Good so far

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've used this for a couple of weeks so it's too early to see results, but so far so good. You do need to build up slowly though, I did find my skin was more sensitive after the first use.

Good value for money

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

One of the few 0.2% retinal products on the market and for such an affordable price! It works as expected and doesn't irritate my skin. Recommended!

Helped with skin texture

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I purchased more to help with my texture and it’s been great, don’t use often due to sensitivity but done a great job

Stains clothing and sheets

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

Unfortunately I cannot continue using this, this has such a strong yellow color that my clothes and sheets have a yellow tinge to them after one night of using this, even after moisturizing after application. I bought this for my neck and chest and absolutely cannot use it anymore as I’ll need to wash my sheets everyday if I do. It stains just like tumeric. I cannot imagine anyone with light colored sheets and pillowcases enjoying this

Gentle but strong

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I'm an experienced retinal user, and love the ordinary products anyway, so I was glad when they released their 2% retinal serum. Absolutely satisfied, I upgraded from the 1% from another brand and this is just great. However, even though retinal is more gentle than retinol, new users should start with lower percentage to avoid irritation, this is for advanced users

Fab Results

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

Never used something like this before, but now it's a must have. Great at evening skin tone and lines, noticed results even after 2 weeks of use. A little goes a long way!

Love

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using this for a few weeks and have noticed a difference to my skin. It’s a slightly stronger retinol so definitely be cautious about how many times a week you use it. I love it!!

Easy to use

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

This project is PERFECT for beginners. It’s a slightly stronger retinol so definitely be cautious about how many times a week you use it, but the pump disperses the PERFECT amount of product and it goes onto the skin so easily. I love it!!

Too early to say

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I've only been using this a couple of weeks, I've developed a small patch of little breakouts so I'm hoping this is just the retinal purge before the good stuff!!
