• 00:00:00 In this section, the YouTuber discusses the benefits of using retinoids, a family of compounds derived from Vitamin A that can be effective in reducing acne, decreasing the signs of aging such as wrinkles and pigmentation. Retinoids work by reducing the size of sebaceous glands and decreasing the production of skin oils and keratinization, which prevents clogging of pores. The most potent form of retinoids is retinoic acid, which is often used in prescription medicines to treat acne, while retinol is the most common and easily accessible form in cosmetics. It is essential to use retinoids gradually and in small concentrations to avoid skin irritation while ensuring a stable and long-term effect.
• 00:05:00 In this section, the speaker gives advice on using retinoids and recommends using them solo in the evening before applying a moisturizing cream. It is best not to mix retinoids with other irritating actives like acids. Products with both retinol and vitamin C and perhaps hyaluronic acid are recommended instead of layering many different products. Encapsulated retinol is also discussed, which helps to stabilize the ingredient for longer shelf life and a gentler effect. The speaker explains that retinol is not an instant anti-aging ingredient, but results can be seen in about three months with smoother skin texture, reduced pigmentation, and smaller pores.
