Amazing

I was gifted by Farmacy Beauty! But,First let's talk about the oils. The first oil is Citrullus lanatus (watermelon) seed oil aka Kalahari Melon Oil which is a non-fragrant plant oil rich in fatty acids that hydrate, replenish, and soothe skin. Palmitic, linoleic, oleic, and stearic fatty acids are ...

*gifted by Farmacy Beauty*I have recently just gotten into retinols and must say that I wasn't entirely impressed with this one. It does have a very strange smell similar to glue like someone mentioned. I didn't really notice a difference after using it for a couple weeks and it's way to expensive f...

Comments about 1% Vitamin A Retinol Serum

This is gentle enough to use every other night on my sensitive, acne prone, combination, fair skin. The smell is a bit herbal/musky, and initially a little strong but dissipates quickly. Skin always looks better in the morning after use. Long term results TBD of course.

Comments about 1% Vitamin A Retinol Serum

I bought this product on a whim while I was purchasing some gifts for my sister, and I am SO glad I did. I have sensitive skin and I get zero irritation with this and that does not mean it's not working, it is! I literally felt results after using it twice. Also, the results last. It's not like some products that work for only a couple hours making your skin look/feel nice. It actually changes your skin texture for the better. Will be buying again and already bought another bottle as a gift!

Didn't overly dry out my skin. Or make it too sensitive. No funky smell either.

is the okay to use on skin as a preventative? i don't have deep wrinkles
Asked by Kris
Official Answer By Farmacy - Brand Engage
It's totally okay to use the retinol serum as a preventative — just patch-test first to gauge skin sensitivity, and gradually scale up use as your skin builds tolerance.Was this answer helpful to you
