Details & care
What it is: A retinol serum specifically designed for sensitive skin that visibly improves the look of lines and wrinkles while providing 24-hour hydration.
What it does: This 0.3% retinol serum absorbs deep into the skin’s surface layers, aiding skin cell turnover so it looks smoother, firmer and more youthful. The formula features a blend of retinol and retinyl propionate at an optimized dosage to maximize results without the irritation of traditional retinol. It hydrates for 24 hours to strengthen skin’s surface barrier with peptides.
Key ingredients:
- 0.3% Retinol Complex: a gentle blend of retinol and retinyl propionate for sensitive skin
- Peptides: helps smooth skin and minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
How to use: In the evening, apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin and follow with a moisturizer. Limit initial usage to 3x per week, gradually increasing frequency to every night as tolerated.

Absolutely love the effectiveness
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is one of the best retinols I’ve tried in a while. It is a cream formula that smiths in easily and absorbs quickly. I love the fact that it has a peptide serum in it because I usually layer retinol with a second serum. Lately that has been a peptide one. I didn’t need that with this product. It was great to have one fewer product at bedtime. I have used the bottle for nearly 30 days straight and am now starting to see a real reduction in fine lines i will be purchasing a new bottle before this runs out

Not as effective as I expected.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tested this out for at least 3 weeks. The texture was very nice smoothing it on to my skin. I really didn’t notice much of a scent. My skin didn’t have any reaction to it, but I didn’t notice a difference in the texture of my skin or wrinkles. It was hydrating for a short period, but didn’t last all day. Simple packaging.

In love!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im pretty in love with this ultra repair retinol serum. First off, it has no smell at all, which i love. The bottle is glass, and the pump works really well. All you need is 2 pumps as a little goes a long way. I have sensitive, oily, acne prone skin, and this stuff makes my face feel so nice and smooth and doesn't leave any greasy residue. It soaks right in! Im obsessed! I definitely recommend this product.

A MUST BUY!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] FAB is always 10/10 on my skin! Applies evenly, comes in convenient packaging, and helps the redness diminish in my skin. I’ve noticed my skin is less dry and more clear too. Ready for makeup free days this summer!

Great product for retinol newbies with sensitive s
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] You get alot of product for the price. The texture of the cream is thin, but not liquid, it’s a light cream that almost feels powdery on my fingertips when it dries. No weird smell or added fragrance which is great. Seems to be working alright for me after a few weeks of use, no irritation on my end. It doesn’t pill under my moisturizers which is great!
I recommend this product, I love that it is formulated for sensitive skin too, as retinols and retinoids can be drying or irritating for many skin types, including my dry skin.
The bottle design is study and pretty. the cap helps keep the tip of the pump sanitary too (no one likes packaging you have to dig your fingers or a spoon into).
This is a good product if you are starting off on retinols for the first time, because you’d want to start with a lower strength of it. This is great for those who are afraid of retinols or want to get into them, but have sensitive skin.

This definitely helps hydrate my face!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The texture is nice and creamy, and I love how it works on fine lines and add extra hydration to the skin, making it feel nice and soft. The application is very easy to use too, and it doesn’t bother my sensitive skin. I highly recommend this product.
