The truth about Vitamin A in skincare Skin Deep

    • Health & Fitness

Probably the most misunderstood molecule in skincare, Vitamin A is as vital for healthy skin as oxygen is for life. It is the chief instigator of all events within the skin's cellular matrix, including hyaluronic acid and collagen synthesis. And the greatest myth, in my opinion, is that the more irritating the form is, the better the results. The skin is an organ; just like any organ, if you continuously stress it by using harsh and irritating ingredients, it will become compromised, inflamed and uncomfortable. If you are passionate about skin and skin health, then today's episode of Skin Deep is essential listening.
