Retinaldehyde Cream Serum 0.10%, Advanced Anti-Aging & Smoothing Potent Face & Skin Care, 1.7 oz

I love Naturium products! Most of what I use on my body is from this brand. For moisturizers and serums, I tend to focus on K-beauty since there are a lot of great and affordable options, but a high-quality retinal product that doesn't make me red is something I struggle to find, so this one is my go-to. This is a great retinal product for people who want results without excessive irritation. The texture is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and layers well under moisturizer. I’ve found it gentler than many retinoid products while still feeling effective. No strong smell, no pilling, and no immediate redness or peeling with regular use.

I am an old school connoisseur of Retinoids, been using them for over 15 yrs. I have tried all forms and strengths from countless different companies claiming to be "the next big breakthrough in anti-aging technology", promising to make all my wrinkles and fine lines vanish and I'll live happily ever after. Guess what?, that's never gonna happen, no matter what you use, nothing will ever erase it all and make us look 20 again, ladies. I'm sorry. But, there is hope in helping soften those visible signs of aging and helping us prevent further damage to our skin, maybe even stopping the clock for just a bit. I came across Naturium and started doing some research, I was very impressed. Made w fermented oligopeptide, active noisome complex and peridot mineral extract it's a gel-serum emulsion that helps reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles, visually smooths uneven tone and texture and helps brighten and firm the look of skin. This next gen potent Retinaldehyde cream is 0.15% and directly converts to Retinoic acid in just one step, instead of two steps w Retinol. Lightweight and doesn't leave your skin feeling dry. I cannot overstate how pleased I am w the results in just a little over a wk, I can see a difference in my laugh lines. Most Retinoid serums and creams come in 1 oz bottles, giving us very little bang for our buck, but this gem gives us a whooping 1.7 oz of that yellow goodness that, all of us over 30 yrs of age, crave. Such a great buy and well worth every single penny, a little does a long way, one or two pumps will do your entire face and neck. This serum is a must have in your nightly routine. Cruelty free, Paraben free, Vegan, Gluten free, Fragrance free and Dermatologist tested makes this a quality product that you will love.

I’m 42 years old, I’ve been using this retinal for a year now, and it has become a staple in my skincare routine. I started with the 0.10% and after consistent use, I recently transitioned to the 0.15% about a month ago. The upgrade was seamless, no irritation or dryness at all. It doesn’t feel sticky, absorbs well and doesn’t have any smell at all. What I love most is the visible improvement in my skin: My wrinkles and fine lines look noticeably smoother. My skin texture has improved and feels much more refined. My pores look minimized, giving me an overall healthier and more even complexion. It’s gentle yet effective, which is rare for a retinoid. I use it in the evenings, and during the day I always pair it with an SPF 50+ sunscreen for protection. 🌟 I highly recommend this serum for anyone looking to step into retinal without the harsh side effects. It’s effective, well-formulated, and truly delivers results. See my results and judge for yourself. Worth the money!

Unfortunately, my skin can not handle this strength :( The ingredient profile is beautiful, non greasy, absorbs quickly, and does give temporary hydration. I would not use this unless you have worked your way up retinol/reti-a/tret products in the past. For my dry-sensitive skin I apply several layers of essense-serum-moisturizer, aquaphor around my eyes let it sit for 10 min than go in with 2 pumps of this and sadly every morning I wake up with red raw dry skin :( I can not put makeup on the next day (I need color corrector under my eyes or I look sleep deprived) and it takes 3 days of thick creams to calm my skin down. The product itself is very good, I just don't see myself ever being able to use it, at least not anytime soon.

This cream feels so nice on my skin. No sensitivity issues so far. I use a few times a week and no problems. Have not used long enough to tell a difference but we'll see.

I have mature skin, rosacea, and have not used Retinal products in years. I bought this based on the online reviews and I can say that this product is gentle and works. I have only been using it twice a week for 3 weeks. My skin has adapted to it and I have not had any flaking, redness, or extreme sensitivity. I purposely decided to start slow and allow the .05% cream to work. The product is bright yellow, but blends nicely into my skin at night. I did find that I needed to use a sunscreen right away as my skin became red if I was in the sun for a short time. I plan on using this for a couple months, and then moving up to the .01% cream. The only complaint is the opening at the top of the tube. It is quite wide and I feel that the product comes out in a big clump.

This may have worked well, but the pump stopped working within a few weeks. When I opened the container to find out why, I saw that the straw that delivers the product to the pump had separated from the pump, so no product was dispensed. No idea how to get that straw out of a tube of liquid.

I love this brand! I'm on their retinol serum, have been using retinol for about a year now. I've been workin my way up and needed something stronger, so got the 5% So glad I did. It's not drying at all. There is no smell, the serum is hydrating and easy to spread. You have to use a hydrating serum after bc you'll get more hydration along with your moisturizer. I use a ceramide serum the cocokind one or my purito unscented centella serum or my panthenol one by some by mi- but I used my niacinamide serum with it one night and had the most glowing skin the next day! I was so hydrated and plumped. It comes in 1.7oz nice pump bottle. Which for the price is a steal for retinalhyde. I started using it 3x a week and on the nights I don't , I use their retinol serum and/or their glycolic serum, which is another amazing product for the price and the amount you get! Once I'm done with the 5 percent I'll get the 10 percent. But I see people complaining about drying and the retinol uglies. Unfortunately people will go through that even when they use it right, but that's what it does. It burns sometimes too. You have to keep using it maybe use it less or do the sandwich method. But it will eventually go away. I was lucky I only got red and a little burning sensation when I first started. Just use a really hydrating serum and moisturizer! It'll be worth it! This brand is amazing. We need more brands like this. With good products and ingredients and at an affordable price. And that actually do what they say the product will do. I trust this brand which says alot for me! Some of these brands overprice their products. I can see an active like retinol being more money than a HA serum or ceramide serum but people charging over 50 bucks for a hydrating serum is ridiculous and even then the product is not good. And then even their actives are 80 or 100 bucks, it's sometimes ridiculous 🙄 especially when the product isn't great and doesn't do what it says it will- I can go on but I'll digress. I've tried many skincare products and companies and you don't need to spend a lot to see results. I love a good serum and moisturizer and do splurge every now and then but now I do it wisely and buy from companies that are worthy and just wait for a good sale on here😉 my Italian mother taught me a few things! Lol. Anyways - again I only write product reviews if it's worth the money and a great product. I've not been using this long enough to say if it worked on certain issues have but so far it's amazing and if it's anything like their serum and glycolic acid then I'm sure it'll be worth it. ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
