What makes our Retinol unique! 

QUESTION 1:  What makes our peptide unique?

ANSWER: Peptides are short chains of amino acids that are essential for the formation of proteins, the building blocks of skin tissue. Our bodies produce more than 7,000 different types of peptides. Compared to the years it might take a scientist, AI can sort through this data within just months. Helping to identify not only the most skin beneficial peptides, but also those that can enhance the results of other ingredients within a formula. Nu Skin then follows up with additional clinical studies (both internal and third-party validation) to substantiate the findings. 

Those clinical findings revealed that our peptide was 

     1.  Fast acting 

     2. Nature-identical 

     3. Anti-aging, and 

     4. Boosted the effectiveness of the retinol   

         ingredients in our formula!

QUESTION 2:  Is the AI peptide in retinol gentle?

ANSWER: ageLOC Tru Face Peptide Retinol Complex uses the first clinically tested, nature-identical anti-aging peptide discovered by AI that targets aging and boosts retinol. Nature-identical ingredients have the same molecular structure and benefits as natural ingredients. They are gentle and well tolerated by the skin because they are already essential components the skin utilizes. Retinol Complex also contains Jojoba + a 4TB blend that help soothe and hydrate the skin thus calming potential irritation before it happens.

QUESTION 3:  Does Retinol make skin thin? 

ANSWER:  Retinol increases cellular turnover. This causes the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, to be removed “thinning” the stratum corneum. What is important to understand however is that those top layers are flat, dead skin cells that can accumulate and pile up on each other. This causes a dull, aged look to the complexion. Dead skin can also trap oily sebum, bacteria, and impurities that can clog and enlarge pores, and cause acne breakouts. Using a chemical exfoliant like Retinol can reveal younger, plumper layers of skin that are less affected with the appearance of aging. New layers of skin are actually thicker and are one of the fastest ways to brighten the skin. This process also helps reduce pore appearance, wrinkles, and discoloration.
