This study is to analyze and compare the effects of applying two topical vitamin-A derived ingredients on facial skin health, appearance and tolerability. One of these ingredients is retinol, and the other is Adapinoid, also known as Oleyl Adapalenate, a novel anti-aging ingredient.
We want to assess the effect of applying vitamin A-derived ingredients on facial skin health, appearance, and tolerability. One of these ingredients is retinol, and the other is Adapinoid, also known as Oleyl Adapalenate. In this study, participants will be randomized to either receiving a retinol product, or an Adapinoid product and they will be assessed at three follow up visits at week 4, week 8, and week 12.
