Murad, NakedPoppy, Babor and Others Are Bringing Fresh Takes to the Retinol Game.
According to Murad’s head of research and development Andrew Koenig, retinal “is closer [than retinol] to retinoic acid by one metabolic pathway,” and is thus more efficient in delivering the ingredient’s benefits, making it a suitable hero for the brand’s Retinal ReSculpt Overnight Treatment, which targets those with mature skin.
Formulated with pharmaceutical-like retinal encapsulation to further increase potency, the treatment also taps kangaroo paw flower extract, olive, oat and alpha glucan to preserve elasticity and combat dryness.
