Retinaldehyde — The One-Step Conversion Secret
This is not retinol. This is retinal. And that one letter changes everything. All vitamin A must convert to retinoic acid before your skin can use it — the difference is how many steps it takes.
CONVERSION PATH
Retinol requires two steps:
Retinol → Retinal → Retinoic Acid
Retinal requires one:
Retinal → Retinoic Acid
Why it feels different
Fewer conversion steps means fewer byproducts — that's why many people experience results without the classic "ugly phase".
Stabilized & Encapsulated
Protected from air & light degradation so the active stays potent until it touches your skin.
WHAT IT DOES
Signals skin cells to behave younger. Accelerates cell turnover. Supports collagen production and helps smooth fine lines at the source.
