You already juggle showings, client calls, and family time but did you know that chronic stress can cause premature signs of aging on your skin? In a study from April 2024, topical 0.1% retinol significantly improved crow’s feet, facial wrinkles, uneven skin tone amongst other skin issues. Dermatologists recommend retinol as a first-line anti-aging treatment (American Academy of Dermatology).
