Skincare industry trends in retinoid ingredients

Overview

The skincare market is seeing increased attention toward retinoid derivatives for anti-aging and skin texture management. Retinal, or retinaldehyde, is noted as a potent alternative to retinol because it requires only a single conversion step into retinoic acid, whereas retinol requires two. This shorter pathway may allow retinal to achieve results at lower concentrations.

In the Korean beauty sector, various brands are utilizing these ingredients in diverse formulations. Examples include products combining retinol with Cica and hyaluronic acid, or serums featuring retinal paired with bakuchiol. Additionally, new ingredients such as STARENOL, derived from magnolia bark extract, are being introduced to the market.
