined with other antioxidants, such as Vitamin C in Serums.

Best suited for those with dry, very dry, or mature skin.

Avoid using if you have very oily, acne prone skin or those prone to sensitivity.

Benefits

In moisturisers it can:

  • Stop skin from losing moisture.
  • Protect cells from damage.
  • Soften skin.
Glycolic Acid
What It Is

Glycolic acid is a type of alpha-hydroxy acid (or AHA) that's derived from sugar cane. It joins other acids you might recognize, such as lactic acid (derived from sour milk and purportedly a favorite of Cleopatra's), tartaric acid (from grapes), and citric acid - which, you might guess, comes from citrus fruits.

But it's unique, of the AHAs, glycolic is the simplest in structure and the smallest, it has the lowest molecular weight. That small molecular weight means it's easy for it to penetrate your skin and be super effective.

What It Does

As with any exfoliant, it's best to start small if you have sensitive skin or are prone to irritation. We recommend initially opting for a cleanser which will allow your skin to acclimatise first, rather than diving straight into a leave-on glycolic product if you are unsure whether your skin can tolerate it. Try one that pairs glycolic with hydrating ingredients, like hyaluronic acid.

Benefits

When it comes to glycolic acid benefits, the list is long. First and foremost, this is an exfoliant. It helps shed dead skin cells and reveal the newer, brighter layers underneath by acting on the stratum corneum (the outermost layer of skin).

But because glycolic acid is so small, it can get deeper into your skin too, where it does some serious work. Glycolic acid stimulates fibroblasts in the dermis to produce increased amounts of collagen. By stimulating collagen production, it helps skin feel firmer and minimises fine lines and wrinkles.

Vitamin A / Retinol
What It Is

Vitamin A / Retinol plays a bunch of key roles in the body, and it’s essential when it comes to the health of your skin. It’s involved in the production of fresh, new cells, which keeps your skin both functioning and looking its best.

Vitamin A contains retinoids, compounds that come in many forms such as:

  • Retinol - Once in the middle layer of skin, retinol helps neutralise free radicals. This helps boost the production of elastin and collagen, which creates a “plumping” effect that can reduce the appearance of, fine lines, wrinkles and enlarged pores
  • Retinyl -This is the least irritating of all four retinoids, it's a great option for almost all skin types and anyone who wants to keep their pores clear and skin youthful. It promotes skin cell turnover, improves skin tone, helps unclog pores and helps thicken the dermis to slow down the formation of wrinkles.
  • Retinal - This is the only retinoid that exhibits direct antibacterial properties. This makes it perfect for those prone to blemishes. With continued use, it diminishes the bacteria responsible for breakouts to leave skin looking clear, radiant and youthful.
What It Does

How to use in your skincare routine?

We recommend them as part of a nightly skin care routine, when most people don’t mind adding an extra step or two. But it’s also fine to use Vitamin A / Retinol in the daytime, as long as you finish with a broad-spectrum sunscreen rated SPF 30 or greater.

Don’t forget—when you apply your Vitamin A / Retinol product, be sure to include your neck and chest so you get those amazing benefits there, too.

Benefits

Retinoids can help exfoliate skin on the surface, removing dirt, oil, and dead skin cells from pores to prevent pimples. They also penetrate the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen and elastin production, which can help reduce the appearance of pores and acne scarring.

Vitamin A / Retinol , works to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production.
