Questions
Is retinyl palmitate a retinoid?
Yes. It is the mildest retinoid, a form of vitamin A that skin converts slowly, but it belongs to the family, so it isn’t on this page.
Why are retinoids avoided in pregnancy?
High doses of vitamin A and oral retinoid medicines are known to harm a developing baby. Far less reaches the body from skincare, but retinoids are generally avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding as a precaution. Your doctor is the right person to ask.
What can I use instead of retinol?
Peptides such as Matrixyl 3000 are the gentler route many people take. Le Collagène and L’Élixir use them, and neither contains a retinoid.
