Joseph F. ★★★★★

The 6.5% blend is no joke—my skin peeled a little the first week, but after a month, the texture around my nose is noticeably smoother. It sinks in fast, no greasy residue, which makes layering moisturizer over it much easier.

Joshua G. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this every other night for three weeks and the 5% retinoid ester blend hasn’t caused the peeling I usually get with other serums. My skin looks smoother in the morning, especially around my jawline, and the liposomal delivery seems to make it sink in fast without any greasy residue.

Scarlett U. ★★★★★

The 6.5% blend sounds intense, but the liposomal delivery really does the heavy lifting—no stinging, just a smooth glow by week three. My texture has evened out noticeably, and it absorbs fast enough that I can follow with moisturizer without pilling.
