Hannah Betts' Better... Not Younger: It used to scare me... so why am I finally using retinol?

Daily Mail  

For almost a quarter of a century I’ve been writing about beauty, so one might assume that I deploy all the high-tech, age-defying lotions and potions at my manicured fingertips. Professor Matthias Aust, a plastic surgeon specialising in skin regeneration, says retinoids protect and regenerate the complexion It’s not an antagonist to your complexion, but a bonus; a protector and regenerator. Instead, it has what it calls a ‘step-up’ system from 1 to 5 — you start with a low concentration and the skin gets used to it. A novice such as myself should start with the brand’s basic Environ Skin EssentiA AVST-1 or its more luxurious Environ Youth EssentiA C-Quence Serum 1, mixed with Environ Antioxidant Defence Creme. She loves Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser, Clarins Soothing After Sun Balm, and Vaseline as a ‘moisturiser, hand cream and foot softener’.
