    Pros
    1. I found that 0.3% retinol was not irritating for me, perhaps because I have become accustomed to retinoids in medications. The instructions said to apply an amount the size of a pea (quite a lot). For the first 2 weeks, I was told to apply it every other day, then daily after that. On days when my skin felt sensitive, I tried applying the non-prescription retinol in a pea-sized amount, and it didn't sting or cause any issues. 2. There is a scent. It's a bit hard to describe, but it's not unpleasant. 3. The combination of 0.3% retinol and 2% bakuchiol is excellent for improving fine lines and boosting skin elasticity. It leaves the skin soft and smooth, and long-term use can help reduce signs of aging. I really liked that it contains soothing ingredients and peptides. The gentle formula makes it suitable for those with sensitive skin. 4. The Hwahae Testers' Clinical 0.3% Retinol + 2% Bakuchiol Treatment is an ideal product for users seeking to improve wrinkles and enhance skin firmness. The scientifically-proven ingredient combination provides effective results, and consistent use can help maintain skin health and youthfulness. While the price and initial skin response should be considered, it is evaluated as a highly effective choice for anti-aging care.
    Cons
    Due to the nature of products containing retinol, you may experience skin sensitivity when using them for the first time, and an adjustment period may be necessary. The prices are somewhat higher, which may be a factor to consider when making the initial purchase.

    Pros
    I had been using a milder retinol product but didn't see much effect, so I decided to try this Paula's Choice product, which is more of a mid-level strength. With retinol and bakuchiol, I thought it would be perfect for my oily, thick skin. However, after a few days of use, my cheekbone area turned red and my skin texture actually became rougher, with small bumps appearing. I applied two pumps all over my face, which might have been too much. I've stopped using it for now, and my skin is calming down. Once it's fully healed, I plan to try again by mixing just one pump with my regular moisturizer to help my skin adapt. For retinol products, I recommend starting with smaller amounts or using them every other day to avoid sensitivity issues.
    Cons
    Applying too much or using on irritated skin can cause immediate reactions!
