ConsI didn't feel anything with the 0.1%, but the 0.3% definitely caused some irritation, so it's best to use it cautiously

I'll use you forever! I switched from just using niacinamide, and it's truly amazing. The ultimate skin texture management. The next day, it's like my skin was wrapped in plastic - all unevenness disappeared, and my skin felt so taut, I was shocked!
ConsIf you use more than a pea-sized amount, dead skin cells flake off like scales. Ugh, it's gross. This is my fault, but I'm mentioning it since I need to point out a drawback...

ConsOne minor issue is that a bit of product tends to leak out after squeezing if you close the cap. It would be great if they could fix that

It's definitely retinol, so it can be drying - you'll need to slather on cream afterwards! But the next day, you'll notice a remarkable difference in your skin condition! I've been particularly concerned about deepening lines around my eyes and nasolabial folds lately, but I'm seeing great results, especially with fine lines! It's fantastic that it contains both pentanol and vitamin E. Despite containing 0.3% retinol, it doesn't cause much irritation! Personally, this is the most satisfying retinol product I've tried so far!
ConsTo be honest, there's nothing I dislike about it. Maybe just that it's frequently out of stock?
TipI apply a thin layer all over my face, then follow up with a generous amount of moisturizer. This way, I avoid any dryness or irritation, and in the morning, I can see my skin has a beautiful glow!

Skin texture: Using a small amount before bed makes my skin look smooth and healthy the next day. Fragrance: I liked that it's almost fragrance-free. Wrinkle improvement: My mom thinks it's effective, but I can't say for sure after just 1-2 weeks of use. I'll leave another review after using it for a longer period!
ConsIrritation: When I got greedy and used a bit too much (about the size of a bean), I developed some red spots that weren't quite blemishes or acne. It also stings a lot, especially when applying sunscreen the next day. Blemishes: I got a few pimples. However, I'm not sure if it's due to this product or because I've been drinking a lot recently, so I'll need to use it more to be certain. Dryness: I don't usually feel dryness easily, but with this, the area around my mouth gets extremely dry and more irritated. Though I've heard retinol can cause dryness naturally.
TipAlways apply sunscreen. Don't get greedy with the amount from the start.

It seems like it actually improved elasticity a bit, leading to that smoothed-out feeling. While not dramatic, there appears to be a mild wrinkle-reducing effect, albeit subtle. - For pores, I initially avoided applying it there, but later carefully observed the results. Rather than noticeably tightening pores, it seemed to slightly fade their appearance, giving my complexion a brighter look, which I appreciate. - Due to a slight shipping delay, I wish I had more time to use the product for a longer period. - Regarding blemishes, some appeared to surface slightly in areas where I first applied the product (this seems to happen when applying too much at once). For those with sensitive skin, I'd recommend starting with 0.1% rather than 0.3%. If you have sensitive skin and are new to retinol 0.3% (I tend to break out even with minimal use), it's crucial to apply a thin layer. Perhaps start with a small area and use sparingly.
Cons- While it doesn't cause major blemishes, you might experience some small, milia-like bumps. - It seems this product requires extended use to fully assess its effects.
TipI used it for the first time, then again about a week later.

Satisfaction: I definitely felt an improvement and saw guaranteed results! I'm the type who sees great effects from retinol and cica creams. The improvements were in: • Skin texture • Wrinkles • Elasticity In my early 20s, I thought retinol wasn't relevant to me, but now in my late 20s, I'm drawn to keywords like hydration and elasticity. This product seems great for those just starting out, allowing you to gradually increase the concentration while using small amounts. Texture: It's similar to Avène cream! As someone with oily skin, it felt a bit heavy and like it was sitting on top of my skin, but it didn't cause pilling with the next product, so I can overlook this due to its effectiveness.
ConsBecause I have oily skin, I felt it sitting slightly on top of my skin, but it didn't cause pilling with the next step! You'll need to follow up with a serum or moisturizer to add more hydration!
TipWith retinol, it's important to start with a lower concentration and gradually increase it, rather than jumping straight to a high concentration!

Just look at the photos! The texture of my skin has improved dramatically, which I'm so grateful for. The formula has a slightly rich cream consistency with a nearly unscented fragrance, making it easy to use without any discomfort. Photo 1) Skin condition before using the product Photo 2) Skin condition the day after first use Photo 3) Skin condition the day after third use Given that retinol products aren't meant for daily use and require intervals between applications, I wasn't sure how effective it would be. But I'm more than satisfied with the results! The improvement in my skin texture is especially impressive!
ConsDue to its rich cream consistency, I needed to use more product than expected to cover my entire face. I also experienced a slight tingling sensation the next day. While this is somewhat unavoidable with retinol products, it's a minor drawback.
TipTo minimize the characteristic burning or tingling sensation after using retinol, make sure to establish a solid skincare routine beforehand. If your skin feels dry after applying retinol, try using a panthenol cream instead of a regular moisturizer, especially around your mouth and forehead areas. This can significantly reduce dryness!

I could definitely see improvements in vertical pores and skin elasticity. Due to the high retinol concentration, I noticed more benefits even within the relatively short usage period of one week. I'm considering purchasing the 0.1% retinol version of this product!
ConsFor sensitive skin, the 0.3% retinol concentration seems too harsh. Even after an adjustment period, the areas where I applied the cream became itchy and tingly, leading to irritation. Absolutely not recommended for super sensitive skin!
TipWhen first using, squeeze out a pea-sized amount and apply it to specific areas every other day to allow your skin to adjust. Then gradually increase to full-face application. Refrigeration is a must!

No irritation, and my skin feels tighter. I think I'll be using this every day.
ConsThere's nothing particularly bad. Please don't force us to write reviews. Do I really need to write more than 20 characters to see other people's reviews?
