  • Not beginner-friendly retinoid formula

What the gurus are saying

This serum packs two forms of retinoid plus peptides, glycolic acid, and antioxidants into one formula, and gurus consistently praise it as a comprehensive one-step anti-aging treatment. Most find it effective and well-tolerated, though a few note the combination of retinoid and exfoliating acids means it's not beginner-friendly, best for people who have already used milder retinols and want to level up. At around $35, $52, reviewers highlight the value of getting three products' worth of actives in one bottle.

"I really love the Remedy Healthy Aging Serum which has a load of beneficial anti-aging ingredients. One of which is Auroline. It's one of the standout ingredients in this. And this will work really, really well as an all over treatment. It's inexpensive. It can work as a one-and-one because you could literally just cleanse your skin, put this on, use sunscreen if you're applying on a morning or a moisturizer on an evening and you have a robust anti-aging skincare routine in just one product. I think that's why this is so popular and the Auroline in this is doing a lot of the heavy lifting. You need to apply Auroline morning and evening which is what Remedy recommend. And that's going to give you the very best results according to these studies."

Top Rated Anti Aging Serums 2025 - SUPREME ANTI AGING RESULTS
"This is the Remedy Healthy Aging Serum. Remedy is a [...] brainchild of Dr. Sha, who's part of the doctorly skincare channel here on YouTube. [...] In here, you've got a multitude of different actives, which are really going to help target all those individual skin concerns. You've got encapsulated retinoids, two different versions, which are going to help to boost collagen and elastin production, minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. You've also got resveratrol, which is a fantastic antioxidant. [...] This is going to protect the collagen that we already have to minimize the appearance of any degradation. And most importantly, resveratrol is one of the very best antioxidants for preventing hyperpigmentation, kind of supercharging our skin's defenses to minimize the risk of dark spots and discoloration caused by sun damage and irritation. And finally, you've got a beautiful blend of peptides, metatricxel, azuroline. These are going to boost collagen, plump the skin, and just return some firmness to the skin, too. I really think this is a comprehensive serum that you can actually just use as almost like a one and done. It's not the cheapest out there. I think I paid £35 for mine, so it's not super expensive, but just know that you're kind of getting a three-in-one with this product, which makes it actually quite affordable when you think of what you pay on three individual products."

Ultimate ANTI AGING SERUMS 2025 - Firmer Skin / Fewer Wrinkles FAST
"The Remedy Healthy Aging Serum has it all. You've got your retinoids, you've got your hyperpigmentation targeting ingredients, and you've got your calming and soothing ingredients too. It is a one-stop shop for anti-aging. I love this serum so much. My skin has really missed it. This is a product that's going to help you streamline your skincare routine. Why have four serums when one can take their place? This is such a wonderful product, and the whole Remedy skincare line is amazing. Worth it every single time. The price point is really fair too. When I got my first one sent in PR, I loved it, and then I came to purchase it myself thinking it would be expensive, but it really wasn't. I was pleasantly surprised by the price point. When you think of what you're getting in terms of this formula, definitely worth it every single time."
No1 ANTI AGING SERUM 2025 - Reduce Wrinkles Fast
"You could literally just use this, start with a cleanser, use this, finish with a moisturizer and you'd have a really effective evening routine. It's going to target fine lines and wrinkles, fade hyperpigmentation, and boost firmness and hydration. It uses those key anti-aging favorites like retinal, my favorite form of retinoid, but lots of others that are really going to help boost that collagen production and minimize the appearance of aging. [...] I love the packaging, extra points for that, because you can just see how effective this is. It's an airless pump, which is beautiful. This is the whole brand, the brainchild of Dr. Shah, who's here on YouTube under the Doli banner. I knew when he came out with his own skincare line it was going to be good, but I maybe didn't expect it to be this good. [...] Not as cheap as the other two, but it packs a punch, and I do feel that for the price it's worth every single penny. It really doubles down on that healthy aspect of the title. None of the ingredients in here are going to strip, dry, or damage the skin, and so it's a really nice holistic but also gentle approach to anti-aging. I love it. The packaging, 10 out of 10. The formulation is up there too, and the price point is so good when you look at that formulation."

