Top 5 things you need to know about retinol


In the last couple of months, I’ve been very open with you about my skin care journey. From June 2018 to July 2019, my skin was at its very best. I even went to not wearing an inch of makeup on my face for a year, which was beyond amazing. My skin was in very good condition, with very, very small imperfections such as old acne scars. Come August 2019, and my skin situation came crashing down. Stress took over my life and my skin was one of the main victims. I desperately wanted to take this matter into my own hands and properly alter my skincare routine by incorporating new products. 

Au cours des derniers mois, j'ai souvent abordé le sujet de mon parcours en matière de soins de la peau. De juin 2018 à juillet 2019, ma peau était à son meilleur. Pendant près d’un an, j’ai réussi à ne pas porter une touche de maquillage, ce qui était un super exploit. Ma peau était en très bon état, avec de très, très petites imperfections comme des vieilles cicatrices d'acné. En août 2019, ma situation cutanée s'est effondrée. Le stress a envahi ma vie et ma peau a été l'une des principales victimes. Je voulais désespérément prendre ce problème en main et modifier correctement ma routine de soins en intégrant de nouveaux produits.


Over the past years, I had always read that retinol was an amazing ingredient to use to reduce the appearance of acne scars but for a long time I was scared to use retinol because of all the stories and myths around this ingredient. Two months ago, after my research, I started using the new Olay Retinol24 Moisturizer and I asked you via my Instagram Stories if you had any questions regarding retinol, so here all the information I gathered to answer your questions and tell you all about the top 5 things you need to know about retinol: 

Au cours des dernières années, j’ai fait beaucoup de recherches et j'avais toujours lu que le rétinol était un ingrédient incroyable pour réduire l'apparence des cicatrices d'acné, mais pendant longtemps j'ai eu une peur envers l’utilisation du rétinol, probablement dû à toutes les histoires et mythes autour de cet ingrédient. Il y a deux mois, après mes recherches, j'ai commencé à utiliser le nouvel hydratant pour le visage Olay Retinol24 et je vous ai demandé via mes Stories Instagram si vous aviez des questions concernant le rétinol, alors voici toutes les informations que j'ai rassemblées pour répondre à vos questions sous forme des top 5 choses que vous devez savoir sur le rétinol:


1. What is retinol? Qu'est-ce que le rétinol?

Retinol is a form of vitamin A that will brighten and smooth skin while fading signs of damage, like scars, sunspots and wrinkles. 

Le rétinol est une forme de vitamine A qui éclaircit et lisse la peau tout en atténuant les signes de dommages, comme les cicatrices, les tâches pigmentaires et les rides.


2. What does retinol do to your skin? Que fait le rétinol pour la peau? 

Retinol works by encouraging your skin cells to turn over faster than they would normally, making way for new skin. It’s sort of a ‘spring cleaning’ for your skin: out with the old, in with the new. Retinol will stimulate the production of collagen and leave your skin looking brighter and smoother. 

Le rétinol agit en encourageant les cellules de votre peau à se régénérer plus rapidement qu'elles ne le feraient normalement, laissant la place à une nouvelle peau. C’est en quelque sorte un « nettoyage de printemps » pour votre peau: on se débarrasse de l’ancien et on fait place au nouveau. Le rétinol stimule la production de collagène et laisse votre peau plus lumineuse et plus lisse. 


3. What can retinol do for me? Que peut faire le rétinol pour moi?

If you want your skin to look brighter and smoother, you should definitely try retinol. When I started using Olay Retinol24, I noticed that my skin’s texture was improved. I really noticed a difference after 10 days of using it, my skin was a lot smoother and brighter. After 3 weeks, I also noticed that the appearance of my acne scars and dark spots was reduced. 

Si vous voulez que votre peau soit plus lumineuse et plus lisse, vous devez absolument essayer le rétinol. Lorsque j’ai commencé à utiliser Olay Retinol24, j’ai remarqué que la texture de ma peau s’était nettement améliorée. Après 10 jours d'utilisation, j'ai vraiment remarqué une différence, ma peau était beaucoup plus lisse et plus lumineuse. Après 3 semaines, j'ai également remarqué que l'apparence de mes cicatrices d'acné et de mes tâches pigmentaires était réduite.


4. Is it true that retinol dries out your skin? Est-il vrai que le rétinol assèche la peau?

Most retinol products will dry out your skin. However, during my research I discovered that Olay’s Retinol24 formula not only hydrates your skin but it also improves your skin’s ability to hold onto that moisture. Why you may ask? Well the Olay Retinol24 products contain vitamin B3, which is known to help moisturize your skin and improve its resiliency and ability to hold onto moisture. After using it for many weeks now, I have not experienced any irritation or redness. 

La plupart des produits à base de rétinol assèchent la peau. Cependant, au cours de mes recherches, j'ai découvert que la formule Retinol24 d'Olay hydrate non seulement la peau, mais améliore également la capacité de la peau à retenir cette hydratation. Pourquoi vous vous demander? Et bien, les produits Olay Retinol24 contiennent de la vitamine B3, qui est connue pour aider à hydrater votre peau et améliorer sa résilience et sa capacité à retenir l'humidité. Après l'avoir utilisé pendant plusieurs semaines maintenant, je n'ai ressenti aucune irritation ou rougeur. 


5. When do I use retinol? Quand dois-je utiliser du rétinol?

It is very important to use retinol only during your nighttime routine as retinol is photosensitive and can breakdown with the sun. 

Il est très important d'utiliser le rétinol uniquement pendant votre routine du soir, car le rétinol est photosensible et peut se décomposer avec le soleil.


6. How often should I use retinol? À quelle fréquence dois-je utiliser le rétinol?

A misconception is that you can only use retinol once or twice a week because it will be too irritating to your skin. It really depends on the formula, but I have found that Olay’s new Retinol24 products are gentle enough to use everyday. 

Une idée fausse est que vous ne pouvez utiliser le rétinol qu'une ou deux fois par semaine, car il sera trop irritant pour votre peau. Cela dépend vraiment de la formule, mais j’ai découvert que les nouveaux produits Retinol24 d’Olay sont suffisamment doux pour être utilisés tous les jours.


I hope all of this information helps you have a better understanding of retinol. Looking back at my skin journey, I can now say that I’ve learned a lot about retinol and how it can improve my skin’s appearance, but I also need to learn how to manage my stress, because stress can have a direct impact on your skin and its appearance. 

J'espère que toute cette information vous aidera à mieux comprendre le rétinol. En repensant à mon parcours cutané, je peux maintenant dire que j'ai beaucoup appris sur le rétinol et comment il peut participer à améliorer l'apparence de ma peau, mais je dois aussi apprendre à gérer mon stress, car le stress peut avoir un impact direct sur votre la peau et son apparence.


Do not hesitate if you have any other questions about retinol in general and retinol products!
