Caused combo skin to break out after 1 use

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

I look forward to trying this product a few more times, but am pretty sure it caused me to break out last night. I was using another brand Retinol Renewal product for the past week with no problems. Will update this review after I have tried it a little longer. This might work fine for other types of skin.

Good Product

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I just recently started using this product and it did leave my face a little dry and irritated, but I am new to using retinol products. I am hoping this will subside soon.

Great starter retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I purchased this product after using prescription strength retinols over the years for acne. Acne is no longer a problem but I still want the anti-aging benefits of a retinol. The 0.5 strength is good to start with. I started using it twice a week and continue to use every other night. It doesn't dry out my skin or leave it irritated.

I started with the .5 to break my skin into the 1.0. I noticed results within a week and wanted more! I got outstanding results with the .5.

Nice addition

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

So I just recently (within the last 6 months) really started investing in my skin care. This retinol and some vitamin c drops were the biggest changes, as well as being very consistent with my routine. I am seeing overall brighter, healthier looking skin, as well as reduced smile lines. I am still working through the first bottle at .25. It seems to last forever! I plan to go up to .5 next...one warning, make sure you use sunscreen! I absentmindedly wipes my hands on my neck after applying the retinol at night and forgot to cover my neck the next day. I paid for it with a legit burn that really hurt and took over a week to heal! Otherwise I recommend this product!

Retinol Review

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

As someone who has never used retinol before, this product has been great as an introductory. My skin has not been irritated using it almost every other night. I apply a face oil and moisturizer after the retinol in the evening.

Effective retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I started using the 0.25 strength 9 months ago. Used it three times per week and advanced slowly to daily usage. I am using 0.5 strength now. In the beginning, there was some irritation and redness of skin, which is common with retinoid usage. Over time, my skin got acclimated to daily usage. Skin looks smoother, fine lines and pores have improved. My skin feels less oily. It has other natural extracts that act as antioxidants. Absorbs well. Good product overall.

Age defense good

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product really works. It is something I started using once a week because of the retinol and then progressed to twice a week and now every other day. My skin tone looks much smoother and I think a little firmer. I am in my sixties and wish I would have started using this earlier in my life. I highly recommend.

First time user and I like it

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

First time using a Retinol. I tried the .25 and it wasn't strong enough. This one I can feel the softness and my skin is glowing. It doesn't irritate my skin or dry it out either, for someone with sensitive skin I'm happy. I will definitely keep using this.
