Retinoid stabilization matrix: LorealRecent Research Landscape

Rapid oxidation of high-concentration retinoids leads to ingredient degradation and loss of efficacy. These innovations utilize specific chemical matrices to shield active species from environmental triggers.

What technical problems is Loreal addressing in Retinoid stabilization matrix?

Ultraviolet induced skin degradation

(23)evidences

Accumulation of advanced glycation end-products leads to loss of skin elasticity and structural integrity. Preventing this degradation maintains tissue resilience and slows visible aging.

Retinoid photochemical instability

(16)evidences

Retinol is highly susceptible to rapid breakdown when exposed to light and oxygen. Preventing this chemical instability ensures the active ingredient remains potent and safe for topical application.
