Decent product.

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I recently received the Sunday Riley A.I. Retinoid Serum and was looking.

Gentle & Effective

Submitted 15 days ago

By Karen

From MA

I have blemish-prone skin and was nervous about using a retinoid, but this one is surprisingly gentle. It absorbs quickly, doesn't feel heavy, and has helped smooth my skin and calm breakouts. I've noticed clearer-looking skin without major irritation. Definitely a great option if you want results without harsh side effects!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Lightweight, almost gel-cream in consistency

From Edmond, ok

Lightweight, almost gel-cream in consistency. It absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy or tacky film, which is great under moisturizer or makeup. Scent: Very subtle—clean, not perfumey. Didn't irritate my skin.

Extremely good

Submitted 2 months ago

By Aurora

From Miami

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] Extremely good retinoid to begin this journey! It didn't cause me purging, yes I know it can be normal, but this one is really good even though for sensitive skin! My skin after using it for two weeks every 2 days became shiny and comedones began to reduce. Didn't cause me any redness because it is very gentle with the skin

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Amazing

Submitted 2 months ago

By Emma

From Kansas

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] So let me start off by saying I tried this product for over a month consistently. For a retinol this is an excellent choice. However my skin in the winter tends to be VERY dry. I did notice some flaking on my face but again I would blame this on my own skin not the product itself. My overall skin barrier and skin itself does look way better. Blemishes are gone. I would give this product 5 stars if my skin wasn't so dry.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
