What is Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate?

As the beauty industry continues to evolve, the quest for innovative skin care ingredients that deliver transformative results without compromising skin health has become paramount. Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), a derivative of Vitamin A, has emerged as a groundbreaking component in this pursuit, heralding a new era in skin care. Elizabeth Arden, a brand at the forefront of beauty innovation, harnesses the power of HPR in its formulations, offering products that promise efficacy and gentleness.

What is HPR?

Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate belongs to the esteemed retinoid family, known for its potent anti-ageing and skin-renewing properties. Unlike its counterparts, HPR acts directly on retinoid receptors in the skin, eliminating the need for conversion into retinoic acid. This mechanism facilitates increased cell turnover, collagen synthesis, and a notable reduction in pigmentation, making HPR an ideal ingredient for those seeking to revitalise their complexion.

How is HPR Different from Other Retinoids?

The uniqueness of HPR lies in its direct action mechanism and its gentle profile. By bypassing the conversion process required by other retinoids, HPR minimises the risk of irritation commonly associated with retinol use. This attribute makes it a suitable option for all skin types, including those with sensitive skin, allowing for the rejuvenating benefits of retinoids without the potential for adverse effects.

Incorporating HPR into Your Skincare Routine

Adopting HPR into your skin care regime promises enhanced skin texture and resilience. Elizabeth Arden's RETINOL + HPR Ceramide Rapid Skin-Renewing Water Cream exemplifies the ideal incorporation of HPR, offering a luxurious yet effective solution to skin ageing concerns. For optimal results, integrate this product into your evening routine, following a gentle cleanser and complementing it with a hydrating serum or moisturiser. Always remember to apply sunscreen during the day to protect the newly revitalised skin from UV damage.
For those new to retinoids, starting in your mid to late 20s is advisable, gradually acclimating your skin to these potent ingredients. The RETINOL + HPR Ceramide Rapid Skin-Renewing Water Cream is designed to fit seamlessly into any skin care regimen, promising not only rejuvenation but also hydration and protection.
