New to the line up

I recently added the retinol complex to my skincare lineup and am loving it so far. I did follow the recommendations and have only been using a pea-size amount a few times a week. My skin is very sensitive and have had no issues.

First time Retinol user

I have no other Retinol product to compare it to because this is the first one I've ever tried. Too soon to see a finishesd result. So far so good on this product doing what it claims. The directions say use twice a week when starting and that's what you should exactly do, trust me, I learned the hard way. But the flaking of skin is minimal and can be dealt with easily with a mild facial scrub and a good moisturizer.

Love the texture

I’ve been using another brand for some time but I was pleasantly surprised at the creamy texture of this one vs. an oily one from my other OTC product. I’ve only been using it for a week or so but I think this preference will change my loyalty especially as I love my other drmtlgy products.

Good basic retinol

Gentle yet effective. I do sometimes have to back down to using every other night or 3x week due to my skin just being super highly sensitive.
