Love it
The texture is silky and lightweight, and it absorbs quickly into my skin without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling. I have pretty sensitive skin that can easily get red or irritated with stronger retinoids, but this serum feels very gentle so far — no stinging or dryness at all. It layers well u...

Forward to trying it. especially since it's designed for blemish-prone skin. The texture is nice – it's lightweight and absorbs quickly without feeling greasy. However...

Must try not over drying
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I I have a sensitive skin and this did not turn my face red like other retinol products. I also don't wake up with my skin feeling super tight. It feels like the pores are tightened, and it also helped reduce a blemish. There isn't a strong smell to it which I appreciate since I'm wearing it all night. We'll definitely purchase.

Love
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This product is honestly amazing. The serum is very light and does not leave a sticky residue on your face. The smell is a bit interesting but is not overpowering. Made my skin feel and look amazing. I tend to have very dry skin and this product works amazing with my skin. I will definitely be repurchasing in the future.
Smooth and clean
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This seems to be the last product you will ever need. The serum is light and smooth and soaks into your skin quickly. There is no sticky feeling immediately after applying. The smell is pretty light- it's there but not overpowering.

Lovely packaging
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] My skin is quite sensitive and this product didn't quite agree with it. However, I did notice that my acne cleared up a bit! So that was nice! I would recommend to those with skin that isn't sensitive.
Love it
[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The serum has a light texture that absorbs quickly, leaving no stickiness or dryness. After a couple of weeks, I noticed that my face became more even, breakouts healed faster, my pores appeared clearer, and my skin looked fresher and more radiant in the morning. I particularly appreciated that despite the retinoid in the formula, there was no significant irritation, and the convenient pump packaging made it even more comfortable to use. This is an excellent product for those who want a gentle yet effective retinoid for their acne-prone skin.
