Need Help Understanding Retinol....Confused :(

Evening Ladies!

There are so many Wonderful Ladies here with 'expertise' when it comes to beauty-related subjects, I was truly hoping for some Info and Help!!

I purchased a kit from Dr. Denese just a few weeks back (I think it was a TSV??{#emotions_dlg.confused1}); it came with eye cream, face cream (hydroshield with Aqua cell technology?) and her Face Serum. The Face Serum feels truly wonderful, (it does not 'seem' to break me out--I have Truly Hyper!! Sensitive skin!! Ugh!!) and one of the ingredients is 'Retinol'.

Last week I ordered a kit from Peter Thomas Roth A224611 which included Un-Wrinkle Peel Pads.

Upon receiving PTR kit I proceeded to READ Everything and lo-and-behold for the Un-Wrinkle Peel Pads it says "Do not use if currently using Retin-A or Renova".

Okay, this is Probably a very Silly!! question, but are Retinol and Retin-A the same thing???{#emotions_dlg.confused1}

If not, can someone tell me the Difference??

Can I use Dr. Densese's Serum with Peter Thomas Roth Peeling Pads??

Thank you in Advance Ladies!!
