CeraVeAnti Aging Retinol Serum For Face, Encapsulated Retinol With Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide & Ceramides, Smooths Wrinkles & Fine Lines, Gentle Skin Brightening Serum, Fragrance Free, 1 Oz

This is by far my favorite retinol when it comes to a beginner or anyone that has highly sensitive dry, raw irritated skin. Most people focus on the percent concentration of retinol or retinaldehyde or tretinoin, but the biggest problem with that is it matters more that you use the product on a daily consistent basis. Now, while some people are able to tolerate very high percentages of retinol and its other forms, I personally have a really hard time tolerating high dose retinol. I continue to come back to this product over the years. It’s definitely more expensive than I would like. I think if it was a $15 price point that would be perfect value for money that being said it does a great job of giving me glass skin and enhancing the overall clarity of my skin. The best part being that I can use is slightly over many thick layers of serums and creams without my face feeling like it’s being burned off the next morning. If you struggle like me with retinol, apply a medium to thick moisturizer of your choice. Wait, at least 10 minutes and then apply one to two pumps of this retinol at night time that buffering of moisturizer and thyme will help this retinal be tolerated better. It also has encapsulated retinol which slows the release. I doubt anyone is still reading this, but if you are, I used to be really upset that they did not disclose the retinol percent i’m assuming it’s below 0.3% that being said I notice a considerable change in my skin where I know it’s working. I also still do get a little bit of dryness if I don’t wait 10 min after skin care , which allows me to know that this is in fact having an impact on my skin.

Use Cera Ve skin care products almost exclusively. This retinol is a lotion and is very easy to use, just the right consistency. It helps control my skin breakouts, even now at 73 years old. I get many compliments about the quality of my skin and that I don't look my age. My dermatologist recommended also. Price so much better than other products that do not work as well. Not much scent.

No issues so far, feels good on my skin

Love CeraVe's Anti-Aging Retinol Serum! It's gentle yet effective, reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Improved skin texture and tone. Fragrance-free and non-irritating, perfect for sensitive skin. Easy to incorporate into my nightly routine. Highly recommend for a smoother, more radiant complexion!

This serum is great. It helps a lot with wrinkle reduction. Just remember that this is a part of your nighttime routine not the morning and you do need to use a moisturizer on top of it. It is not greasy and dries down very nice on your skin. For the price it is a fantastic option. You get a good amount per bottle so it will last you a decent amount of time. Also remember that when you are first starting out to slowly build up your retinol use, do not jump into it all at once. It has a good consistency and really helpful for your skin.

I’ve struggled with stubborn facial blemishes for years, and this serum made a huge difference. Within a few weeks, my skin looked smoother, clearer, and more even-toned. It’s gentle enough for daily use, didn’t dry me out, and the added ceramides really helped keep my skin hydrated. Love that it’s fragrance-free too. Definitely a staple in my skincare routine now!

This retinal product is working well-what a surprise! I’m using it at night and making sure to use moisturizer on top and sunscreen plus moisturizer in the morning!I’m seeing a difference and I’m pleased!

It absorbs quickly, layers well under moisturizers, and causes no irritation.However, the results are modest at best. After consistent use over several weeks, improvements in texture and tone were minimal, making scarcely any difference in evening out tone and line reduction. The low retinol concentration likely makes it suitable for beginners, but those expecting visibly transformative effects may find it underpowered.A decent starter product, but not a standout if you're already accustomed to more potent formulations. A reliable brand and easily accessible but for the same reason very entry level and overall lackluster results as compared to another brand i've entirely switched to.