"If you're somebody that just wants a really effective sensitive skin friendly anti-aging serum, the Remedy Healthy Aging Serum has got your back every single time.

You can use this and you'll see some great results, or you can [...] supplement it with other actives and other serums on top if you want. It's this sort of flexibility that I really appreciate. Whilst it's not the most potent option on the market, it's certainly one of the most comprehensive. That's why I think it's a little bit of a hidden gem. For those of you that want to streamline, this is just everything."

The First Do-It-All Anti-Aging Serum?! Remedy Healthy Aging Serum Review, How to Use, Dupes
"For those with less aging issues, it might be better, or for those with younger skin. I wasn't overly blown away by the performance, so let me go back and talk about the ingredients. We've got niacinamide, which is a brightening ingredient. Glycolic acid, an HA exfoliant, most effective and efficient when it's between three and four pH. When glycolic acid is used in the proper amount or percentage at the proper pH, it actually helps with firming and collagen production in skin with regular use. I didn't see that with this one, but I have noticed it with other glycolic acids and AHAs that I've used regularly. There's lactic acid, an HA exfoliant, again best between three and four pH. When used properly at the proper pH, it helps with skin thickness and wrinkles. There's retinol, the anti-aging gold standard ingredient, helps with fine lines, wrinkles, brightness, and prevents acne and breakouts. Phospholipids, a skin-identical ingredient for barrier repair, and phospholipids are also used with other ingredients to create liposomes, which they mention they use for their retinoids. Liposomes are great because they help deliver ingredients penetrating into the skin, as well as allow for a slow release, so it's not like wham bam the retinoids are in your skin and it's irritating. It helps to"

4 NEW and Exciting Updates to My Mature Anti- Aging Skincare Routine at 58 years old!
"Remedy for Aging has also an amazing ingredient deck. It has retinol and retinal, which is something I wanted to start introducing into my skincare routine because retinol takes a couple conversions to get to retinoic acid whereas retinal only takes one conversion so you're just getting that much closer to the gold standard of retinoic acid. So this was a great find. It has retinol, retinal, argireline which just helps smooth muscles. I did not have great luck with argireline as a single ingredient formula from The Ordinary, completely irritated my skin. This doesn't at all. So if you're interested in trying argireline, which is supposed to help topically reduce the look of wrinkles just by smoothing out the skin, and you have tried the single ingredient and found some irritation, try it in this formula. I have like absolutely no irritation. It also has Matrixyl 3000, which is an amazing combination of peptides."

I have used this before, no problem at all."

"This is their ages formula and it has retinol and retinal dhyde. So retinal dhyde only needs one conversion to get to retinoic acid, so it's just kind of a little bit of a bump up. This is the one that I'm using right now. This product by Remedy is non-irritating on my really sensitive skin and it's been nice to get back to using a retinoid after having all those issues with tret and after using it for years and years."

"When I was testing this product and I used it for a good three weeks, I never stopped using my peptides. I was using this alongside and I absolutely loved the results. This product has retinol and retinol. So, this is not a beginner friendly formula. This is great if you have used maybe a mild retinol 0.1, 0.2, something like that, and you want to really level up. This is a level up formula. I love the fact that it has a variety of ingredients. Glycolic acid works to help the other products penetrate better. You've got your [niacinamide], ceramides, hydrating [niacinamide] that is brightening, you've got your peptides, you've got a combination of retinol, retinol, fabulous. If you are currently using a 0.2 to 0.3, you really want to level up, get this. Don't leave your peptides. Use your peptides along with this and I promise you, you'll not be disappointed. This is something I am now recommending to my clients who are in North America, Canada, as basically a remedy for pore size."

