Youth To The People
What it is: A retinal and niacinamide serum that smooths skin texture, improves the look of fine lines and wrinkles, and brightens uneven skin tone.
Skin Type: Normal, Dry, Combination, and Oily
Skincare Concerns: Fine Lines and Wrinkles, Uneven Texture, and Acne and Blemishes
Formulation: Lightweight Serum
Highlighted Ingredients:
- Retinal (Retinaldehyde) 0.15%: Advanced vitamin A derivative reduces the visible signs of aging and improves the look and feel of skin texture.
- Niacinamide 5%: Visibly rebalances tone, refines pores, and reinforces skin's barrier to maximize receptivity to retinal.
- Adapotgenic Mushroom + Ceramide Complex: Visibly smooth, replenish moisture, and neutralize signs of sensitivity.
Ingredient Callouts: This product is vegan, cruelty-free, and comes in recyclable packaging.
What Else You Need to Know: Meet the retinal with an “a”: retinaldehyde. It’s the most potent retinoid next to an Rx and works with niacinamide and ceramides to hydrate, visibly smooth, and deliver maximal results for all skin types without the typical irritation or acclimation stages.
Clinical Results: Based on a clinical test of 34 participants:
-Reduces fine lines and wrinkles in just one week.
-Improves skin brightness after 4 weeks
In a consumer-perception study of 34 people ages 18 to 64:
-91% agreed skin looked smoother after 1 week
- 91% agreed skin looked clear after 1 week
- 91% agreed skin was visibly firmer after 2 weeks
