The search is over, a real French pharmacy retinol is now available in the US, as you know I have been disappointed by the so called "French retinol" available in the US, it does not contain retinol but retinyl palmitate.

Coule is a replacement of the original Avibon French retinol cream featured in 'The Goop' blog by Gwyneth Paltrow as France's skincare secret to flawless skin.

Contains 833,333 I.U. of pure vitamin A

Don't get fooled by the US version of A 313 that only contains retinyl palmitate,

Retinyl palmitate has a poor ability to help with lines and wrinkles.

Coule contains real retinol, it is encapsulated aka in a little bubble called a liposome to keep it stable and in an aluminum tube for optimal freshness.

Why is Coule retinol pomade better for your skin:

It's important to remember that all vitamin A derivatives must convert to retinoic acid to be effective and that the more conversion steps the less effective it is.

Vitamin A chemical name is retinol, the alcohol form of vitamin A as it occurs in nature.

In the skin retinol is first oxidized into retinal then retinoic acid.

Because retinol is very unstable, esters such as retinyl palmitate are used but you add an extra step into the transformation and they are less effective.

The original French retinol cream Avibon that was later replaced by A313 contained 1 million international units of Vitamin A and was formulated with lanolin, to counteract the drying effects of Retinol.

The new formula contains encapsulated retinol aka in a liposome form for better stability combines with Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR) the next-generation of retinoid ester.

The base is a pharmaceutical petrolatum and Dimethyl Isosorbideto enhance the delivery/penetration of vitamin A (retinol)

Benefits of retinol:

Retinol triggers epidermis turn over: dead cells, pigmented cells, milia are exfoliated as a result your skin is baby soft and lighter.
Retinoids have an anti comedogenic effects:

they regulate the process of shedding within sebaceous pores by pushing up and out the cells that clog your pores
and decrease activity of enzymes participating in lipogenesis (less sebum in pores)

Topically applied retinoids also influence the function of melanocytes, providing regular arrangement of melanin in the epidermis therefore reducing discoloration of the skin
Retinol stimulates fibroblasts to synthesize collagen fibers (stimulates the activity of fibroblasts and increases their number), improves skin elasticity (removes degenerated elastin fibers)
Triggers skin renewal without the irritations and dryness experienced with the acid form of Vitamin A

How to use:

Make sure you face is totally dry as Vitamin A will react with water and cause irritation.
If your skin is not sensitive use the 123 rule:
Once per week for the first week
Twice per week for the next two weeks
Three times per week for the next three weeks
Every other night (if tolerated) for the next few months
Nightly (if tolerated)
During the 123 period use Ialuset on alternative days.
If your skin is sensitive apply cream, let it act for 15 min then wash it off. Apply Ialuset.
Do not apply too close to the eyes as the cream will naturally migrate.
Try not to mix it with moisturizer or put any moisturizer on top.
This should not happen if you follow the 123 rule but if skin is very very dry apply Ialuset first then retinol cream.
Do not use during the day as Vitamin A is sun-sensitive.
It is normal to feel a tingly sensation for 15 minutes after applying the cream.

THE BEST
My adult skin has never been softer and brighter than when I use . I love it so much though at first I was a little put off by the ointment-like texture. But after a few years of use, I am totally convinced that it is really the ideal texture for this type of product. Helps to seal in the moisture because it might otherwise be very drying. I use it every night, and I really think this the piece of my skin care routine that is truly most effective. I try to always have an extra tube ready to go! Highly highly highly recommend this.
