However, it's not a dealbreaker considering the retinol properties, just not my personal preference.
Cons- Personally, the scent is really not great for me. It smells like kimchi jar. But my sister said it's like a typical cream scent, so if you're not sensitive to it, it should be fine.
TipUse it at night. It has no greasiness, but as an ointment formulation, it is somewhat sticky.

It didn't feel sticky after application and absorbed quickly, making it comfortable to use. This was my first time using a retinol product, and I should have read the instructions more carefully. I didn't store it in the refrigerator as recommended, and I've only applied it about 3 times every 2-3 days. However, I feel like my skin's texture has improved, and the product didn't cause any burning sensations, even though I may have used more than necessary. Pore management is still a challenge, so I haven't seen those effects yet. I think this would be a good introductory retinol product for those new to it.
ConsThe strange, unpleasant medicinal smell was really off-putting. I think people sensitive to fragrances should avoid this product. That's why I took off one star.
