  • Give it a go!
Style: Body Retinol
I have purchased this lotion 3 times already. I didn’t really do a before and after, however, I can say that it does leave my skin very soft and feeling hydrated but not too oily either. I use it even on my neck (which is very thin and sensitive) sometimes and I haven’t had and irritation or pimples. It is a bit pricey but I think it is definitely worth it because it’s skincare and you definitely don’t want to go cheap on that. It has a very nice soft scent to it, which I barely even notice honestly. It will not fix crepey skin or stretch marks. You’re better off using pure trentonin (retinol). I recommend giving it a go if you’re undecided. It also contains very clean ingredients, which may be of importance to some. ... show more

  • Heaven in a bottle!!
Style: Hand Retinol
Looooooove. Not greasy or sticky, not much of a fragrance, feels like heaven. IMO, worth the high price tag!

Too soon to tell if it’s working but the cream is nice and easy to apply . Seems to moisturize well just hoping it works for the crepey upper arms

  • PILLS HORRIBLY! (And 60+ Ingredients?!?)
Style: Hand Retinol
I’ve had this hand retinol “serum” formulation for a couple of months now. I’ve applied it sparingly, liberally, on completely dry hands, and on freshly washed hands. I’ve applied it to warm hands and cold hands. I’ve used it on its own in the evening, before bed, and I’ve applied it during the day, under sunscreen. I’ve tried to apply it as quickly as possible, and I’ve taken time to more thoroughly work it into my skin as effectively as possible. No matter what measures I’ve undertaken or how I’ve applied it, it pills and flakes all over the place. For years I’ve been a huge fan of Necessaire’s products. The original hand cream is still my all-time favorite for helping me really nourish and moisturize my hands, which have become drier with age and use. This new retinol “serum”, however, is a huge disappointing failure. I don’t understand why they’re calling it a serum because the texture is very much a white, whipped, creamy substance, like their hand cream, but that’s where the similarities end. The description states that it’s “Dermatologist-Tested”. It can’t have been tested under everyday, average use. Perhaps it’s okay as a spot treatment for someone who doesn’t need an application for their entire hands, but even with the slightest friction during a typical hand application, it ends up in messy, tiny pills/flakes all over your lap or on the floor instead of being absorbed into your skin. I noted in the title that there are over 60 ingredients in this 2.2 oz. tube that sells for $35.00. Retinol, one of THE weakest retinoids, is ingredient #12 on the full list. The #10 ingredient, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, is not allowed to be included in cosmetics that remain on the skin if it makes up more than 3% of the entire formula. That should tell you that, at its really low 0.25% strength, there is very little retinol (which is definitely not Tretinoin) in the tube. And there are many OTC products that contain retinol at levels nearly four times that strong, or 1.0%. I’ll try to use it as a spot treatment on some pigmented areas in an effort to get some value from it, but please, please don’t waste your money on this product if you want a weaker retinoid (retinol) that will truly be absorbed into your skin, as a real serum should. ... show more

  • Can see mini results with first 7 days. Improvement with time over 30 days.
Style: Body Retinol
Why did you pick this product vs others?: ingredients for helping mature skin reduce the creepiness and wrinkles.

  • Just ok lotion
Style: Body Retinol
I like the lotion don’t get me wrong but I did not see any drastic changes by using it. It’s rather pricey to not see any changes. Love the thickness. The smell is ok it goes away quickly. I love that I can use this right after shaving and my skin doesn’t burn or react to it. That almost makes the purchase worth it as it’s hard for me to find lotions that don’t burn or agitate my skin after I shave. ... show more
