    What does vitamin A palmitate do?

    1. Retinyl palmitate is easily absorbed by the skin and then converted into retinol. This increases the production of collagen.
    2. Experts have evaluated it and believe that retinyl palmitate is a safe cosmetic ingredient.
      In contrast, it is less irritating than retinol and is not prone to allergies. The specific working mechanism is to first convert it into retinol, then into retinal, and then to retinoic acid.
    3. It can promote the stability of cell membranes and is beneficial to human growth and development.
    4. This ingredient helps the formation of vision.
    5. Moreover, as an antioxidant, it can bind to free radicals that cause gene mutations.
      Retinyl palmitate also helps cells reproduce and distinguish necrotic cells.
