Vitamin A is the “natural” form of retinol. The human body produces it but sometimes it needs a little boost. One of the most popular over-the-counter products for that boost is known as TX Systems Afirm, or just “Afirm” for short. Afirm’s retinol skin care creams pack a powerful retinol punch, delivering a potent vitamin A (retinol) cocktail that promises to reduce fine lines and the effects of sun damage, while firming, smoothing, toning and improving the look and feel of the patient’s face.

For men and women with aging and damaged skin, retinol creams are a very popular choice, with their ability to rewind the chronological clock. And they’re popular for good reason.
