Adapinoid® is the only third generation retinoid for cosmetic use. This novel active is a precursor of adapalene which is proven to increase collagen, reduce photoaging, balance skin tone, soothe inflammation, reduce pores, and clear acne-prone skin. Unlike first generation retinoids (vitamin A types like retinol and retinoic acid), Adapinoid has far fewer toxicity, stability, and skin-irritation concerns. Clinically tested to be superior to retinol with 2x greater wrinkle reduction, 10x greater redness reduction, and 70x greater TEWL reduction.
