Don’t be scared
Was frightened to use this however good instructions provided. Can hurt the skin however I think this was due to me not following the correct process. Really good value for money

Good results!
Stepped up to this after using Cerave’s retinol serum. Funny smell at first but have gotten used to it and had no issues with sensitivity or irritation, using it twice weekly even after using it near my eyes. Noticed it says to keep in fridge after opening- whoops! But doesn’t seem to have harmed it keeping it in my bathroom. Good results so far with my skin texture feeling a bit smoother and more even. Very oily but a good thing when using overnight.

Great value for money
This takes a little while to sink into my skin so I tend to pop it on while watching the TV in the evening and leave it 20 minutes before moisturising. It's a great little retinol product though and fab value for money

Good price
I was recommended this as a starter retinol. A pretty gentle start. Didn’t irritate my skin but I definitely saw an improvement in texture.
