I haven’t seen a significant difference in my skin in the past 2 weeks as retinol/retinal products can take time to produce results so I’ll make sure to stay consistent this serum. 


For beginners, they suggest using this every other day or evening use for 1-2 weeks before using it everyday for daily morning and evening use. My skin has been introduced to retinol and retinal in the past so I decided to try this serum out every night.  Because of it’s perfect formula, I have not purged and my skin has not become irritated whatsoever!

This is probably the most affordable retinol/retinal product I have trialed - it’s a huge bottle! This serum is unscented and lightweight.  It absorbs quickly into the skin and doesn’t dry greasy or tacky.  Two pumps is enough for my whole face.   


Removes heavy make-up but I do find that I have to spend some additional time rubbing off eye make-up.

The scent reminds me of a light cherry fragrance reminiscent of cherry flavour medicine, like Robitussin. LOL. It’s not strong enough to be off-putting but I’d rather they change or eliminate the fragrance

I found this cream to have a bit of a tacky finish so I ended up using it on my neck which I find actually helped with my fine lines. 

An unscented, thick cream with a very low percentage of Retinol, likely appropriate for those who are new to Retinol.  I didn’t experience any irritations or purging using this product. A little goes a long way with this moisturizer.  It’s better used in the colder, dryer months due to its thick and very moisturizing effects. 

Not as moisturizing as the repair cream version. 

A lighter weight version of the repair cream version. Provides the right amount of hydration in the warmer months. 

Slightly bit too heavy for the summer months. 

Such a thick and moisturizing body cream that’s great for the winter! It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a tacky finish.
