Firm in the belief that ‘skin is complicated, skin care shouldn’t be’, Versed is both effective and affordable – harnessing the finest, proven actives to address the swathe of common skin concerns. Putting the formula first to ensure every product performs (without costing the earth), the brand has a strict list of no-go ingredients (you won’t find any parabens, sulphates or cruelty (for starters)), and transparency’s key – from what’s inside every (recyclable!) tube, to their staunch, anti-filter approach to photography: what you see is always what you get.
The ultimate intro for those who’re beginning their ‘retinol journey’ (or those with an easily upset complexion), Versed’s Press Restart Gentle Retinol Serum is here to prolong your cells’ health.
A time-defying active that rejuvenates your cells to keep them making all the ‘scaffolding’ (the elastin and collagen) that keeps skin smooth and ‘springy’, retinol defies the signs of time and helps to stall your creeping crow’s feet. Combining natural alternatives to retinol – arophira and bakuchiol – alongside encapsulated retinol itself, this works to stimulate your skin without the side-effects, so you can reap the benefits (smoother, refined, plumped and luminous skin) without the reactivity or redness. With the addition of anti-inflammatories and antioxidants to buffer your complexion from aggressors while diminishing the risk of skin rebelling, this ultra-light serum is quickly absorbed to protect and revitalise every complexion. And if that’s not incentive enough to embark on your retinol love affair, this silky treatment is vegan, cruelty-free and green (as in, actually green).
HOW: Smooth two pumps into clean, almost-dry skin. Let it sink in for one minute before your next skinc are move.
WHERE: Face and neck. Bonus points for chest. Be careful when applying to the eye area to avoid getting product in your eyes.
WHEN: Every evening after cleansing. Use alone or between lighter serums and moisturiser.
GOOD TO KNOW: Retinol speeds up skin cell turnover. Protect those fresh, new skin cells by wearing sunscreen daily.
Use within 12 months once opened, or keep it on your vanity unopened for up to two years.

Versed very gentle retinol
I have finished this one some time ago and i really enjoyed it. I travel a lot and i was searching for a gentle retinol for my travel bag, which did not have bulky or heavy packaging and worked really nice. It gave me rather subtle results but no irritation so it was worth it.
Report this reviewAwful
This product gave me painful cystic acne, worsened my scaring and my hyperpigmentation after getting a pimple. I hadn’t checked the ingredient list before but now with 3 pore clogging ingredients I understand why my skin got worse so if you have acne prone and/or sensitive skin it may not be a good option. Plus the packaging is wasteful and impractical.
Report this reviewMeh
Doesn't really do anything. I have used a whole bottle of this and it was kind of irritating and didn't feel that good. I prefer retinol in an oilier form.
Report this reviewFantastic
That’s my second bottle and i love it. If you have dry and sensitive skin this is for you! I love this and I love that it comes in a pump that gives you just the right amount while protecting the rest of the product.
Report this reviewSolid affordable retinol
Retinol is pricey, this one is affordable and does the job for a starter retinol. This was one of the first retinols I’ve used and my skin was happy.
Report this reviewOk
It was an ok retinol serum, I saw some smoothing of the skin, but no great results. Would but it again if I was starting my journey with retinols.
Report this reviewHelped a lot!
I was looking for a good beginner retinol product when I stumbled on this one. I'm very glad I did. My skin is smoother and more even when I use this and it does not irritate my skin at all, and I have sensitive skin. I'm still young so I'm very glad I found a good, mild retinol product to use before I start to use heavier treatments later in life.
Report this reviewGlowing
This serum hasn't irritated my skin, I went straight to using it every night and if you're on the oilier side you might not even need a moisturiser. I've paired it with the Versed night moisturiserÂÂ
