Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion

product review positives
🏷️label claims: This serum with a creamy texture is great for those looking for solutions for textural irregularities / signs of aging without the side effects associated with retinol 💦 Texture: thick, goopy, creamy texture; yellowish in color. 🤔 My thoughts: Retinoid said to be less irritating than retinol, so i choose this as my first retinol product. Its very creamy liquid glides very well on my skin, sinks in within seconds. No irritation i felt. No peeling or dry patches even in winter when my skin is dry. I have been using this one for almost 3 months. And still i don't know how i feel about it. Its hydrating feels great on my skin. My skin looks better on the next day. But no significant improvement on my skin texture. I don’t have any huge signs of aging but some small lines on my forhead and my smile line. didn’t saw any improvement on these also. So i think its a good start to make your skin used to with retinol but will not repurchase it.
product review negatives
👎 And this one has PAO of only 3 months. i can't even half finished half of the bottle in this time. waste of product 😔
