However, using this from the start might cause skin irritation.
ConsFor those with sensitive skin, applying this can immediately cause skin reactions and intense tingling sensations.

The more I use this routine, the more my skin glows, and I've been told my complexion has improved significantly. I highly recommend it!
ConsThe absorption could be slightly better. It can feel a bit dry when applying, so make sure to follow up with a hydrating moisturizer at the end of your routine. I suggest starting with a small amount when you first use it. Otherwise, you might experience a tingling sensation and redness. Once your skin adapts, you can gradually increase the quantity.

TipUse in combination with a modeling mask

While it's not an overnight miracle, consistent use definitely shows results! Since the main ingredient is retinol, it's best to use a small amount and gradually build up tolerance, applying every other day to minimize skin irritation.
ConsProbably due to the retinol, using too much or applying daily can sometimes cause skin to react negatively. There's also a slight tingling sensation.

Hydration: For oily skin types, using this product after a serum provides enough moisture that you might not need an additional moisturizer.
ConsComparing this to the 0.1 product from the same brand: Irritation: The higher concentration definitely caused irritation. It was the first time I experienced irritation from a skincare product. Initially, my eyelids stung terribly. It was so uncomfortable that I couldn't even apply sunscreen in that area. When I tried avoiding the eye area, I experienced an overall burning sensation and stinging on my face, making it impossible to apply other products. I had to stop using it. After my skin returned to normal, I tried again, but the stinging and flaking returned, forcing me to discontinue use once more. Blemishes: One of the most satisfying aspects of the 0.1 product was how it reduced acne and improved skin texture, with really noticeable results. However, this product didn't seem to have the same level of effectiveness. It's puzzling and surprising how such a difference in concentration can lead to such different outcomes.
TipThis product is not suitable for those with sensitive skin. Even though I don't typically have sensitive or delicate skin, I couldn't adapt to it. I recommend starting with the 0.1 product first.

As a beginner, I chose the 0.3% strength. They recommend using it only at night because it's sensitive to heat and light. I'm storing it in the fridge and applying it right after cleansing. The texture is like an ointment, incredibly smooth with excellent absorption. It spreads easily and absorbs quickly! What I love most is that it doesn't contain any pore-clogging ingredients, making it suitable even for acne-prone skin.
ConsWhile it's moisturizing and I'd love to apply it generously all over my face, it's disappointing that we're only supposed to use a rice-grain sized amount twice a week... In my case, I didn't experience any reactions like tingling. In fact, there was no reaction at all, even when I tried using a pea-sized amount or applying it for three days in a row. Even after several days, I didn't notice any peeling or tingling sensations. However, my skin texture has improved tremendously! I'm assuming it's still working even without noticeable reactions or peeling, right? I've heard you need to use it consistently for at least three months to see results, so I'll keep at it!

When you wake up, you'll notice your pores appear smaller, giving you that well-cared-for feeling. Thanks to its retinol content, I highly recommend this to anyone looking to manage their pores effectively.
ConsWhen storing this product, it's important to keep it in the refrigerator. Also, you might experience a slight tingling sensation when you first start using it.

The scent is nearly fragrance-free, and I've been applying it in small, pea-sized amounts.
ConsGiven the ingredients, as someone with super sensitive skin, I occasionally experience a tingling sensation, and sometimes wake up the next morning with redness and irritation!

As it was my first time using a retinol product, I applied it every other day. The absorption is just as good as other moisturizers - it goes on smoothly and feels light. Even those with sensitive noses shouldn't find the scent overwhelming! Although I haven't used it for long, I noticed my enlarged pores have visibly tightened. There's a clear difference in my skin's appearance when I use this retinol cream versus when I don't. It absorbs incredibly fast without any sticky feeling, making it perfect for daily use.
ConsI didn't really have any complaints! If I had to pick something, maybe a slight tingling sensation at first since it was my first time using retinol. That's about it. For those who regularly use retinol, I imagine you could use this without any concerns.
TipI applied the retinol after my serum, then followed up with a light, hydrating cream on top. This method seemed to minimize skin irritation! And always remember to apply sunscreen the next day when going out!

For sensitive skin, retinol itself can be irritating, so use sparingly to avoid overwhelming your skin. Texture: It's reminiscent of pharmacy ointments, but feels like a lightweight, smooth-applying cream. Scent: Neither unpleasant nor particularly appealing - just a neutral cream scent. It's inoffensive, which is fine. Application: This moderately smooth cream spreads easily. It feels comfortable after application, so I used it as readily as my other cosmetics. Review: I hadn't tried retinol before due to concerns, but this was a good opportunity. It was better than expected! Retinol effects aren't immediate - a week's use isn't enough to see results. I felt some irritation, so I'm applying small amounts every other day. It's recommended to allow a 2-week adjustment period, so I'll keep using it consistently. So far, I'm satisfied as I'm gradually adapting without any blemishes or adverse reactions! However, be aware that it can cause dead skin cells to surface the next day, affecting makeup application. Avoid using it the night before important events!
ConsThe initial stinging sensation was quite intense. This may vary depending on skin type and condition, but I was disappointed. Despite its low concentration and smooth application, which led me to believe daily use would be fine, even a tiny amount caused significant stinging on first use. This occurred even without exfoliation, makeup, and after gentle cleansing.
TipDue to retinol's nature, avoid exfoliation or harsh cleansing during use. For sensitive skin, apply a thin layer sparingly. Consider using every other day rather than daily. While an adjustment period is normal, extremely sensitive individuals should start with tiny, dot-like applications and gradually increase as tolerated. It pairs well with moisturizing and regenerating creams.
