Skincare has been the rage among all Gen Zs – especially getting ahead of the inevitable signs of aging in as early as their mid 20s. Formed at a young age, skincare habits and routines are present specifically to keep skin healthy and flawless, as well as to boost confidence.

Dealing with these signs, such as blemishes, fine lines, and wrinkles is definitely a task that needs early action – enter retinol. Derived from Vitamin A, retinol has consistently been shown to offer a number of benefits toskin that respond to the needs of an increasing young market. Taking the world of skincare by storm in just a few years, retinol products have consistently surpassed other rising products as studies show that young consumers prefer to spend their money on products that they think deliver the best results.

Despite its popularity, there is still a lot to learn and unlearn about this cult favorite. Kiehl’s, a top brand in the beauty industry and a pioneer in retinol-based products, held its first Kiehl’s Klassroom last July 11to finally shed light on everything skincare and retinol, which was attended by influencers in the skincare and lifestyle space.

Led by renowned dermatologist Dr. Gaile Robredo-Vitas and the Kiehl’s team of experts, guests had marathon learnings on retinol, including its natural ability to help improve tone and texture of most skin types by promoting cell regeneration in effect makingthe skin younger looking and firmer to the touch. The team also shared case studies with the audience, debunking popular misconceptions about the product and the importance of classifying retinol for early and regular users from the new users. The session ended with the guests learning Dos and Don’ts on proper usage to get the most out of the product.

Influencers and personalities who attended the event were very interested about the product. Baus Rufo said,“retinol, for me, has always been a buzzword when it comes to skincare. I think a lot of people swear by it — making it their holy grail. I personally haven’t tried it, so I’m excited to start my retinol journey with Kiehl’s.”

“I’ve been hearing a lot about retinol on TikTok, but I’m so scared to try it. But after I heard the talk today on retinol, I’m actually quite excited. It’s going to improve my skin, get rid of wrinkles — I’m very excited to try it out,” adds Camille Ang.

Kiehl’s Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Retinol Serum

Already popular to Kieh’s lovers is the Micro Dose Retinol Serum, but the brand launched the Fast Release Wrinkle-reducing Retinol serum at the event. It comes in a uniquely designed bottle that mixes nature and science with innovation and technology, and the retinol itself comes in powder form that uses the bottle cap in a flip and mix motion to infuse the serum and activate the product. This innovative powder form keeps the retinol remain safe and stable outside of the liquid serum before unleashing its maximum potency and efficiency.

Most retinol brands have only 0.1%, unlike Kiehl’s Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Retinol Serum that is formulated with 0.3% pure retinol. This works wonders for current and regular retinol users who start feeling the effects of visibly reduced wrinkles, improved skin firmness, and more radiant skin in as little as five days.

Retinol products are normally applied on dry skin and used during daytime paired with sunscreen. Kiehl’sFast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Retinol Serum, however, is unique as a product that can be used during nighttime. Start by cleansing face, pat dry, apply toner and eye cream—then Kiehl’s Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Retinol Serum.
