This was so gentle for a retinal and Really helped to fade acne scars over the days I tested it for - it has stayed in my routine though and I also understand that it takes longer than 7 days to get lasting results (the brand requested a 7 day trial and a before and after so that's what I did). No dryness or irritation, in fact my skin was feeling soft and supplements as opposed to dry and irritated. Will continue using this as my retinol and have created a routine for my retinol night around this product.

Honestly one of the best spot treatments I’ve ever used. Comes out of the tube clear but transparent on the skin. Helps reduce swelling and redness of under the surface breakouts with 3% of this anti-inflammatory ingredient called ibuprofen piconol or IPPN. I actually hadn’t heard of this ingredient until using this product but whatever is in it; it’s working really well. It’s also suspended in plenty of fatty alcohols so it’s non-drying unlike traditional spot treatments that utilize salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. It’s also really affordable.

Absolutely love the results I got from this product. I used on any acne scars for a few nights in a row and they would start to fade nicely. I found the formula nice and soothing, no irritation and a little product goes a long way.

This is the perfect gel cream consistency for combination acne prone skin. Since I began using this cream 3 weeks ago my skin has unequivocally changed for the better. I also love that is has Resveritrol as one of it's hero ingredients, an ingredient which essentially mimics the effects of retinol without the irritation- perfect for sensitive and healing skin. I think I have found a cream that will purchase over and over again. My skin texture has improved and so has the frequency and severity of my breakouts. Absolutely adore this cream!

This product is so soothing on irritated or inflamed skin. I love to use this when I'm having an exceptionally bad hormonal breakout that needs soothing. It takes the redness down almost immediately and creates a protective seal over the area whilst also soaking beautifully into the skin. If my skin is dry and irritated through winter I always reach for this and it's one of the serums I reccomend to every one with sensitive skin. I also want to mention the stunning glow this products gives to the skin, it just makes skin look healthy! I just ran out and I scraped every drop I could out of the bottle! Will absolutely be repurchasing this.
