Vitamin A appears in several forms. Retinol (Vitamin A Alcohol), Retinal (Vitamin A Aldehyde) and Tretinod (Retinoic Acid) among others.

Retinol is the most important form of Vitamin A. It is in its purest and most active of vitamin A.

Retinol is mostly used to smooth away wrinkles, decrease fine lines, increase moisture and elasticity, even out rough blotchy discoloration and bring back the natural color and tone to the skin. This improves complexion and glows on the face.
