Retinol Lotion

Retinol Lotion is a good choice if you want to add retinol to you skin care regimen in a multi-purpose product that also provides moisturization. Lotion is thinner than cream and thicker than serum and is a good choice for normal to oily skin. You can select a "stand alone" lotion that provides retinol only, one that provides retinol along with other skin treatment products or one that doubles as a moisturizer. If you are using it as a day time moisturizer, look for one that includes an SPF, as retinol increases the skin's sensitivity to sun exposure.

Also, if you are sensitive to retinol, a lotion or cream may be a better choice, as it may prevent the irritation and severe exfoliation that some users experience.

Many lotions that claim to include retinol do have have the proper packaging to preserve it. Retinol is destroyed by exposure to air and light - so the packining must be either an air tight opaque pump or tube. Jars or bottles will allow the product to quickly become worthless.

Recommended Retinol Lotion

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer (contains SPF 20 and Retinol) and replaces moisturizer, sunscreen, primer and/or foundation and a daytime retinol product. For more info & reviews - Neutrogena Tinted Moisturizer

Avon Anew All in One Lotion is an outstanding multi-purpose product that contains retinol, glycolic acid, anti-oxidants, a light moisturizer and a sunscreen (SPF 15). It is a great product for normal to oily skin and especially for those prone to acne, breakouts, blackheads or clogged pores. Even if you don't have any of those, this is a great product to try if you are looking to just use one skin care product in the morning.

Retinol Serum - if you are looking to add retinol to your skin care regimen without changing products, your best bet is to simply add a retinol serum.
Retinol Cream may be a better choice if you have normal to dry skin and need more moisture.
