How Encapsulated Retinol Sandwiching Can Help Sensitive Skin

 

If the idea of trying a retinol scares you, then you’re not the only one. While retinol is considered to be a magical ingredient for many, one can’t help but be wary of the side effects. However, once the phase of irritation gets done with, the skin can visibly look renewed and youthful. If you wish to help your skin adjust well to the strong and potent ingredient, it’s wise to opt for retinol sandwiching. 

Applying a retinol in between two layers of a moisturizer (a retinol sandwich) can help you a lot if you’re starting out with a encapsulated retinol. Since the moisturizer acts like a barrier, there’s way less penetration of the product deep into the skin and can help sensitive skin in a lot of ways. 

Once the skin has adapted the usage of retinol in two or three weeks, you can then remove the first layer of the moisturizer and apply a retinol on cleansed skin, which will then be followed up with an emollient-rich moisturizer. 

If you’re looking for a retinol that does its job well, you should go for UniQaya’s 1% encapsulated retinol serum. The serum technology helps the retinol have higher stability and more penetration potential. It repairs the skin inside out and rejuvenates the skin with its set of natural ingredients.
