## Description

An anti-aging wonder, this retinol brightening face treatment from PCA SKIN helps repair an even, bright, and radiant complexion by working to increase collagen production. Retinols improve overall skin appearance over time, helping to improve skin texture and fade dark spots and age spots. Our professional-quality Intensive Brightening Treatment is especially beneficial for normal skin types and those with discolorations. Formulated with pure retinol, resveratrol, and niacinamide, which is a potent antioxidant that provides free radical defense, this smoothing serum promotes a healthy glow while improving discoloration. Cellular turnover increases with retinol use, so it's important to apply sunscreen lotion during the day as a part of your complete skincare regimen. All PCA SKIN products are free of potential irritants like synthetic dyes and fragrances and are paraben free. We do not perform or condone animal testing. PCA SKIN is a trusted innovator in the development of highly effective professional treatments and daily care products. Our vision is to improve people's lives by providing results-oriented skin care solutions that are backed by science for the health of your unique skin.

Review: This is the real deal - I’ve always both this product through PCA website but I ran out and needed some asap. So I decided to order through desertcart knowing it could be a risk. Some reviews are saying it’s fake because it’s oily, this is COMPLETELY normal for this product. You have to shake it A LOT and move the product around in the tube for it to mix. This is the real PCA retinol
Review: Noticeable Difference Without Irritation if Used Correctly - I have very sensitive skin and this product does not irritate it at all. It works really well and i can see a deffinite difference in the texture and pigmentation within a day of use. I do peel some from it obviously, but that should be expected and its not too bad. Usually use it at the beginning of the week so I'll cease peeling by the end of the week. You don't have to use much, so it lasts a long time. honestly, if you put on too much of this and then complain about irritation and value, I think you're simply using it wrong, but of course everyone's skin is different and there's no cure all for everyone. It works well for me if used correctly.

### ⭐ USED,EMPTY, GROSS
*by I***K on November 28, 2021*

I’m an esthetician currently not working due to family illness thus I don’t have access to certain PCA products currently. I took a chance and ordered this online for $120 - it arrived used and half empty. Not to mention the product was a darkish brown instead of light like the normal ingredients. I was disgusted and appalled and will no longer be ordering medical grade skin care online no matter what! ..... I would give this zero stars if I could- not to mention when I opened the product the brown ingredients were runny and you could definitely tell was verrrry old - that or some dude put his pre meditated children into a tube- cuz that’s what it looked like! Stay safe and buy local when it comes to medical grade skincare! I’ve never given a review before but this was a must ! I am literally disgusted right now!
