Absorption (?

Absorption

Absorption describes how well a substance penetrates your skin. Here we measure absorption in terms of its rate of penetration into your skin. How fast did it absorb? Some products don't absorb well, and instead "sit" on top of skin forming a film, which can range from light to heavy. If you still have a layer of product sitting on top of your skin, the rate would be considered Very Slow.

Residue

Description

Why this product still has so much appeal? The answer is: It really works! Even better, unlike most other beauty products with lofty claims, there's proof that this product works. Users report improvements in skin texture, including diminished wrinkles and brown spots. Studies confirm that tretinoin's natural anti-aging components work synergistically to promote overall skin clarity and inspire a youthful, healthy glow. Skin cells contain receptors that help regulate how the cell functions. As people age, their cells behave more erratically. But consistent use of this product helps normalize the cells. Tretinoin (retin-a) can improve skin texture and fade dark spots and freckles because it causes skin cells to turn over more rapidly. It shrinks dilated pores and improves cell turnover within the pores so they are less likely to clog and become blackheads and whiteheads. Collagen is what gives skin its natural structure, firmness and elasticity. Repeated sun exposure breaks down collagen and, with age, cells produce less and less collagen to repair the damage. Skin wrinkles, sags and loses fullness. This product also helps to boost collagen.
