Retinol 0.1% & Peptides Advanced Repair Night Cream.

"This has several peptides in here, six peptides to be exact. There's 11 antioxidants and brighteners. There's also ceramides and omegas, so these ingredients really help to repair and strengthen your skin barrier. And again, you need that when you're using a retinaldehyde, but we have the peptides for anti-aging and for firming. Retinaldehydes also help to firm the skin, stimulate collagen. It targets all skin concerns, really. I only use this at night time because of the retinaldehyde, so keep this for night time and then use something different in the morning. I do like to use this on the nights that I don't feel like using tretinoin and I also bring this down my neck as well and I never experience irritation when I do that. This actually is quite gentle in my opinion. But we're all different, so be cautious. Maybe start with a couple of nights per week and then slowly increase your usage from there."

"This one has 8.7% omegas and ceramides, so a little bit higher percentage than the other one, probably because this is a higher percentage retinoid. So they want more repairing, hydrating ingredients in here to keep the skin more comfortable. Retinaldehyde is going to improve all skin concerns: texture, acne, fine lines and wrinkles, a brighter complexion. It's going to do everything and this is your main anti-aging product for your nighttime routine. This can be used every day twice a day. Because this is your night cream along with the retinaldehyde, you don't need to put any moisturizer on top of this because this truly is everything in one. This is very moisturizing and so comfortable on the skin. You don't need any more moisture in my opinion, unless you want to. This is really moisturizing enough and it's satisfying to use."

"I have been using the one by Allies of Skin, it's the Retinol and Peptides Advanced Repair Night Cream at a 0.1%, and I've been using this for about 10 months now. They had the 0.005% for ages but this is their new stronger formulation that they've just launched. It has encapsulated retinal, which is retinaldehyde, which is the strongest you can get without prescription. It has 11 antioxidants and brighteners, it has ceramide and Omega complexes, and so much more. I love it."

"I've been using the one by Allies of Skin, it's the Retinol and Peptides Advanced Repair Night Cream. This 0.1% just launched this year. They already had the 0.05% which I was using and I like this even more. It's even stronger but there is absolutely zero irritation. I've been using this for about 8 months. It's perfect for layering. I absolutely love it. My skin is just looking so nice now."

"Allies of Skin has become my go-to retinoid, it is the 0.1% retinol Advanced Repair Night Cream. Now I have been using this retinol for about seven or eight months and it is fantastic, no sensitivities whatsoever. It's thick enough that you can use this as a night cream. I had a few samples of this before they launched and the full size is sitting over here, I'm about halfway through it, so yes this will be going into the daily groove category, and yes I will be ordering a new one."

"There's a new sheriff in town. The retinal and peptide Advanced Night Repair Cream by Allies of Skin is the Rolls-Royce of retinal. The reason I say this is because of everything that's in the formulation. Firstly, the retinol is encapsulated so that means it can go deeper into our skin before being released and absorbed, so that means there's no sensitivities and it's definitely getting the job done. But then there's what I call the supporting band members. It also contains a blend of peptides that are there to help reduce the signs of aging. It has a combination of amino acids and antioxidants for firming, plumping and soothing the skin. It also has a complex of ceramides and omegas which are there to reinforce the skin barrier and maintain moisture levels. This has 11 different antioxidants and brighteners. It's incredible what they have built into this product. This comes in two strengths: it comes in the 0.05% and the 0.1%. The 0.05% is perfect for those that are just starting to show the signs of aging, maybe a few fine lines and wrinkles as well as some textural dullness. It's also perfect for those that are new to retinoids. And if you have sensitive skin it's best to really only use this every second or third night at first until you get used to it. The 0.1% is better for those..."

"The next one by Allies of Skin is the Retinol 0.1% & Peptides Advanced Repair Night Cream, and this is in the 0.1%. Now this was another new launch in 2024, well the stronger one, they always had the 0.005%, but the 0.1% retinol is new. I've been using this for about 10 or 11 months and I love it."
