Retinol vs Retinal:

What's the Difference?

Wondering what the difference is between retinol and retinal? Retinol is the main circulating form of Vitamin A and a skin revitalizer, known to enhance skin radiance among many other benefits. In the body, retinol is converted into retinaldehyde, aka retinal, that is further converted to retinoic acid. Retinal is the natural precursor of retinoic acid so it is the closest thing to a prescription strength retinoid. Read on to learn more about these powerhouse retinoids.
