Sophia, who attended the Olympic Games in Paris, ensured her share of fun and self-care by visiting French beauty shops.
She shared a photo of her bag filled to the brim with A313 Vitamin A Pommade, available in French pharmacies.
The pomade contains the key ingredient retinol, which is known in the skin care industry for its anti-aging properties.
According to Harvard Healththe topical form of vitamin A helps “reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing collagen production.”
“They also stimulate the production of new blood vessels in the skin, which improves skin color,” the website says.
“Other benefits include fading age spots and softening rough patches on the skin.
“However, it takes three to six months of regular use before improvements in wrinkles are visible. The best results are achieved after six to twelve months.”
