Retinol Correction Deep Wrinkle Serum

Irritating

Overpowering Smell

Unsatisfactory Scent

Removes Wrinkles

Exfoliates Well

Smooth

Improves Skin Texture

Soothing

Easy to Apply

As with all retinol products, I want to see more definite wrinkle improvement effects, but if I apply too much, it could lead to serious side effects. Since I can't just apply a large amount, it seems I can only expect a gradual, subtle effect.

This is a serum with a dense texture.
I think it's effective and worth using.
Wrinkles don't disappear, but I think it's comfortable to think that there is a slight improvement in skin elasticity.
It seems to be a good combination to apply with a moisturizing serum and a barrier cream.

(해외) 레티놀 코렉션 딥 링클 세럼

The first retinol product I tried was the Dr. Différent one, and when I ran out, I happened to get a great deal on it at iHerb, purchasing it for just over 10,000 won. But the retinol concentration might be a bit high, as I sometimes felt irritation, so I had to take breaks from using it, and ended up using it for quite a while. I'm really not sure how to accurately assess the retinol content in products on the market... Also, from the point where I felt the irritation, I started applying the cream first before the product, and it's recommended to have the retinol product contact the skin first for retinol products. The retinol product I'm using now goes on right after the toner, and I finish with a cream, but if possible, it's recommended to apply the retinol product before any creams or lotions.

- The scent is a bit strong..
- Before getting used to it, I felt a slight irritation.

- I was able to purchase it at a really low price, just over 10,000 won, when iHerb had a discount.
- The spreadability was good.
- The opaque packaging with a pump gives the impression that they put effort into the stability of the contents.
- It seems to have helped with soothing.
- My pores do feel a bit tighter, but less so than the Dr. Différent product with lower retinol content and the Ordinary product I'm currently using. (Of the three products I've used, the Ordinary product seems to have been the most effective for my pores.)
- The wrinkles haven't disappeared, but I'm satisfied that they haven't gotten deeper.

If you use it with a night cream, your skin will feel really smooth in the morning.

The amount is small, the container is heavy, and it would be better if there was an ingredient list.

I used it in the United States. After using it, my skin definitely felt smoother in the morning. I'm not sure how much retinol it contains, but I didn't experience any adjustment period. They say it has a high concentration of bad ingredients, but I'm not sure yet.

Try mixing a small amount into your regular moisturizer or apply it lightly before your cream. It's better to use it intermittently rather than daily. Sunscreen is a must!!!

When used excessively, it caused flaky skin the next day, which was quite uncomfortable.

The skin texture is visibly improved as the dead skin cells are smoothed out.

Make sure to smell the product before purchasing... the fragrance is not only strange, but also unpleasant... it has a scent that makes you hesitant to apply, like something that's been sitting on your grandma's vanity for ages... While Roc may have been a pioneer in retinol skincare, these days there are decent retinol products from other drugstore brands, so you don't have to stick with this one.

1. The ingredients... I didn't really check them before buying (it wasn't even on Hwahae) and now I see it's a chemical cocktail. 

2. The scent... this isn't the 80s, and it's a strong, unpleasant odor that I wouldn't even put in my mom's cosmetics.

Upon reflection, there are only two disappointing aspects, but they are so powerful that I couldn't even use half the product and had to banish it from my vanity. I'm usually the type to stubbornly use up products, but this one didn't even cause any special troubles - I just couldn't stand using it.

The name is Serum, but it's actually thicker than typical serums, and closer in texture to a lotion~cream. After cleansing, it's best to apply it right away to get the full retinol benefits. Applying it right after toner made my skincare routine a bit messy due to the cream-like consistency.

The cream color is the same as the packaging... a dull gold color... it also seems to have some fine shimmer mixed in...

I was hoping to at least see some reduction in wrinkles, but even before using half the product, I couldn't bear to continue using it, so I passed it on to my mom.

The one good thing is the packaging! It comes in an opaque pump bottle to prevent the retinol from degrading.

I only use it in the evenings.
Try to gradually adapt to it.
You need to use the full amount that comes out in one pump to see the effects.
I apply it to half my face with one pump.
That's the amount needed to see the effects.
It takes time to get adapted to it in the beginning.

There are too many bad ingredients in it :(
It would be great if they could make it without those.
The quantity is also too little...
I wish they had made it in Korea...
It would be better if the price was a bit lower.
And I don't know if it's a trade secret, but there is no mention of the percentage of retinol in the ingredients, which is confusing and difficult for first-time users.
So I had to start using it in small amounts and gradually increase.
Earlier I was using 1.1%, but I started using this right away.
In the beginning, there was a lot of irritation.
It took about one and a half to two months to fully adapt.
The usage is about one or two pumps each time.

The wrinkles have diminished a lot and my skin has become smooth.
All the fine lines have disappeared.
I'm not sure about the deep wrinkles as they have disappeared.
There is a slight stinging sensation when I apply it?
A feeling of a thin layer peeling off?
A burning sensation?
There are sensations like that.
It seems the effects are due to those sensations.
When there are no effects, there is just a tightening feeling without any of those sensations.
