1. WHAT DOES “DERMOCOSMETIC” MEAN?
“Dermocosmetic” is the term used to describe products at the intersection of cosmetic beauty and skin
health. Dermocosmetic products are similar to formulas you’d find in a dermatologist’s office or med spa.
RETINOL & RETINOIDS
2. WHAT IS RETINOL?
Retinol is a derivative of vitamin A. Our bodies naturally produce vitamin A from the foods we eat, and
it’s considered critical for healthy cell development. Topical application of retinol can help improve
skin’s structural integrity by supporting natural production of collagen and elastin, along with improved
cell turnover. Many dermatologists consider topical retinol to be the gold-standard ingredient for both
preventing and reversing the visible signs of aging. It’s one of the most effective retinoids you can use
without a doctor’s prescription.
3. HOW DOES RETINOL WORK?
Retinol supports natural collagen and elastin production, improving the appearance of collagen-depleted
skin. Collagen is a protein, also known as “skin’s building block,” that can diminish with age as well as sun
exposure. Replenishing this critical protein is critical to achieve younger-looking skin. In addition, retinol
stimulates surface skin cell renewal, so skin appears more as it did when you were younger.
4. THE RETINOL IN TIMEWISE REPAIR® VOLU-FIRM® NIGHT TREATMENT WITH
RETINOL IS ENCAPSULATED FOR STABILITY. IF THE RETINOL IN RETINOL
0.5 IS NOT ENCAPSULATED, WILL ITS EFFICACY DIMINISH OVER TIME?
Because the retinol in TimeWise Repair® products is encapsulated, it’s protected against degradation from
air and light, which helps to preserve its stability and efficacy. In addition, encapsulation provides a delayed
release to help minimize potential irritation. The pure retinol in retinol 0.5 is not encapsulated. Therefore,
to ensure retinol 0.5 maintains efficacy throughout its shelf life, the serum is manufactured in an oxygen
deprived environment and is packaged in an airtight tube.
5. WHICH MARY KAY® PRODUCTS CONTAIN RETINOL?
Mary Kay Clinical Solutions™ Retinol 0.5 contains pure, potent retinol at 0.5% concentration. This is a highly
concentrated level (while still being nonprescription).
TimeWise Repair® Volu-Firm® Night Treatment With Retinol and TimeWise Repair® Volu-Fill® Deep Wrinkle
Filler contain a delayed-release retinol encapsulated within microspheres and delivered at a lower
concentration to help minimize potential irritation.
