What the gurus are saying

A thick, rich moisturizer with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, it earns praise for leaving skin softer and a little brighter, plus a centella asiatica extra you'd usually find in K Beauty. The pushback is twofold: the "proretinol" label is called a marketing gimmick, since it's really retinyl palmitate acting as an antioxidant, and the brand isn't cruelty free, which is enough to put off some gurus.

"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 Revitalift moisturizer."

"Over the last several weeks I've noticed that my skin just looks softer, it looks a little bit brighter. [...] This is a lovely option and I also like that there's Centella asiatica as well. Centella asiatica is great for anti-aging as well but it helps to moisturize the skin and I really love this ingredient. You find this a lot in K Beauty but you're starting to see it more even in drugstore skincare products as well."

"If you're in the market for a moisturizer with hyaluronic acid instead of a serum, try the L'Oréal Revitalift moisturizer, it's nice. It highlights hyaluronic acid and ceramide to help the moisture barrier, and it also has niacinamide, which is good for redness and has anti-aging benefits as an antioxidant."

"It's a thick, rich moisturizer. It's got niacinamide, which is a workhorse of the skin care industry, [...] great ingredient for dark spots, redness, the moisture barrier, anti-glycation, anti-aging. Wonderful if you tolerate it. It also has proretinol, which is marketed as a precursor to improve collagen, but that's a marketing gimmick. It's actually retinyl palmitate, a retinyl ester that acts as an antioxidant in skincare products."

"Aging is a privilege and being able to afford this product is a privilege because it's $21 and [...] if this works for Lucy's skin I'm happy. I know a lot of people have said this is a powerful moisturizer and it is good, but it's not cruelty free so you know it doesn't really get my coin, it doesn't get my money. But [...] if you want to keep using that, Lucy, go for it."
