Retinoic acid is synthesized from retinol via two enzymatic reactions, the first of which is a reversible oxidation of retinol to retinal, which is followed by a second and irreversible oxidation reaction to retinoic acid.

Retinoic Acid includes the following functions:
•Stimulates the process of epidermal cell proliferation;
•Accelerates the elimination of sebum remaining in ducts, therefore reducing inflammation in sebaceous glands; 
•Loosens connections among cells in stratum corneum and inhibits keratosis.
