Youthful Skin Without the Trade-Off: Discover the AlphaRet Family by skinbetter
Written by: Hannah Eltounsy
When it comes to skincare, signs of aging—like fine lines, wrinkles, and changes in texture—are among the most common concerns. While proven ingredients such as alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and retinoids can help, they often come with discomforts that make consistent use challenging.
skinbetter’s breakthrough AlphaRet technology changes that. By pairing AHAs and retinoids into one innovative molecule, it delivers effective skin rejuvenation with significantly less irritation—so you don’t have to choose between results and comfort.
The Downsides of Traditional AHAs & Retinoids
AHAs can cause:
- Irritation (especially when layered with other actives)
- Increased skin sensitivity
- Itching
- Burning
Retinoids often lead to:
- Redness
- Dryness
- Peeling
- Flaking
- Intense irritation
The Innovation: AlphaRet Technology
AlphaRet is a proprietary skinbetter technology that bonds an AHA and a retinoid into a single, controlled-release molecule. This slow-release delivery helps dramatically reduce the common side effects associated with either ingredient used alone.
The result? Visible skin rejuvenation—smoother texture, improved tone, and reduced signs of aging—without the usual dryness, redness, or sensitivity. It also plays well with other products, making it ideal for a comprehensive skincare routine.
