"This is a great one if you're looking for a beginner friendly retinol or for those who have super sensitive skin. [...] The 0.1% concentration is on par with most formulas in drugstores for effectiveness. [...] This is a great one to use for those who want to maybe get on anti-aging treatment earlier on for prevention or for very mild concerns of fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin texture and skin tone. [...] It's a creamy formula, and for those with oily skin, [...] you can use it without having to put on another layer of moisturizer. [...] For those with dry skin, you can certainly use moisturizer on top of it, but it's such a creamy moisturizing base that you can definitely use it alone. I've used this on my neck to test the gentleness of it, and I certainly did not break out or get irritated. So I feel pretty confident about recommending it for those who are beginners or have super sensitive skin."

"I love this one because it's super gentle, it's at a good concentration that's effective, and along with the vitamin E it's very creamy and nourishing. I really have been loving it during the winter colder months especially for my neck, an area that I can't readily use tretinoin on. If you have dry skin or are new to retinoids and want to try an over-the-counter retinol that is helpful for improving skin texture and skin tone but worry about irritation, I highly recommend checking this one out."
