Frequently Asked Questions

    Both retinal and retinol are forms of vitamin A, but retinal is one conversion step closer to retinoic acid (the active form your skin uses), making it potentially more efficient. Retinal can deliver faster visible results while remaining gentler than prescription retinoids. Retinol requires two conversion steps but is still highly effective and well-tolerated by most skin types. Our retinol formulas feature a combination of fast-acting retinoid, slow-release retinol, and retinol boosters to provide the benefits of both approaches with minimal irritation.

    Generally speaking retinol is for first signs of ageing and retinal is being used for advanced signs of anti-ageing.

    If you're new to retinol, start by using it 2-3 times per week in the evening, then gradually increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance. Most people can work up to nightly use within a few weeks. Always apply retinol to clean, dry skin and follow with moisturiser. Our Retinol Youth Renewal Serum and Night Cream are formulated with both fast-acting and slow-release retinol for effective results with minimal irritation, making them easier to incorporate into daily routines.

    Apply retinol products in the evening after cleansing and toning. Use a pea-sized amount for your entire face, avoiding the immediate eye area unless using a product specifically formulated for eyes like our Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum. Follow with moisturiser to lock in hydration. Always wear broad-spectrum SPF during the day when using retinol, as it can increase sun sensitivity. Start slowly if you're new to retinol, gradually building up frequency to allow your skin to adjust.

    Retinol pairs well with several ingredients. Hyaluronic acid is an excellent companion, providing hydration to counteract any dryness. Niacinamide works well with retinol to calm skin and support the barrier. You can use vitamin C in the morning and retinol at night to avoid any potential irritation from combining them. However, be cautious when combining retinol with other exfoliating acids like salicylic acid or glycolic acid. If using both, apply them at different times of day or on alternating days to prevent over-exfoliation and irritation.

    Retinol is a powerhouse ingredient that addresses multiple skin concerns. It's most known for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production and accelerating cell turnover. Retinol also helps fade the look of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, improve skin texture, and unclogs pores and improve skin texture and the appearance of blemish-prone skin. Our retinol skincare products deliver these benefits while minimising dryness and irritation commonly associated with traditional retinol formulas.

    Many users begin noticing improvements in glow and smoothness within a few weeks, while firmer-looking skin and visible wrinkle reduction may become more noticeable after consistent use over 4–8 weeks.

    Many newer retinal formulas are encapsulated for slower release, helping deliver visible anti-ageing benefits while remaining gentler on skin than traditional retinoids.

    Yes. Advanced retinal formulas can help improve the appearance of skin firmness and elasticity, particularly around areas like the jawline, cheeks and neck where hormonal ageing often becomes more visible.

    During perimenopause and menopause, declining oestrogen can contribute to thinner, less firm-looking skin. Retinal helps support smoother, firmer and more youthful-looking skin by accelerating cell turnover and improving the appearance of fine lines.

    Choose Retinol Youth Renewal Serum if your primary concern is fine lines, early visible signs of ageing and maintaining smoother, youthful-looking skin. It is ideal as an entry retinoid for nightly renewal and overall skin rejuvenation.

    Choose Retinal ReSculpt Overnight Treatment if you are experiencing more advanced signs of hormonal ageing such as visible loss of firmness, deeper wrinkles, sagging or reduced skin density. It is formulated to help visibly sculpt, firm and improve skin resilience overnight.

    Start by considering your skin type and primary concerns. If you're new to retinoids or have sensitive skin, look for formulas with encapsulated or slow-release retinol. For those with more resilient skin or experience with retinol, products featuring retinal (a more direct form of vitamin A) may provide faster results.

    Consider your specific concerns: retinol serums work well for overall anti-ageing, while retinol eye treatments target delicate areas, and retinol creams provide both treatment and hydration.

    Generally speaking retinol is used for first signs of ageing, whereas retinal targets advanced signs of ageing.

What Makes Murad’s Retinal ReSculpt So Powerful?

 

Murad’s Retinal ReSculpt Collection uses encapsulated retinal, one of the most potent Vitamin A derivatives that works harder and faster than retinol. Think of it like a HIIT workout plus shapewear for your face: it lifts, firms and tightens skin with visible results in just 4 weeks. The pharmaceutical-grade delivery system ensures that the retinal penetrates deeper and more effectively than standard retinoids, helping to smooth deep wrinkles, restore elasticity and redefine contours, especially in the lower face-, jawline- and neck area.

 

Why Retinal Stands Out:

 

  • Fast results: Clinically shown to visibly lift sagging skin, increase elasticity and smooth texture within just two weeks.
  • Precision delivery: Encapsulated retinal penetrates deeper for transformative effects, without the dryness or irritation common with strong Vitamin A formulas.
  • Targeted solutions: Includes face, eye and body treatments, each formulated to address:

 

This collection is perfect if you want a next-level anti-ageing skincare experience, whether you're concerned about sagging, deep wrinkles, or loss of firmness.

 


How to Use for Best Results:

  1. Always use Murad Retinal ReSculpt products in the evening
  2. Cleanse with your preferred Murad cleanser to prep skin.
  3. Apply Retinal ReSculpt™ Overnight Treatment to face and neck nightly.
  4. Use Retinal ReSculpt™ Eye Lift Treatment around eyes for targeted firming.
  5. Finish face with Retinal ReScuplt Overnight Cream. 
  6. Apply Retinal ReSculpt Body Treatment on saggy or crepey body areas where needed.
  7. Follow with moisturiser and SPF during the day (retinal increases sun sensitivity).
