Retinol 1% Serum with Niacinamide & Centella Jole Retinol 10 Serum

The color and density did not bother me, but I think my skin probably needs more retinol in the formula. Overall, the Serum with 1% retinol is a decent product to give retinol a try.

I ordered this serum in hopes of getting rid of breakouts and improving the condition of my skin, as something always happens to it in the spring.
The first thing that I didn't like was that the serum came in almost half of the tube. I won't blame Makeup for this, as nothing spilled and the tube was fully sealed. It's probably how they distribute it in production, or maybe I was just "lucky."
As for the results so far, there's probably no point in talking about them. I haven't been using it for long or frequently, and it's unlikely to last for a long time. There's really not much of it, even though the consistency is thick, and that's sad because it's not exactly budget-friendly.

I use the serum as part of my evening skincare routine several times a week. I have oily skin in my T-zone and occasionally break out. I haven't noticed any significant changes, either positive or negative. However, I still find myself reaching for it, so I give it a rating of 5. I like that my skin feels soft and non-greasy after using the serum. I haven't experienced any flakiness because my skin is already accustomed to acids.

This serum is amazing! It's my first time trying retinol and the results are impressive. My skin has become smoother and has a healthy glow. It also heals wounds and pimples quickly. I have combination skin with enlarged pores and blackheads, and the pores have become slightly less noticeable. I started using it twice a week and gradually increased to once every three days. I also use acids alongside it, but it's not recommended to combine them.

I liked the consistency of this product, it applies smoothly on the skin without feeling sticky and absorbs nicely. The jar lasted exactly one month with daily application. I noticed results, as after a week my skin started to gently peel (as it should) and there was indeed a renewing effect. I purchased this serum to combat acne and breakouts between my eyebrows and on my forehead. The breakouts really disappeared without exaggeration, but unfortunately, the acne did not clear up completely in a month. It requires at least 3-4 months of regular use of retinol. I also got the serum for my mom, who has dry aging skin, and her skin reacted with irritation, but my oily skin did not. My only complaint is about the dispenser, in my personal opinion, a dropper is not suitable for this type of product consistency.

I have serious doubts about the percentage of retinol in this product. My skin always reacts to retinol even in very low concentrations (0.1, which I can only use once a week). But here, the dosage is huge for me. I thought I would apply it only on specific areas, but there is no effect even with a thick layer applied to the entire face every day. The same situation occurs with their serum containing 15% azelaic acid. Nothing happens at all. The percentages indicated are high, but my skin doesn't react and therefore there is no effect either.

I received a sample and it lasted me for 6 uses. I used it for three consecutive days, both in the morning and evening. I have thick, porous skin that is extra oily. The serum has a pleasant texture, absorbs quickly, and does not leave any stickiness. After three days, my skin tone improved and there was significantly less sebum production. I did not experience any negative effects, possibly because my skin is used to various treatments (I have used tretinoin from 0.025 to 0.1). Overall, the serum is great and I am pleasantly surprised that a domestic manufacturer has created such an amazing product.

Retinol really works. My skin is well acquainted with similar products, so I use it every evening. After a week, as expected, there was a slight peeling that went away on its own. The pores became less noticeable and the complexion evened out.

The product has almost no scent. It has a very pleasant, melting consistency that quickly absorbs without leaving any stickiness. The usage is higher than average, so it runs out quickly.

The only downside is the packaging format. The serum's texture is too thick for the dropper. More serum sticks to the dropper than actually goes into it, so you need to be very careful when closing it to avoid soiling the neck of the bottle. It would be much more convenient with a pump.

My first experience with retinol. I knew that my skin doesn't react to anything, no allergic reactions at all, so I went straight for the 1% concentration. And it turned out just like I expected, no irritation or peeling noticed. My skin immediately became noticeably more even in tone. I hope to see the smoothing effect over time as well.

I decided to return to using retinol (my skin has had a 4-month break). Before this serum, I used 0.3 percent, but I had never tried anything as potent as this. I applied it twice a night, every 3 days. My skin started to peel a lot, especially where I had breakouts. However, it's not because of dryness, as the areas where my skin isn't peeling are delicate and not tight. I started reading and trying to understand what's happening, and it seems like it's because of cell turnover acceleration. I'm a bit scared to do any peels right now, and I don't know how to get rid of this flakiness. I haven't noticed any particular sensitivity in my skin. The serum itself is pleasant, odorless, and easy to apply, and it absorbs very quickly.
