The form of vitamin A in this cream is the retinyl palmitate, (not at the top of the list) which, I believe, takes an extra conversion step to turn into retinoic acid. Apparently, this cream is being more touted as a moisturizer:
"What is it: This formula combines alguronic acid--a patented, naturally occurring compound--with a new source of nourishing oil--microalgae oil--and a plant-based collagen."
and...
"How do I use it: After cleansing, apply to the entire face, neck, and decollete, avoiding the eyes. For optimal results, use after your usual serum. Use only as directed."
I would think it does not take the place or have the same action as a retinol. Depending on what you think retinol does for your skin, I would use it, the retinol, at night, and the Genius in the a.m.

On 10/22/2014 Kitty Galore said: Thanks for the information. I guess I wondered if I could keep using my Retinol along with this product seeing that it too had some kind of Retinol. Didn't want to overdo it. Your suggestion of using my Retinol at nite is a good one, wonder if I could use my usual Retinol with this product though @ nite ?? Wish they had a customer care number.
At the Algenist.com site you can click on "customer service" and they have a phone # and email address. Here's the phone #: CALL: 1-877-650-1837
