CeraVeAnti Aging Retinol Serum | Cream Serum for Smoothing Fine Lines and Skin Brightening | With Retinol, Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, and Ceramides | 1 Ounce

I've used all the retinol creams on the market.... Trinny London (£69)... Paula's choice (also expensive but U can get a tiny bottle - a week's worth of treatment for £14).. The Ordinary's latest retinol cream which is great but, due to being used at night it stained my pillows! And, I've used prescription retinol from Skin & Me.This is a milder formula but, it absolutely does the job, it isn't expensive, irritating or staining! This is the 2nd time I've bought it and I'll continue to buy it as well.It isn't greasy or thick, it has a pale yellow colour (as retinol SHOULD have). It doesn't dry my skin out like all the other retinols did, and that's probably due to the Hyaluronic acid in the formula. It's creamy and easy to apply.... after cleansing and toning. It totally prevents spots and my skin is glowy and healthy looking. It's really smoothed out my uneven skin tone and at 47yrs old my skin is the best it's ever been in my life!I used it every night with a rich nightcrr over it then, in the morning I use cleansing balm to remove it but, I don't double cleanse as I feel that might irritate my skin. I then apply a veramide serum, am Alpha Arbutin serum (which totally takes away the slight redness caused by the retinol) followed by a vitamin C serum, a light moisturiser then SPF50++++ which is essential after retinol as retinol makes your skin more sensitive to the sun.I use for 28days as that's how long it takes for the epidermis to heal and repair itself, then I take a 2 week break where I'm using collagen sheet masks and turmeric masks at night before Hyaluronic acid serum and my night cream. I also do micro needling during my break time from retinol followed by a collagen serum and then ceramidesm This gives your skin a boost and makes your skin noticeable plumper. I do this to give my skin a break from the retinol and so I can focus on moisturising and helping collagen stimulationSoooo, this retinol will remain part of my skincare routine cos it's absolutely brilliant and great value for money. And retinol DOES erase fine lines with persistent useI took this photo yesterday, there is no filter on it and I'm 47 years old.I recommend this 100% and will be totally gutted if it's ever discontinued!Took this photo earlie

Effective and a great price. I use it on my waddle and find it to be smoothing and improves the look of my neck. Not necessarily a lasting improvement but still using regularly with pleasing results. Can beat the cost

I felt like I could see the results after finishing up the bottle, which lasted quite a while compared to other ones I had tried. Also, I felt as if it contributed to my skin looking healthy and being quite soft.

This product is amazing I use it along with other Cerave products. Fine lines are reducing but I have only been using it a few weeks so it’s not an instant fix but really happy with this product so far.

The media could not be loaded. I have only started to use it, feels good and easy to apply. Not sure about the results but will see. Tube is quite small, 30ml so hope it is worth the money.

Works well with skin brightening

Bought on recomendation to perk up my lackluster winter complexion.. my skin struggled to tolerate it for a couple of weeks and I had to stop with the serum and night cream and just continue with the facewash and day and eye cream every other day then gradually work the two back in again over a few weeks and there has now been some improvement and I will continue. It's a good price for the quantity and quality of product and I like the simplicity of the packaging. It has a nice fresh fragrance that is very subtle and you only need a small amount of product.It arrived in very good time and sensibly packaged.I think it is wise to do some research on this product, I didn't and so it may not be the best/right formulation for my mature dryish skin which is my own fault to be fair to the product. My daughter swears by it though.

I’ve been using it for two months now, and I think I can see an improvement. I’m gutted I didn’t take any “before” pictures to compare with the results. But even my eyelids aren’t drooping over my eyes anymore — that alone feels like progress!
