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.

Comments about 1% Vitamin A Retinol Serum
Great product. Experienced no irritation or dryness and I've been using it for about 6 months, 3-4 times a week at night. Definitely helps with diminishing fine lines and wrinkles. Use this plus the Honey Halo moisturizer and you will feel and see a difference in your skin!

Comments about 1% Vitamin A Retinol Serum
Not the strongest retinol I've used yet it works really well. Perfect mix of ingredients and actually feels hydrating as well. I noticed results after about 2 weeks using 3-4 times per week. Best overall retinol as I keep trying others yet continually come back to this one. Doesn't irritate sensitive skin either.
The best retinol

Comments about 1% Vitamin A Retinol Serum
This is the best retinol I've tried as someone with sensitive combination skin! It's not too harsh or drying and it's so effective! I've been using this for about a year and have noticed a significant decrease in wrinkles and improvement in texture. Even my esthetician noticed my skin get better over the last year. Please never discontinue this!!
Love it!
