Glutathione, soy isoflavones and n-acetyl glucosamine: Prevents appearance of new age spots and uneven color A safe and effective growth factor analog known to support healing and regeneration, further collagen synthesis, and deliver beneficial epigenetic messages to cell nuclei. It is a key bio-identical molecule in the cellular “emergency response system” of the body.

Microencapsulated Retinol (0.2%) : A vitamin A derivative and antioxidant that reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and improves texture and tone by strengthening skin, improving elasticity and increasing skin turnover. Retinol also targets blemish-prone skin by unclogging pores and enhances skin tone by reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation. Encapsulated retinol allows for a slow release into the skin overnight, which minimizes side effects so you can enjoy all the benefits of retinol with little to no irritation! And just a word about the Zo skin products: I strongly recommend! If you are scared of the radical night repair (Retinol) then try the Complexion renewal pads and the hydrating cleanser, you will see improvement imminent!

Licorice Root Extract : Licorice is an antioxidant that brightens the skin and lightens the appearance of hyperpigmentation.

An ingredient from the Psoralea Corylifolia (babchi) plant, used for centuries in Ayurvedic medicine to help the appearance of aging skin. It is even more powerful when combined with Retinol, as it shares the benefits but with higher skin tolerability. With all those benefits it’s no wonder that the Skin Pharmacy team recommend adding a retinoid to your skincare arsenal in your mid to late 20’s (unless you have acne in which case you can use it sooner). “That's when cell turnover starts slowing down, as does collagen production, which leads to dullness, dryness, and the onset of lines and wrinkles,” says Metwally. High potency retinol and ascorbic acid-2 glucoside: Removes appearance of existing pigmentation and supports natural cell turnover to rapidly brighten and even skin tone Niacinamide (vitamin B3) : Niacinamide increases ceramide and free fatty acids in the skin, which are key components of its protective lipid barrier. Along with keeping in moisture and boosting hydration, it also brightens skin, calms redness and increases tolerance to topical retinoids. Not only that, but retinoids also flood the skin with retinoic acid. “Prescription retinoids like tretinoin are concentrated forms of active retinoic acid, while over the counter topical retinol converts into retinoic acid within the skin once applied. This makes prescription grade retinols more potent than retinol, but with people often finding retinol more tolerable and comfortable to use, this is no bad thing,” explains Metwally.
