Features

Stable Retinol Derivative

Retinol is unstable and requires technique to stabilize.

“LINO technology” (= Linoleic acid esterification) offers a stable chemical structure

making it easy to use while the derivative is still recognized by cells as retinol (when cleaved by esterase)

Retinyl Linoleate is an ester of retinol and linoleic acid provides double skincare benefits

namely anti-aging (as retinol) and skin brightening (as linoleic acid).
