This is a good value product. A little goes a long way and it soaks in quickly to skin. Instructions are clear and easy to follow and I would buy again.

Does the trick

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I did notice a change in my skin for sure, and I love how there are instructions within the box for how/when to apply to your skin in line with your routine.  I found it to be quite drying initially, but you do need make sure you moisture along with it!

Great begginer retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've used this retinol for once a week for 1 month, still can't see any changes (cause it's a long way 'till it starts to work) but I do love the process! My skin is normal (but gets dry on winter) and because there is squalane in the ingredient list it gives that extra moisture and my skin is not getting more dryer or flakes. If you're still wondering if to buy it or no, I suggest, that YOU SHOULD GIVE IT A TRY AND YOU'LL LOVE IT! BUT REMEMBER: A little goes a long way, and don't rush with retinol. <3

really good

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I bought this product for me at first but I end it up to give in it to my mum she's been using it for a while and she hasn't felt any irritation which is a bonus for me. Although it is really early to see a difference for now I am satisfied that it is gentle to your skin.

Excellent problem solver

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I think this is one of the best low cost retinol products on the beauty market. Having simple yet very effective formula, this retinol really helped to solve serious acne problems. It was ideal for using retinol for the first time in the routine and showed its effectiveness in 6 weeks. The changes where really significant. Inkey is a great brand

Sensitive skin review

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have such sensitive skin & this product didn’t give me any negative reactions! I started by mixing it with my sensitive moisturiser and I’m gradually building up the use. Reduced the redness in my skin and leaves me with a fresh skin feeling. Love it!

Good starter retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I’ve tried lower concentration retinol in the past and found them useless. I have pretty resilient skin but I’m not confident enough to dive right into a really high % retinol just yet. I have acne prone skin.  This formula is really good to start with. It doesn’t feel greasy. I did get some breakouts the first few weeks of use but that can happen. I’m just getting past the break out faze now and my skin texture has definitely improved over the last month. It definitely helped my prescription Benzyl peroxide work faster in active acne.  Truthfully I don’t see any difference in the few wrinkles I have found my eyes but it’s early days still. Would definitely recommend.

Great product!

Great product to start using retinol. I have not experienced any problems and my skin feels great after 3 weeks of using it.

Notice the difference

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is great, I noticed the difference the morning after using it. My forehead wrinkles, and the pinched look between the eyebrows have gone. My cheeks feel more juicy and plump. First application felt a bit stingy, but I dont notice it any more after 3 weeks. I use it every other night, followed by a moisturising oil, currently using rosehip seed oil by the ordinary.
