What the gurus are saying

Gurus praise the moisturizer's texture and hydrating performance, noting it smooths fine lines and works well in layering routines. The main criticism centers on strong fragrance that can irritate sensitive skin. There is consensus that while it contains anti-aging actives like niacinamide, the retinol and vitamin C forms used are lower-efficacy derivatives that function as antioxidants rather than delivering the collagen-boosting or sun-damage reversal claims associated with pure retinol or ascorbic acid.

"As a moisturizer, it's great. It's going to smooth out little fine lines just by moisturizing the skin. It is a really nice consistency. You already know I'm going to point this out though. It has a strong fragrance. The fragrance actually stung my face."

"It's a thick, rich moisturizer. It has niacinamide, which is a workhorse ingredient for dark spots, redness, the moisture barrier, anti-glycation, anti-aging. Wonderful if you tolerate it. It also has proretinol, which is a marketing gimmick because they know that the term retinol sells better. It has retinyl palmitate, which is a retinyl ester. These act as antioxidants in skincare products, but they do not do what retinol or retinaldehyde do. They don't improve collagen production. So it's not the same thing as getting a retinol as far as the outcome. It also has vitamin C, but not ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid is the form of vitamin C which has been shown to improve collagen production and reverse some sun damage, but it has stability issues and is challenging to get into the skin. The other vitamin C derivatives work at the surface of the skin as antioxidants, but it doesn't appear as though they actually improve collagen production or reverse sun damage."

"I was putting on my moisturizer first because I am doing the retinoid sandwich where I put moisturizer on first. This is the L'Oreal Revital Lift moisturizer."
