NEW Vegan Rewind Serum is specially formulated with 1% Microencapsulated retinol. Microencapsulation aids in delivering retinol to the skin with less irritation, increased stability and deeper penetration. Here's how it works:

Microencapsulated retinol works by surrounding the retinol molecule with a protective layer, shielding it from degradation and allows for a controlled release[1] into the skin. This optimized delivery system offers several benefits, including increased stability[2] of the retinol, reduced irritation[3] and deeper penetration[4] into the skin.

1% Hyaluronic acid works synergistically with the retinol, providing soothing hydration to the epidermis, leaving skin looking plump and refreshed. 

Vegan Ingredients: I incorporated rice extract (Oryza Sativa), plant-based glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid derived from fermented plants to replace all animal derived ingredients to ensure vegan standards.

Rewind Retinol Serum is safe to use and is great for those with sensitive skin who may not tolerate traditional retinol well. 

Directions: Apply Rewind Retinol Serum daily to clean skin right before bed. It is recommended to apply sunscreen (minimum SPF 30) before sun exposure while using this serum. 

[1],[3] Controlled Release and Reduced Irritation: 

Retinol encapsulation allows for a controlled and sustained release of retinol into the skin. Instead of releasing all the retinol at once, which can lead to irritation, the microcapsules slowly dissolve, delivering retinol gradually over time. This slow-release mechanism helps to minimize the potential for redness, peeling, and other side effects associated with traditional retinol.

[2] Protection and Stability:

Retinol, a form of vitamin A, is notoriously unstable and can degrade when exposed to light, air, and heat. Encapsulation creates a protective barrier around the retinol, preventing it from breaking down before it reaches the skin. This means the retinol remains potent and effective for a longer period, both in the product and on the skin.

[4] Deeper Penetration: 

Encapsulation can also improve the delivery of retinol into the deeper layers of the skin (dermis) where it can be most effective. The protective layer can help the retinol bypass the skin's surface and penetrate more effectively, leading to better results in terms of collagen production and wrinkle reduction.
