Retinol is widely recognized as one of the most effective anti-aging ingredients in the cosmetics world. It's also a popular treatment for dermatological conditions such as acne and psoriasis. However, its use is challenging and often limited by adverse effects such as redness, flaking, extreme dryness, and photosensitivity. Furthermore, it's unstable in formulations and requires special care when exposed to the sun, limiting its application.
Today, innovation in organic cosmetics offers a natural, safe and scientifically effective alternative , NovoRetin™.
What is NovoRetin™?
NovoRetin™ is a 100% plant-based active ingredient developed from the resin of Pistacia lentiscus , a plant grown on the island of Chios, Greece. This resin is also known as mastic gum and has a long tradition of therapeutic uses.
Its potential has been revitalized and can now be incorporated into modern cosmetic formulations. It is a stable , safe , and biocompatible active ingredient with comparable action to retinol, without its limitations.
How does it work?
Unlike traditional retinol, which needs to be converted in the skin into retinoic acid, NovoRetin™ works directly by increasing the levels of natural retinoic acid already present in the skin , inhibiting its degradation.
With more retinoic acid available, the skin experiences similar effects to traditional retinol, without its adverse effects.
Proven Benefits
NovoRetin™ has been evaluated in clinical studies*, showing very positive results, such as:
- Visible reduction of wrinkles, fine lines and skin imperfections
- Improvement of skin texture, in terms of elasticity, luminosity and density;
- In increasing hydration levels;
- Reduction of oil levels and pore size;
- Effective care for mature and acne-prone skin;
- Safety for continuous daytime use;
Why Choose NovoRetin™?
Skin with marked conditions that seeks effective care that guarantees deep nutrition and anti-aging action, stable , natural and without the drawbacks of retinol , finds NovoRetin™ to be the right choice.
Ideal for those who want to treat signs of aging, improve skin texture, and treat acne with a gentler, more effective, and intelligent approach.
