"I am super reactive to most retinols resulting in redness, irritation and excessive peeling. Because of ALASTIN’s patented formulation, it is encapsulated in a solid lipid, which improves the delivery of the retinol. So I get all the benefits of using my retinol without the downtime."

United StatesI really like how this retinol does not irritate my skin but I haven't seen much in the way of results. Admittedly, I don't have many lines or wrinkles since I've always been careful with sun protection. I will keep using this to hopefully keep my 67 year old face looking as youthful as possible.
United StatesI noticed a change in my skin after approximately 2 weeks of the retinol use. There was a lessening of fine lines. I noticed an overall smoothness and softness of the skin and lightening of facial discolorations. I am very pleased with the results!
United StatesLike so many others here, I have tried many retinol products (and prescription retinoids) and experienced too much ongoing irritation to continue any of them. I'm 41 with oily, acne prone skin AND wrinkles. Good times. I was nervous about trying yet another product, but I started with the .25 and have been very happy. I haven't experienced any irritation at all. I had a small breakout during the first week, but now I'm about three weeks in and my skin looks clearer and brighter. It's too early to tell what impact it's having on my fine lines and wrinkles, but I'm glad I'll be able to use it long enough to find out! I'm not in a hurry to increase to the .5 strength, but am encouraged by other reviewers who have used it successfully. So happy to finally be able to incorporate retinol into my routine!
United StatesI love this product!!! My skin looks amazing and a lot brighter!

We recommend you consult with your health care provider on which strength retinol is best for your skin type. Generally, those that have previously included a retinol in their regimen can safely use the 0.5 retinol. Those who are new to retinol should begin using the 0.25 retinol until tolerated nightly then if desired, can switch to the 0.5 retinol.
We suggest you begin using two to three evenings per week and increase gradually until tolerated nightly.
Yes, it is formulated to be used on all skin types (oily, combination, dry). If you have specific skin concerns, please consult with your health care provider.
Renewal Retinols has gone through Comedogenicity testing to determine if the product can clog pores, which it passed - proving it does NOT clog pores.
This product uses an airless pump packaging. This non-pressurized vacuum dispensing system does not contain a dip tube and instead features a mechanical pump to provide a smoother delivery and more precise dosage. The dispenser also helps maintain the product’s integrity by preventing excessive exposure to air and other contaminants. When using your dispenser for the first time, you may need to “prime” it to access your product.
Step 1: Keeping the cap on, turn the bottle upside down and firmly pat (4 or 5 times) into the palm of your hand.
Step 2: Remove the cap and prime the pump by pressing it several times for the product to begin dispensing. This may take 10-15 pumps.
TIP: If the product does not prime successfully, please repeat both steps. Due to the airless nature of our pumps this may take a few tries.
We use state of the art airless packaging, which does not contain dip tubes, but rather a diaphragm that rises to evacuate the product. When you depress the pump, it creates a vacuum effect, drawing the product upwards and will allow for almost all of the product to be dispensed without left over. The double wall packaging we use can seem as though there is less product appropriate to the size of the bottle; however, it not only provides extra protection, but our products are over filled to ensure that the label claim volume is what is actually dispensed.
