Ideal for all those who're already acquainted with the wonders of retinol (this can trigger irritation and peeling if your skin is sensitive, or if you're new to the retinol realm), Drunk Elephants game-changing A-Passioni Retinol Cream is the perfect addition to your evening-time routine.
A powerhouse complex, this potent, silicone-free formulation of 1% retinol boasts comforting and nourishing ingredients (passionfruit, apricot, kale, winter cherry extracts, skin-firming peptides and essential fatty acids), to give lazy skin cells a boot up their bottoms! This product means business - promoting skin renewal and boosting collagen production while reducing depth of wrinkles and improving signs of damage - and with continual use, it rejuvenates cells to reveal aber vibrant, revitalised skin. Like the rest of the Drunk Elephant range, Tiffany advises that A-Passioni Retinol Cream can be applied and mixed with any other Drunk Elephant products to make your own signature 'smoothie' (and buffer the strength if your face needs to build up its tolerance). Suggested cocktails are to mix 'A-Passioni' with {C-Firma} in the daytime (always followed up with a broad-spectrum SPF to shield from sunshine!), or to combine with {Lala Retro Whipped Cream} at night if your face is reactive or you've never used a retinol before. Proceed with caution if your skin is sensitive - do a patch test to assess your cells' tolerance, then use sparingly to begin with - building up the frequency over the course of several weeks.

Great, but give it time.
I have used all the acne products there are since my teens. Now in my mid-30s my skin isn’t as bad but I still suffer from cystic acne (mainly hormonal), scars, and fine lines. Years ago after using Roacutanne, I was prescribed a treatment and my skin never looked better. However, after having children my skin was ruined again. I bought this in Aug2019 and have used it consistently every night. The first four months were horrific but knowing that retinol causes breakouts etc, I wasn’t too worried. My persistence paid off and now my skin is so clear, even my scars are fading. You must stick with it though, even when your face is looking it’s worst! One tube has lasted me from August to April with nightly use.

Uau
I was SOO afraid to buy this because of the negative reviews... I really wanted to start retinol since I just stopped breastfeeding and I'm 33 with acne scars and some fine lines but my skin is very sensitive and dehydrated because of the chemical peels I have done and the AHAs I use but I had no bad reaction at all, I'm using twice a week yet with caution but so far I love it and my skin looks more even when I wake up! Still too soon to tell but I'll update this in a few months!!

This is my first foray into retinol. I have sensitive skin prone to flake with new products so was worried but this is great. I started slowly once a week or so but now up to 3-4 times a week at night. My skin always looks better in the morning after using this - brighter and smoother

fiyatına değer worth the price
tek kelime ile çok güzeldi hayran kaldım zein obagi ile kıyaslama yaparsam bir tık kremsi yarısından daha ucuz olmasına rağmen çok başarılı ama dr dennis daha güzel bu retinolden In one word I was blown away. If I compare it with Zein Obagi, the cream is half the price yet it still performs really well, but Dr. Dennis is much better than this retinol

Be careful
As a Mum of a baby and toddler, I barely recognise myself these says and my face is really showing signs of sleep deprivation and general neglect. I listened to a podcast that concluded the only skin saving products worth investing in are vitamin A and a good spf. I have used many skin care brands (mid range to more expensive) and wanted to try a retinol cream. A Passioni has great reviews for the most part and so I took the plunge (I had been using another vitamin A cream for the month before to get my skin used to retinol). I put it on my face the night it arrived and (yes you’ve guessed it), the next morning I was bright red, flakey and in a fair amount of pain. The hardest thing was that any of my hydrating moisturisers that I tried to apply made my skin burn. I resorted to coconut oil which also stung, but less severely. Because my skin felt so dry all of my finer wrinkles appeared more defined, especially where my skin was thinner (laughter lines and around the eyes). Even my less than observant husband was shocked. Now... at this point I have to admit that I used more than a pea sized amount, but the instructions from the brand are not clear enough. This is an extremely strong cream and should be used only by experienced retinol users. If you are thinking of purchasing, I would get a sample and do a skin test first. I would also be really careful about which products to mix it with. After some research, I have used CeraVe face moisturiser to calm my skin. The hyaluronic acid apparently works well with retinol. Call me completely nuts, but once my skin has recovered, I am going to try it once more using only the pea sized amount, mixed with the CeraVe moisturiser. If I get better results, I will remove this review and write another! Please please do not mess with this product!!!! Caroline Hirons has a very accurate review of A Passioni. Look it up!

Listen to the instructions
I really like this. My previous retinol was the Ordinary's advanced retinoid (original one) and I do find this one way more effective, at a cost: you need to tread carefully and really build slowly, otherwise, you'll get irritated skin. I have had it for a month or so now and still only use it once every two days, mixed in with other creams. I do find that it has smoothed my forehead wrinkles and has evened out my overall complexion a lot. Another benefit is that you don't use a lot. Would recommend for non-retinol naive people.

Me gusta!!
Me gusta mucho este retinol, más que otro de gama alta P.....C...,pero llevo más de un mes de tratamiento nocturno y parece que se han frenado sus efectos en mi piel... seguiré utilizándolo a ver qué pasa.... I really like this retinol, more than another high-end, but I have more than a month of night treatment and it seems that its effects on my skin have slowed. I will continue to use it to see what happens.

Strong & Effective
Absorbs quickly, no fragrance (perfect for those with sensitive skin.) Can be very strong upon first use so don't underestimate this. Only a small amount (or: pomegranate bud) is enough. Works perfectly when used with the TLC drunk elephant chemical exfoliant. The only small observation I made is the colour of the cream. The yellow can transfer onto clothes. Be careful upon application.

Too strong for my skin
It makes my skin look and feel amazing. But I cannot get over the irritation it gives my skin. I tried increasing it gradually over time, but I cannot find a way to avoid the irritation. This product is definitely too strong for my skin.

Too strong for me
After adding C-firma and C-tango to my holy grails I picked up the courage and splurged on this retinol. As per instructions worked my way up from once every 2 weeks to once a week. Unfortunately my skin just cannot deal with it. I have combination skin with very sensitive cheeks, and they stay red for 1-2 days after using this. Tried it on its own, mixed with DE cream, mixed with oil. My skin is used to using the 2% retinol by TO on a daily basis. Have given DE a break and skin is back to normal. Disappointed as I was ready to love this.
