Naturys Anti-Age Retinol Booster

We could all do with retinol in our lives as our skin gets older!

After all, when it comes to reducing the visible signs of ageing, retinol is the “super-ingredient” every beauty professional hails as the holy grail of the skincare world! Why? Because it offers a multitude of benefits; From reducing the appearance of fine lines and preventing wrinkles, to correcting hyperpigmentation, reducing large pores and clearing acne. Retinol also has the ability to speed cell turnover making cells function like that of a child!

Want to know our favourite vegan-friendly retinol serum right now? The new Naturys Anti-Age Retinol Booster! This retinol serum is also formulated with bakuchiol, and both ingredients work together to effectively enrich skin with a microdose of daily regenerating strength! The formulation also visibly reduces the signs of time, improves texture and tones skin.

When we are talking skincare and vegan, we need to make sure we include a great eye cream! Especially since our eyes are the first area on our face to show signs of ageing.

It provides eyes with a dual smoothing and revitalizing effect in a silky, cocooning cream texture suitable for the delicate eye area (of course!) and after just a short amount of time you will love the results this eye cream provides! Wrinkles are visibly reduced and signs of fatigue (which I most certainly suffer from!) fade away. What’s better, is that its suitable for those with very sensitive eyes too.

It also helps correct overproduction of sebum, enlarged pores, acne and skin prone to redness. It’s seriously good stuff.
