Retinol
I really like this product. Helps with acne breakouts if I’m not using regularly, and if I am, keeps breakouts at bay. Haven’t noticed much of an effect on hyperpigmentation but also could use more regularly as mentioned above. Does create nice glowy effect to skin morning after use.
Report this reviewReally great!
This is great for anyone who has been doing Retinol for a while. If you're a beginner, I would do a different product or use this in low dosages or on top of your moisturizer
Report this reviewJust OK
I didn't notice any real improvement in my skin, but on the positive side, it didn't cause dryness and didn't irritate my skin.
Report this reviewWorks well
I really like this product, and may buy it again in the future. It’s not my hg, but I did see results.
Report this reviewTry with the matching sleep oil!
I haven’t used this on its own; I’ve only used this with Sunday Riley’s Luna Sleeping Night Oil. That said, I love how glowy and even-toned my skin looks in the morning after using the two products. Highly recommend if you’re looking to try a new retinol/retinoid duo.
Report this reviewFavorite Retinol
This was my second time to buy this, first time from Dermstore, but I will never use another retinol. Has faded dark spots, smoothed skin, and cleared up extra oils. I use this twice per week!
Report this reviewI love this serum!
It really works and it’s quite powerful. Makes my skin look tighter. I skip days sometimes in order to lessen the soreness I sometimes feel when using an effective retinoid product.
Report this reviewLove!
I decided to move to over the counter retinoid after my skin could not tolerate the prescription strength from my dermatologist. I love this product, as well as the price! I have seen a marked improvement in my fine lines and wrinkles, as well as the occasional breakouts I am still getting at the advanced age of 63! I get so many compliments on my skin, and my routine is simple: cleanse, tone, vitamin C and retinol. I use only every other night as I still get some dryness and flakiness. I love Sunday Riley High Dose Retinoid, it is a permanent part of my skin care routine.
Report this reviewSunday Riley Retinoid Serum
OMG can't say enough good things about this product. It helps with my breakouts and the texture of my skin! I have to skip a day of usage in between usages with my skin type, but this is a miracle in a jar!!
Report this reviewI must have for your nightly routine
I am totally in love with this product. I use this every other night and I’ve seen a drastic change in my skin and its texture and it’s only been three weeks. My skin tends to be a little sensitive so that’s why I use it only every other night. But it’s one of the best products I use on my skin at night and have seen a difference. Not overly pricey but worth the money.
