Amazing

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I'm so happy I gave it a chance. I couldn't get rid of my scaring and dark spots after hormonal breakouts for a long time and this product works magic for me. There's no competition considering what you get for the price. Love it!

Great for skin texture but not spots

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

Made my skin smooth and even in texture, however, didn't help my oily zones or acne breakouts as desired. Would buy again just to keep my skin smooth.

AMAZING

I've been using this for 2-3 weeks now and I can definitely see a difference in my face. My skin feels smoother and brighter and it seems to have helped calm my spots as well. Definitely buying again.

Worked wonders on my skin- clear even toned smooth translucent and glowing- the envy of many friends!! I ran out and purchased the retinol with squalene-ugh!!! That did absolutely nothing except sit on my face. Thank goodness this is back- perfect for my normal slightly sensitive skin!!

My least favourite retinol, but still a retinol for £8!

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

Bought this after my absolute love affair with using the Hand Chemistry Retinol on my face (honestly it’s an overnight wonder), thinking this would be an upgrade... but it doesn’t seem to improve skin texture or help minimise spots the way the Retinol did at all. I read the bottle of the oil more closely and think maybe my skin was responding to the vitamin C in it?! Anyway, this will probably have some long-term benefits and is a great price for those that can’t afford retinol alternatives, but just didn’t satisfy me immediately the way other retinoids do.

Good retanoid

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

For the price compared to other retinols, I love this product. I don’t notice an dramatic difference in my skin but it definitly keeps it clear and soft.

Already made a huge difference

Have been using it for a week together with the Pixi Glow Tonic. It has gotten rid of blemishes and made my skin noticeable smoother.

Retinol treatment

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I really like this product as part of my night time regime. I have been using it only a couple of days and when I wake up next the morning my face looks brighter and rested. I give it only 4 stars because if I use it on its own it's drying my skin out, so I layer it with a serum and a cream. A fantastic product I definitely buy again.
