I've been using this for about 6 weeks now. I started slowly with only once or twice a week for the first few, and then every other day since, and it has been lovely to use. I didn't experience any irritation, and I have extremely sensitive skin. I am starting young (mid-twenties) to hopefully avoid any signs of aging, and I'm hoping it will work. I have noticed that some minor lines under my eyes have decreased in size, which is nice. In addition, it seems to have really helped with my acne, which is great.

This solution is a nice intro to retinol. The squalane base means that your skin stays hydrated while the retinol works. I usually put it on at night with a night cream over top once the solution has soaked in a bit.

Due to the warnings I was concerned about how my skin would react especially since I have sensitive skin. No issues and I use it almost every night. Oily consistency which I'm fine with but have heard some don't love.

From what I understand, this is a pretty strong retinol treatment. Yet itâÂÂs gentle , glides on smoothly and no irritation. Start with 2x a week at first, then work your way up. Will definitely repurchase.

IâÂÂve only been using this for a couple weeks now about 2-3 times a week and IâÂÂve already noticed improvement on my texture and fine lines. I canâÂÂt wait to use it as my skin always feels great after. I think this is the perfect combination of retinol. IâÂÂve used just the squalane from this brand before so I knew it would be super hydrating. I also use the rosehip seed oil daily.

I started using this Retinol a month ago. I use it just once a week as my skin is very sensitve and so far I'm very pleased. It's a great moisturizer. I'll be trying it more often now.
