Modern life is making incredible demands on our biology, much of which hasn’t changed very much since the Stone Age; and the jarring discrepancies between our 21st century lives and millennia-old bodies and minds manifest for many in the form of chronic stress and hormonal imbalances.
Adult acne generally falls into two categories: persistent and late-onset. Adults with persistent acne are experiencing a continuation or relapse of acne from adolescence into adulthood and middle age. Late-onset acne (generally 25 years old and above) can happen to everyone irrespective of prior acne condition(s) during teenage years.
Both persistent and late-onset acne more frequently affect women and are often associated with inflammation, changes in pigmentation, and scarring, which cause the appearance of premature skin ageing.
As the largest organ of our body, the skin is quick to showcase this internal turmoil with the convergence of pronounced adult acne and accelerated skin ageing, two issues that were once thought of as mutually exclusive, and for which no unified treatment approach exists… until now.
Dermalogica’s NEW Retinol Clearing Oil combines two powerhouses into one formula for the first time: Salicylic Acid to rapidly clear and prevent breakouts, and potent, time-released Retinol to help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. Best of all, this high-performance night oil visibly renews skin overnight, delivering clearer skin and reducing signs of premature ageing within seven days. Powered by skin-mimicking phytolipids: Retinol Clearing Oil features a lipid-based delivery system that actively nourishes with Argan, Rosehip Seed and Golden Jojoba oils. This helps to optimise results, minimize irritation and promote a healthy-looking glow.
