5 Reasons Why Dermatologists Are Recommending These Non-Toxic Retinol Alternatives For Anti-Aging
Staff Editorial Team
November 3rd, 2024 1:15PM EDT
If you're anything like us, you've wanted something that's potent and effective enough to rewind the clock and fix fine lines, wrinkles, crepe-y skin, dullness, sagging, and dark spots. And retinol has sounded like it may be just that...
But retinol can have some major downsides... Possible damage to your skin barrier, the famous retinol purge/"uglies", and even endocrine-disruption, just to name a few.
Because of these, dermatologists and estheticians everywhere are now recommending gentler, non-toxic alternatives to retinol – many of which are even more effective than retinol for anti-aging!
So instead of retinol... what about a fix shown to be 2.5x as effective as retinol, but without the sabotaging side-effects?* And that is backed by over 3,000+ published studies to be safe and non-toxic...
Get ready to hear about L'AMARUE everywhere, a French-inspired brand loved by derms and estheticians. Their breakthrough Retinol Alternative System is powered by patent-pending natural Heart to Heart Complex® technology – and it's beneficial for reversing even the most stubborn signs of aging.
Unlike typical remedies that address surface issues, this system delves deep into cell signaling, and has been shown to boost collagen production by up to 400%, heal inflammation at all severities, and speed healing by 4x.*
Retinol 101
You probably have heard of retinol... but what does it actually do?
Retinol is increases your skin's cell turnover (or, regeneration). The issue is, this can sometimes get out of control, and affects your skin in negative ways, like dryness, breakouts, barrier damage, and more. This is why most people experience skin flaking, redness, and more when trying it.
L'AMARUE's Retinol Alternative System is a 100% natural innovation for treatment-grade results without the harsh side-effects. And you can get it 25% off today with the code RET25.
Smooth fine lines, hydrate, fade dark spots, calm inflammation and irritation, and soothe redness without leaving behind a greasy residue or sensitizing the skin.
Here's why L'AMARUE is becoming the new go-to recommendation by dermatologists and estheticians for a professional-grade glow:
1. It Works Up to 3x Better and Faster
Don't want to wait months for results? You don't need to anymore, according to reviewers. L'AMARUE's Retinol Alternative System is powered by its Heart to Heart Complex® technology to help smooth the look of fine lines in days, not months like most retinol products. The breakthrough anti-aging products have a cult following for their overnight transformations. With instantly noticeable brightening and lifting, say goodbye to the waiting game and hello to rapid transformations!

2. It Doesn't Irritate Or Dry Your Skin
Dryness and irritation that lingers for months? No thanks. Retinol can leave your skin feeling parched and irritated due to its aggressive cellular turnover. Instead of putting you through this, our Retinol Alternative System is enriched with skin-identical hydrators and anti-inflammatory heroes for natural-feeling hydration, soothing, and repair. We give your skin the care it deserves while accomplishing profound cellular transformations.

We prioritize you and your skin's well-being – period. With a meticulously developed Retinol Alternative System uses only research-backed, non-toxic ingredients. Our Heart to Heart Complex® technology is naturally derived from 100% natural DIM, which has been studied for decades (over 3,000 published studies!) and is much-beloved by dermatologists, holistic medicine practitioners, and even oncologists. Non-toxic ingredients meet cutting-edge research for skincare you know works, guilt-free.

4. It Doesn't Make Your Skin Purge Like Retinol Can
The last thing you want to deal with when you're fighting aging signs... is acne! Retinol is famous for its purging phase – "the retinol uglies." Our Retinol Alternative System is gentler and packed with other anti-inflammatory and anti-acne ingredients. So, you can say goodbye to the fear of breaking out. Plus, if you have breakouts, it'll help fight and reduce those, too!

5. It Works Today and In the Long Run
L'AMARUE's Retinol Alternative System isn't only for immediate results; it's a game-changer for long-term skin wellness, too. While delivering visible changes like reduced wrinkles and lines, improved texture, and a radiant glow in a short span, its real magic lies in its enduring impact. This innovative formulas work beneath the surface, promoting collagen factors, enhancing cellular turnover, and supporting your skin's anti-inflammatory processes. It's not just a quick fix for right now; it's welcoming a lifetime of skin vitality.

Heart to Heart Complex® Technology
Instead of retinol, we use our patent-pending Heart to Heart Complex®. Naturally-derived from cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, it's a major breakthrough in effective natural skincare.
It's so effective because it can "talk" to your skin. It does this with your skin's own natural collagen and healing processes, helping you reach your skin goals without irritation or toxic ingredients – up to 260% better than retinol can*. Don't underestimate it just because it's cute and pink.
HOW IT WORKS
When you eat, sleep, drink, stress, laugh, zen, or literally do anything at all, your body sends your skin signals. These can turn into inflammation, barrier breakdown, premature aging, and more.
Our body naturally gets to work to neutralize and rebalance these cellular and hormonal signals, and return your skin to its natural perfection. We bottled this perfect natural rebalancing process – so that it happens better and faster.
BETTER-THAN-RETINOL CARE
Retinol simply agitates the skin's cell regeneration process so that it regenerates faster and more aggressively than it normally would. Studies have shown that over time this can actually lead to weaker, thinner skin and a compromised skin barrier (which can lead to acne and eczema)! Also, retinol accumulates in your body and has been shown to cause liver damage and disrupt your hormones. Yikes!
Instead, our Heart to Heart Complex® gently promotes natural collagen production and regeneration without creating out-of-control cell turnover. It has been shown to promote cellular and hormonal harmony in the skin and in the whole body.
The results? Up to 260% better collagen production, faster healing, and calming even severe inflammation.*

The Daily Vitamin Serum
This serum is amazing....
"I was skeptical since I don't usually like serums (they always feel like they sit on my skin). It feels amazing going on, like my skin is just drinking it in. And my face looks amazing afterwards too. Even-toned and calm, and definitely younger than its 69 years..."
- Gina B.
The Face Cream
Absolutely love this stuff!
"This face cream is maybe the best facial product I have ever used. For whatever crazy reason it actually works exactly as stated on the website. My skin is now perfectly balanced, not oily or dry, firm, completely free of any blemish, itching, or irritation."
-Ashley R.
The Eye Cream
Best money spent on skin product, ever
"At first I liked how it felt and moisturized but I didn't notice a difference in appearance of fine lines until the 3rd day of use. Suddenly all the fine lines around my eyes disappeared and my outer corners and under eyes looked 15 years younger (I am 45 yrs). It is so effective and makes me feel so good I get anxiety when I think about running out."
