Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry face and neck in the evening. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes. Start with a weekly application and gradually increase to twice a week, a few days apart, as tolerated by your skin. Apply a moisturizer afterwards. Do not use with other retinoid products.

Almost perfect Retinal!
This retinal formulation is very light and easy to spread and sink into the skin. It's comfortable to wear and I did not experience any skin irritation. So glad that the it is offered at such a high percentage of retinal that is rare to find from other brands at such an affordable price. What would ...

Disappointing
I received this product as a gift from a friend. Apon first look, I was baffled how little product you get for the price. I've used OTC retinaldehyde for years, so I think I will stick with it: I get the same amount of care and three times the product for the price. The Ordinary is not what it used ...

I appreciate Influenster sending me this complimentary product to review in exchange for my honest opinion. For starters, a little goes a long way and it's nice to have a non scented product, especially for sensitive skin. Price also seems reasonable, once I did some product research. Not blow away, but not bad.

Effective smooths skin after prescribed use. My skin is soft, smooth and glowing just after several weeks of usage (literally used once a week for 2 weeks and then twice in one week). A little goes a long way. Perfect for low maintenance skincare for aging skin. (I'm in my mid-late 40s). Please remember to not use on sensitive areas.

I really like this product. I swapped from an expensive retinal product to this and they are similar in results... but the yellow tone is very strong and gets left in my hair line and eyebrows. Its also transfered to my white pillow case too. Good product but better to use less liberally.
Great product, will keep using

I've used this consistently for weeks now on my very sensitive, dry/combo skin - it's the best I've tolerated any form of retinol/retinal so far! It does tingle a bit when I put it on & my skin is a bit more sensitive on nights when I use it/the day after, BUT when I wake up in the morning after putting it on, my skin looks juicy, plump & fresh. Much more so than when I just use the other products in my routine!
Works for me

I enjoyed first off that there was not a harsh chemical smell as I have found on several other products. This goes on smooth and doesn't have a tacky feel to it. I did notice a slight difference in the fine lines and would just need to use this more to see a bigger difference. I received this produce at no cost in exchange for my honest review.
