What to replace retinol?

When it comes to anti-aging, retinol is the benchmark ingredient. However, its use can be unpleasant, so many people are looking for retinol-free options. Are you one of them? Thanks to the NUXE laboratory, you can now replace retinol with an even more effective natural alternative. 

Retinol is a form of vitamin A widely used in the cosmetics industry. It is recognized for its anti-aging action and has a number of advantages:

• It improves cell renewal.

• It boosts collagen production.

• Provides an exfoliating action.

• Minimizes the appearance of pores.

Skin becomes firmer, wrinkles are reduced and spots diminish. The skin's texture is smoother, the complexion more even-toned and luminous.

Despite these results, many people are looking for an alternative to retinol, as its use involves a number of constraints:

• Retinol is not suitable for all skin types. It can cause irritation, redness, tingling, tightness and dryness in sensitive skin.

• It is classified as a photosensitizing molecule. It is therefore preferable to avoid using retinol during the day, and to apply it in the evening. If used during the day, combine with a sunscreen and stay in the shade as much as possible.

Thanks to NUXE research, you can now count on ALFA[3R] technology to replace retinol.

NUXE's latest innovation ALFA[3R] technology technology defies the signs of aging and revolutionizes anti-aging skin care.

Revitalized, regenerated and resurfaced, skin is visibly younger-looking.

The exclusive technology at the heart of the new Nuxuriance Ultra ALFA [3R] range range, is used in 6 treatments:
