I find myself looking for more functional products and studying ingredients more closely. This product seems to meet all my needs. I hope it will show significant results!
ConsMost functional products have a slightly medicinal scent, which is a bit disappointing.
TipSince it's a functional product, it's best to use it in controlled amounts. It works well if you apply it gradually to problem areas, absorbing it bit by bit, and then layer it for better results.

If I'm not careful, my skin can react badly, so I always check the ingredients and choose gentle products. Given this contains retinol, I was initially cautious and started with tiny amounts for the first few days. Thankfully, my skin seemed to tolerate the ingredients well, so I gradually increased to using about a pinky finger's length. I applied it to areas with blemish concerns and on healing acne spots. Surprisingly, I noticed a significant improvement in just one day - it was so remarkable that I had to take a photo! (The second photo shows my skin with light makeup, but you can see how well it's healed - I was amazed!) Honestly, I've tried stronger formulas before, but they were a hassle to use sparingly and only at night, plus the smell was off-putting. This one, however, is as easy to apply as a regular moisturizer, so I think I'll use it more frequently. I plan to keep testing it out, and if it continues to work well, I'll stock up during a sale.
ConsThe scent is honestly neither great nor terrible, but after multiple applications, there's a slight rubber-like smell. I avoid applying it around my eyes and mouth, focusing instead on areas with acne scars or dark spots. This might be challenging for those concerned about those specific areas! It might disappoint those looking for a more potent formula. As someone with sensitive skin, I actually prefer this milder version! The amount is easy to control, which is great, but I have a feeling I'll be using it quite frequently.
TipIf you apply this with some extra hydration and get a good night's sleep, you can really feel your skin recovering. I'd recommend doing a patch test with a small amount (about the size of a grain of rice) to start!

(I've mentioned the reason for discontinuing use in the 'Cons' section) #Absorption It applies smoothly and absorbs completely without sitting on the skin. Even in the hot summer, I liked that I could apply it lightly without feeling stuffy.
Cons#Blemishes After 4 days of use, small, millet-like blemishes appeared all over my face... So I've stopped using it for now. Since I'm not sure if it's due to this product, I plan to try it again once my skin condition normalizes. #Scent It has a medicinal smell... I prefer this to strong fragrances, but it might be hit or miss depending on personal preference.
TipAs mentioned on the product box, please apply sunscreen if using during the day. However, I personally prefer to use retinol-containing skincare products only at night. Not only does retinol become inactive when exposed to UV rays, rendering it ineffective, but it can also potentially accelerate skin aging. So, I recommend applying it before bed.
