That’s because this retinoid is so new, there isn’t much research on it, yet. ![]() Heck, there isn’t even much proof that it can fight wrinkles! ![]() There’s NO proof (yet) that Granactive Retinoid is more effective than retinol. A far cry from the promised 2%…īut does it work, at least? Rumour has it, Granactive Retinoid is more effective than retinol at fighting wrinkles and acne.

It’s also the way every extract and technology is made out to be innovative or groundbreaking even when it’s old news. Or that models wear so-obviously-fake-you-can-spot-them-a-mile-off lashes on mascara ads. It’s not just how we’re made to feel worthless for not looking like the photoshopped version of Faith Hill ( because even Faith Hill doesn’t look like Faith Hill in real life).
