  Pros

  There is still no ingredient as effective as retinol in improving fine lines and wrinkles, so I really wanted to use a retinol product. However, I couldn't find one because most of them are silicone-based or contain only a very small amount of retinol. But then I found a product from Paula's Choice that doesn't contain silicone, so I immediately bought it. When I used other retinol products, I would experience itchiness or small bumps under my eyes, but this one is really gentle and non-irritating. I'm not sure if it's just my imagination, but I feel like my skin looks brighter and my pores appear smaller, so I'm quite satisfied.

  Cons

  I was so impressed with how great it felt when I first applied it that I had high expectations for how much it would improve my skin. But it's not quite that dramatic - it's more like it's just maintaining the current state of my skin and slowing down the aging process.

  Tip

  It's quite expensive, though. I only buy it when it's on a 20% sale.

  Pros

  I purchased this product hoping to see results, as I have been struggling with adult acne for several years, which has led to enlarged pores and a significant loss of skin elasticity. After using it for about a month now, the effects have been great. My complexion has become brighter, and my skin feels a bit more supple. It's definitely a noticeable difference from before I started using it.

  Cons

  The product has a distinctive sour smell, and the price is quite steep... They say that people with sensitive skin may experience peeling or redness during the initial usage, but even though I have acne-prone and extremely oily skin, I didn't have any issues with flaking. I suppose people may react differently, so it's still best to use caution.

  Tip

  I only apply it at night. After cleansing, I wipe my face with a toner, then mix a couple of drops of it into my Bioxidin Phyto Moisturizer. This combination works wonders for me, as my skin tends to get very dehydrated, and this leaves it feeling incredibly moisturized.