It's a beautiful product."

"They say all you have to do is cleanse your skin at night and then you put this on, that's it, like that's your entire nighttime routine. I [...] love the process of skincare, but it would certainly cut down my time to like 4 minutes. [...] I'm just not [...] sure when I'm going to try this and whether or not it will be in conjunction with other products. But [...] this is incredibly affordable anyway, and particularly if you think about all the other stuff you don't have to buy. This is about $52, which is incredibly good. Jill said she loves it, it's made her life easy."

"I had some requests to include a retinoid in this video, and Remedy sent me all three of their retinol serums. With my sensitive skin, I felt like using them was a big risk, so it was actually my partner who tried them, and I have watched her skin improve and improve. She does a very simple routine, just cleanser, one of their serums, and a moisturizer, and I cannot get over how much her skin has improved. So Remedy is doing something very right to win a spot in this video."

"The Remedy for Healthy Aging has encapsulated retinol, retinaldehyde, glycolic acid, niacinamide, peptides, ceramides, a whole bunch of things you'd want on your skin. With the combination of glycolic acid, encapsulated retinol and the retinaldehyde, I'm not sure about the concentration, I am not sure if everyone will be able to tolerate that each night on their face. But if you do and just want one thing, it's really quite a lot of good stuff in there, so excited to give it a go."

"Remedy Healthy Aging Serum is at a 0.5% concentration. I don't consider it to be like a retinol serum just because it's got retinaldehyde plus peptides plus alpha hydroxy acids plus the antioxidants, but technically it does have retinaldehyde in it at effective concentrations and so could fall into the category of retinaldehyde serums even though it's a more comprehensive approach to aging skin. It's hard to pigeonhole any Remedy product into the one active ingredient because they're so comprehensive. I would say that's more of an aging product for anyone who is aging than just a straightup retinol product."

It's retinaldehyde, resveratrol, glycolic acid, argireline, matrixyl, all the peptides, all the exfoliants, all the retinaldehyde. It comes out in this beautiful kind of lime yellow color because of the retinaldehyde that's in it. This basically has everything that you need in one formula for [...] aging skin. I have a little bit of drier skin and my main goals are to target fine lines, wrinkles and texture, and the retinaldehyde in this does the trick. I just kind of stick with this. It's a bit simpler for me."

Wrinkles? Texture? Sun Damage? Aging Skin? Remedy for Healthy Aging is HERE!
"This product is super stacked with powerful actives. You have your retinol and retinaldehyde, which is a dual retinoid, so you have your encapsulated retinol and then you have retinaldehyde which is one step closer to retinoic acid. [...] This is going to be helping with your fine lines and wrinkles through various mechanisms, it's supporting collagen and elastin, and it's also increasing your skin cell turnover so it's going to help quite a bit with texture. Then you have your lactic and glycolic acid which are exfoliants, so they're going to improve texture and they also send signals into your dermis to support collagen and elastin. On top of that they help your peptides penetrate deeper into the skin. You have your argireline and it has trouble getting deeper into the skin, and by adding these exfoliants we're helping it increase its penetration so that it can perform what it needs to perform. The Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, this one mimics the botox effect so it works on the SNARE complex and is thought to decrease muscle movement."

What the evidence says.

Independent of what the gurus think, this is what the published research supports about the main active ingredients here.

Retinoids

Retinoids are among the best studied ingredients in dermatology, with solid evidence for acne and for the fine lines and rough texture that come from sun exposure. Dryness and flaking in the first few weeks are common and usually settle.

Source: DermNet

Niacinamide

Niacinamide has evidence behind it for redness, uneven tone and supporting the skin barrier, and it is usually well tolerated even by skin that reacts to most things.

Alpha hydroxy acids

Alpha hydroxy acids loosen the bonds holding dead cells at the surface. The evidence supports smoother texture and more even tone over time, and they can leave skin more sensitive to sun.
