Vitamin A Cream packs a lot of skin-perfecting punch, restoring bounce, resilience and youthful glow to the skin. It works to target skin texture and tone, as well as reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pores. Continued use over time offers a multitude of benefits, including a brightened, more even-looking complexion and fewer signs of ageing.
Vitamin A Cream has been specially designed to restore blemish-prone skin by purifying and visibly repairing pimples, and rebalancing oiliness.
WARNING – When taken in excess of 3000 micrograms retinol equivalents, vitamin A can cause birth defects; if you are pregnant, or considering becoming pregnant, do not use vitamin A products without consulting your doctor or pharmacist
