Retinol Skincare
Retinol or Vitamin A is one of the most validated anti-ageing ingredients in dermatology. It accelerates skin cell renewal, reduces deep wrinkles, refines skin texture, and corrects uneven pigmentation. Vichy's Liftactiv range uses Pure Retinol in optimised concentrations, combined with barrier-supporting actives to deliver maximum efficacy for mature skin with exceptional tolerance — even for sensitive skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
RETINOL
What does retinol do for the skin?
Retinol accelerates the skin's natural cell turnover process, bringing fresher, younger-looking cells to the surface faster. It reduces the appearance of deep wrinkles, smooths skin texture, fades dark spots, and stimulates collagen production — making it one of the most effective anti-ageing actives available without a prescription.
Is retinol suitable for sensitive skin?
Vichy's retinol formulas are developed to be effective yet well-tolerated. The Liftactiv Pure Retinol Serum uses proprietary Retinol Guard technology for optimised release, and is tested on sensitive skin. The B3 Retinol Night Cream combines retinol with Niacinamide and Probiotic Fractions to further support the skin moisture barrier.
When should I use retinol?
Retinol should be used in the evening, as it can increase skin sensitivity to UV. Always apply SPF during the day when using retinol products. Start with a few nights per week and increase frequency as skin builds tolerance.
Can I use retinol every night?
Once skin has adjusted — typically after a few weeks — retinol can be used nightly. Vichy's formulas include barrier-supporting ingredients to help manage any initial adjustment period. If you experience irritation, reduce frequency and increase gradually.
