The 7 Best New Retinol Skin Care Products

If this hero ingredient isn't part of your skincare regimen yet, it's time.

Glow Recipe is known for its colorful, food-inspired products, so it makes sense that one of the brand's latest launches puts both avocado and retinol in the spotlight. This rich and luxurious sleeping mask contains encapsulated retinol, which allows retinol to sit on the surface of the skin longer while releasing small amounts at a time. This approach means the retinol doesn't feel as aggressive even though it's still working. You can apply it as a wash-off mask, or apply it before bed and rinse it off in the morning.

Peter Thomas Roth just debuted a new collection called Pro Strength, which features an Exfoliating Super Peel, Lactic Pore Treatment, and the Retinoid Peptide Serum. The latter contains 10 perent granactive retinoid and 5 percent hexapeptide for a super potent anti-aging treatment. It has a thin and lightweight consistency that you leave on without washing off. Because of its strength, we recommend starting with once or twice weekly application and then working your way up to nighty use.
