This product is not equal with retinol, HOWEVER you can use it before applying retinol and even before your evening skin care routine like I do. It really helps to decrease blemishes and pigmentation. After applying this on your face, it may feel dry so follow applying a nice moisturizer and you can call it a good night. Definitely a favorite! Bonus: the price is awesome!

I use this retinol toner under retinol serums, I think it s good ,but I wonder what experts should say.Is this toner meant to be used under retinol products? seems to work just fine.

Great product, I bought it after I have been using Pixie's Glow Tonic for a long time. So that I can put it before products with retinol. It has a really delicate and pleasant smell, gives a pleasant feeling and cares for the face. Recommend to purchase

I keep reordering it. I use it in the evenings, when I use retinol. Very smoothing.

While I didn't notice any dramatic improvements in my skin, it did leave my skin feeling slightly smoother and refreshed after use.
