1. DESCRIPTION OF GRANACTIVE RETINOID
Granactive Retinoid is a modern anti-aging ingredient belonging to the family of retinoids. In contrast to classic retinol, it is characterized by excellent skin tolerability combined with high efficacy. Granactive Retinoid is a stable form of Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), developed to significantly reduce the typical side effects of conventional retinoids, such as redness, dryness, or flaking.
As an innovative advancement of retinol technology, Granactive Retinoid binds directly to retinoid receptors in the skin without requiring conversion into retinoic acid. This allows it to act more quickly and effectively against visible signs of skin aging.
