Product Description:

Retinyl Palmitate is a gentle, stable form of Vitamin A that supports skin renewal, brightening, and overall skin smoothness. Known for its ability to encourage cell turnover while being milder than retinol, it is ideal for beginners or sensitive skin formulations. It helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, uneven tone, dullness, and texture, making it suitable for anti-aging, brightening, and restorative skincare. Commonly used in serums, creams, lotions, facial oils, and night treatments.

Formulation Guidelines:

• Add to the oil phase of formulations or blend into finished emulsions at low temperatures (below 40°C) to preserve activity.

• Works well with nourishing oils, antioxidants (like Vitamin E), and barrier-supporting ingredients.

• Best suited for night-time products due to photosensitivity.

• Avoid combining with strong exfoliants at high concentrations in the same formula.

Suitable for:

• Anti-aging serums

• Brightening creams

• Facial oils

• Night moisturizers

• Eye creams

• Repair treatments

Storage:

Store in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight to maintain potency.
