  • Retinol for pigment spots and fine lines

    Hi, Do you have a retinol product to recommend for lightening pigment spots and for fine lines? I've been using this one from Anua for a while, but I was thinking of exploring a new product with a slightly higher dose of retinol in it. If it's recommended?

      Hey Karoline! How fun that you’re already using retinol – it’s one of the most well-documented ingredients against both pigmentation spots and fine lines. Now you’re considering trying a serum with higher strength, and it can absolutely be effective as long as your skin tolerates it - come back again! Check out this one from TO lyko.com/no/the-ordinary/the-ordinary-retinol-0.5--in-squalane-30ml But it’s good to know: 🔍 The EU is in the process of implementing new regulations for products containing retinol and retinyl esters (Norway follows the EU's cosmetic regulations through the EEA). For regular cosmetics, the limit may become a maximum of 0.3% retinol, which means that several brands are already changing their formulas or phasing out products with higher doses. It’s still not entirely clear when the regulations will take effect, but changes are underway. However, there are also other retinoids to try in the future. Good luck 🤍
