FAQs Moon Balm
Retinol is one a the greatest and most researched ingredients in the world of dermatology. Technically, retinol is only one of many vitamin A-derivatives that are converted via chemical processes intobiologically available vitamin A (retinoic acid) in the skin. Retinol offers a smorgasbord of benefits, such as:
Stimulating collagen and elastin and increasing cell turnover to create more smooth and even skin. This is why you'll often see retinol in products targeted at aging skin. Reversing sun damage, such as hyperpigmentation and loss of collagen.
Regulating sebum production in the sebaceous glands to minimise acne – this function is what put vitamin A on the map to start with. Reducing the look of post-blemish scarring and hyperpigmentation.
Thickening the dermis, so skin looks fuller and plumped.
YES YES and YES! Vitamin A is the golden standard in treating acne since the 1950s (!). Vitamin A is the active component both in topical acne creams and oral medication (like Isotretinoin).
In an in vivo-study on the retinol molecule used in Moon Balm (0,1% sodium retinoyl hyaluronate), the look of acne was significally improved in 6 weeks, and sebum was decreased by 36%.
Yes, teenagers who are experiencing breakouts or acne can safely use Moon Balm and get the blemish-calming effefcts from a gentle retinol. When using (non-prescriptive) retinol on teenage skin, it's important that the retinol molecule used is clinically tested and doesn't increase the risk of sun burn, since many teenagers don't yet have the habit of using sunscreen daily ;) In Moon Balm, we used clinically tested Sodium Retinoyl Hyaluronate, which is a great option for young skin since it's gentle, non-irritating and non-drying.
You CAN, but here's the thing. Retinol molecules are often sensitive to the sun, and becomes less effective when exposed to UV-light.
You can use Moon Balm in the morning to get all the soothing, hydrating and barrier-loving effects of the other ingredients (like centella, purslane, ceramides and squalane), but the retinoic acid molecule works best at night, under the moon ;)
With that said, Moon Balm is a great, lightweight everyday moisturiser that sits great under SPF and makeup.
Pregnant women should be careful about high levels of vitamin A. However, the major sources of Vitamin A comes from diet and supplements. If you're pregnant and looking for a an effective way to treat breakouts and troubled skin, azelaic acid is your best choice. Our redness-fading, hyperpigmentation-busting serum Cloud Milk contains 10% azelaic acid, and works a charm on hormonal, fluctuating skin. Learn more about retinol and pregnancy HERE!
Cloud Water and Moon Balm are a match made in heaven to balance and calm skin, unclog pores (Cloud Water, prevent new breakouts and help to fade post-blemish marks. However, if you are sensitive or new to active skincare, we suggest that you use them in separate routines. For example Moon Balm at night and Cloud Water in the morning, or on alternate days (skin cycling).
As is always the case with skincare, it's a case of "trial and error" and you have to find what works best for YOU.
