HPR is a multi-tasking ingredient that communicates with skin by binding to its retinoic acid receptors within skin’s surface layers. Although it connects directly with these receptors, it’s proven to be more gentle than retinoic acid (tretinoin) when applied topically, meaning more reactive and sensitive skin types might want to explore HPR as an alternative to pure retinol.

Beyond its comparably gentle nature, research has proven that this retinoic acid ester provides skin both anti-aging and blemish-reducing benefits. Studies show that HPR assisted in reducing the occurrence of mild breakouts as well as the redness associated with them with little disturbance to the skin barrier when combined with retinol glycospheres and papain glycospheres.
