Brilliant low cost retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I received this in a sub box and was hesitant after trying a similar low cost brand that did absolutely nothing. I was very impressed with this serum, gentle and left my skin feeling beautiful the morning after. So much so that I have repurchased and will continue to do do! I find it very similar to the high end retinol serum A+

Good priced retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

It’s my first time using retinol so I’ve started using it every third evening and will build up from there. Also I mix it with my moisturiser as that seems to make it less irritating on my skin.

Started using 7 months ago and within the first week I noticed my fine lines disappeared and pores shrink I’ve used many retinol products but this is by far my favourite

Very strong

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

Doesn’t have a very nice smell at all. Very strong it’s broken my skin barrier and still haven’t been able to recover it months after. That was by using just once a week as well!
