About this deal

Remember to wait 20-30 minutes before applying any other products to your face after using retinol! So we’ve been talking about glycolic acid quite a bit since this is one of the star ingredients in Nip and Fab skincare products. But what exactly is glycolic acid and how can it help your skin? Below we’ll give you the details on glycolic acid, as well as a few other key ingredients used in Nip and Fab skincare products.

Retinoids don’t work the same for everyone . If you suffer from rosacea, eczema, or psoriasis, it's best not to use retinol at all, as it can be too harsh on skin that needs a gentle touch. Remember that using retinol isn’t a race —you could be using retinoids for many more decades as part of your skincare routine and studies have found that even super low-strength retinoids had the same anti-ageing effects on skin as moderate retinoids over the same length of time. There are lots of different types of retinoids, and retinol is just one of these. Similar to how there are lots of different types of fruit, but not all fruit is the same or has the same properties - a strawberry is very different to an orange! So, what is retinol? Retinol is part of the retinoid family, which is an umbrella term used for all vitamin A skincare derivatives.

On Influenster, some customers also stated that Nip + Fab products didn’t do anything to improve the quality of their skin. Others even reported their complexions became worse after using their cleansers and serums. However, most people should be absolutely fine with using this product, even if you have sensitive skin. Many dermatologists agree that sensitive skin can be trained to tolerate retinol and there are products on the market containing retinol that are specifically designed for sensitive skin. One problem with several of the Nip and Fab skincare products, such as the Nip and Fab glycolic pads and the Dragon’s Blood Fix Plumping Serum, is that they contain high concentrations of denatured alcohol. Denatured alcohol is well known to cause skin dryness, irritation, and even disruption of the skin barrier, especially when used in high concentrations. Where are Nip and Fab skincare products sold? For example, incorporating products that contain antioxidants and hydrating ingredients such as hyaluronic acid will allow your skin to remain nourished after using retinol. The Dragon’s Blood Fix collection is our hugely popular range of hydrating and plumping skincare which works great with our retinol range. Apply the morning after a retinol treatment to take your skin’s hydration to the next level.

Bakuchiol: A naturally occurring alternative to retinol that promises similar results, added to ensure a synergistic complex that encourages cell turnover further. Retinol’s main purpose is to reduce signs of ageing and to help fade pigmentation and acne scars, while also unclogging and reducing pores, so we assessed whether incorporating this regime into our skincare routine could really achieve this. Owing to the fact retinol makes your skin more sensitive to UV, we also made sure we used SPF every day. Blogs such as The Derm Review and Diana’s Healthy Living have also praised Nip + Fab for their effective products.

Results of Nip+Fab’s retinol fix regime kit

Nip and Fab Glycolic Fix Daily Cleansing Pads are single-use pads soaked in 2.8% glycolic acid that are designed to retexturize and resurface skin. Glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that has a small molecular weight, which means it can penetrate the skin very easily. It exerts anti-inflammatory, keratolytic, and antioxidant effects, and functions as both an exfoliator and a moisturizer. Glycolic acid exfoliates the skin by targeting corneocytes (dead skin cells) in a process called corneocyte desquamation. By enhancing their breakdown and increasing the separation of skin cells, the rate of cell turnover is increased, leading to smoother, more radiant skin.
