As opposed to simply moisturizing skin, "A retinol body lotion is ideal for anyone with uneven skin tone and texture or anyone who is looking to tone up the firmness of their skin across the body," says Hartman.
According to the derm, "nearly all skin types" can use a retinol body lotion. "If you’ve ever had irritation from a retinol product on the face, start on a small section of the body before applying all over," explains the derm, adding that "Skin on the body is typically less sensitive on the face, so you may be able to use a retinol body product."
Those who are pregnant or nursing should not use products containing retinol, however you may be able to use retinol alternative ingredients. Always consult with your doctor before starting a new regimen.
