Nice retinoid
I liked this retinoid, it didn't irritate my skin for the high dose of retinoid that's in it.

Brightened and Softened my Skin
I've only been using this for a few weeks, in conjunction a couple nights a week with Sunday Riley's Luna Nighttime Oil. I'm not sure how well it's performing regarding lessening of wrinkles around my eyes and mouth, but I have seen a notable difference in some of the age spots on my upper cheeks. They seem to be less vivid, so that's a big plus! My skin definitely feels smoother and softer overall. There were a few days where my skin went haywire and had some red bumps but I backed off from using this every other day to 3 times a week. Now, I'm back to every other night and I don't have any issues. While I know that there's no magic bullet to turn back the clock, my skin seems healthier and a little more glowing, so I plan to keep using it and see how it looks a couple months from now.

Makes a Difference
When I apply this, I can feel it working. There is some tingling and a little pinkish red to my skin but it diminishes and leaves my skin smooth and fresh. As with any retinol, you have to use it consistently for it to work. I use this every night.

Works great
Have used about half the bottle. Seen improvement in evenness of skin. Hasn’t been long enough to see difference in fine lines. It feels luxurious going on. Pricey but worth it.

Favorite Non-Prescription Retinoid
I use this in conjunction with a prescription retinoid (switch off days). The texture is great, it is not irritating, and the results are excellent.

Love this product!
I can't live without this product! I am in my early 40's and this has helped with smoothing my skin and no more adult acne!

Excellent product
Soaks in quickly; not too harsh for my sensitive skin; neutral scent; 5 stars!

Great serum
This is a great serum. I use it as a preventive measure so I don't know the effect it has on existing wrinkles, but my skin looks great.

Gentle, effective retinoid
I am a new Sunday Riley customer. I use this nightly with Sunday Riley Luna night retinol oil every other night. Skin discoloration has improved. Not drying at all, but I have somewhat oily skin. Seems to smooth some fine lines and helps my pores to stay clear. Works great for me. I also have very high retinol tolerance, so not sure for a beginner. This will be a fixture to my night routine until my skin changes again (perimenopausal). Will repurchase, but not from Dermstore.
