La Roche-Posay Effaclar Adapalene Gel

Once upon a time, prescription-strength retinoids used to be available only with a prescription from your dermatologist. Now, you can get the same prescription-strength treatment over the counter with the La Roche-Posay Effaclar Adapalene Gel. It’s a daily topical retinoid that helps clear and prevent blackheads, whiteheads, acne blemishes and clogged pores.

La Roche-Posay Redermic R Anti-Aging Retinol Cream

Apply this retinol cream at night or in the morning after your sunscreen to help diminish deep wrinkles. The velvety, non-greasy formula also works to reduce the appearance of premature sun damage while smoothing your skin’s texture. Just keep in mind that retinol is known for making your skin more sensitive to the sun, so be sure to apply and reapply sunscreen during the day.
