Today on Spotlight, Kelly is going in deep into the confusing word of retinoids. 

Retinyl, retinol, retinal, retinoic acid - we know you've heard a lot about the retinoid family (we even did a full episode about it.) But how do you know where to start when it comes to picking the right potency and product for you?

Kelly's dishing out some of her top recs from each retinoid category and sharing her tips on what brands and formulations will work best for every skin type. So kick back, this is retinoids for dummies.
