373. Retinol vs. Tretinoin (vs. Bakuchiol): Which Vitamin A Is Right For Me?


Listen Later

This week on Expert, we’re breaking down one of skincare’s most powerful ingredients: Vitamin A, helping you figure out which version is right for your skin.

From over-the-counter retinols to prescription-strength tretinoin and gentle plant-based bakuchiol, skin therapist Tegan explains how each one works, who they suit best, and how to use them safely without wrecking your barrier. Plus, we bust common Vitamin A myths, including whether it actually thins your skin and if it’s safe to use in summer.

In Win, Bin or Recycle, we’re talking retinol body care and whether your limbs really need their own age management routine.

Plus, in Adore Anonymous, a listener asks: Do I actually need a different sunscreen for my face than my body?

Everything mentioned:

  • Alpha-H Liquid Gold Exfoliating Treatment 100ml 

  • Cosmedix Define Age-Defying Treatment - Retinol Serum
  • Medik8 Crystal Retinal 3 30ml
  • INNISFREE Retinol Cica Repair Pad 60ea

Credits:

  • Hosts: Tegan Mac and Sadaf Razi
  • Producer: Jasmine Riley
