The Skin Nerd: there's no need to be afraid of retinoids

In my eyes, and in the eyes of nearly every skin expert, many types of vitamin A are essential for skin health and they are ingredients that I feel everyone should have in their routine, in the form of retinoids and beta carotene from plants, for example. 

In our skin, vitamin A assists in skin cell renewal. You may have heard about vitamin A but aren’t certain about what products you’ll find it in, or you have heard of retinol but weren’t aware it was vitamin A. I promise you it is not as confusing as it sounds!
