The French pharmacy vitamin A ointment for dry, rough and irritated skin

A313 Vitamin A Pommade is a vitamin A ointment for dry, rough or irritated skin, and one of the best-known French pharmacy classics. Each 100g contains 200,000 IU of synthetic vitamin A in an oily form, in a short, fragrance-free base of macrogols and polysorbate 80 that melts on contact with the skin. Registered as a medicine in France for irritated skin, it helps the skin surface recover and feel softer and smoother. Many people also use it as a budget vitamin A night care, in a thin layer a few nights a week.

The texture

A thick, slightly sticky ointment that melts on contact with the skin. It stays on the surface for a while before settling, so it is best used at night. A very small amount is enough: too much feels greasy and raises the chance of irritation.

Who it suits

  • Dry, rough or irritated patches that need a rich, simple ointment
  • People who want to try vitamin A at night on a small budget
  • Normal to dry skin that tolerates rich textures
  • Routines without other retinoids or strong acids on the same night

Worth knowing before you buy: like any vitamin A product, A313 can cause redness, tingling or flaking at first, so start two or three nights a week and wear SPF during the day. It is not meant for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding, nor for long use on large or damaged areas. Stop if irritation worsens or does not settle.

How long one tube lasts

Used as a thin night layer on the face, about a pea-sized amount, a 50g tube lasts around four to five months of regular use.
