Good Molecules Gentle Retinol Cream, Retinol Night Cream for Face, 1 fl oz | Gentle retinol cream that softens the look of fine lines. Soothing enough for sensitive skin.

I like the effects of retinol but some times it can be to strong. This 1% is great for every ( nite ) it's not to greasy but does smooth skin and help with lines and sunspots...j....

I’ve only used this product twice and have noticed a difference in fine lines, shine and overall improvements in my skin! The product is so gentle, I use it every other night and have no skin irritation.

It goes on so smooth and makes my skin very glossy. I usually have pretty sensitive skin but this hasn’t given me any issue. It’s lightweight but still feels like it’s actually working. This is a great product, especially being so cheap! Def my go to now on!

Scent/formula: The smell is a bit off putting, it definitely has an earthy smell to it which isn't horrible but a bit weird and part of the reason for four stars instead of five. The formula is a normal cream, it doesn't feel especially luxurious, or especially harsh. It just is. Not particularly greasy but I slug my bedtime moisturizer sooo face is greasy anyway 💀 Background info: I have been using it for two weeks, I just turned 30 and noticed some fine lines appearing between my brows. I have dry sensitive skin and am prone to bad hormonal acne breakouts on top of normal acne. Ease of use: The directions are clear and simple. Use at night after your toner and other serums. Use SPF during the day. You just rub it on your face like any other topical cream. I use it every other night. Results/Thoughts: Obviously too early to see results in terms of fine lines and skin plumpness, but, I love that I'm not experiening the massive and painful "purge" effect as badly with this retinol. In the past, retinol has made every pore on my face sorry for existing. It has historically been harsh, drying, and uncomfortable. But this Good Molecules is so much gentler. I'm still getting the purge effects, just at a slower, more manageable pace. The acne coming from the purge isn't painful and world ending (with the exception of a few bad ones), and my face doesn't feel tight, dry, or flaky like with other retinol. Would recommend if you've struggled with retinol in the past being too harsh and been too overwhelmed and upset by the purging phase to continue.

Title: Gentle, lightweight, and a great beginner retinol I’ve been really happy with this retinol cream. One of the first things I noticed was how gentle it is on my skin. I didn’t experience any irritation, redness, or excessive dryness, which can sometimes happen when introducing retinol into a skincare routine. The texture is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave my skin feeling sticky or greasy. It layers well with the rest of my nighttime skincare products and feels very comfortable to wear. I also appreciate that it has little to no fragrance. The scent is very subtle, making it a good option for anyone who prefers lightly scented skincare products. In my opinion, this is an excellent choice for beginners or anyone looking to introduce retinol gradually into their skincare routine. It provides a gentle experience while still fitting easily into a nightly regimen. Overall, I would definitely recommend it if you’re looking for a beginner-friendly retinol cream that’s lightweight, non-greasy, and gentle on sensitive skin.

F-36yo. I love this stuff. Here's my routine; CeraVe moisturizing face wash (the green stuff), the ordinary aha and bha toner (the blood red stuff watered down in a spray bottle, about 6 droppers full to 4oz water, spritzed on and left to dry. No rinsing), Corsx snail mucin serum, Good Molecules peptide serum, good molecules gentle retinal, and Belif aqua bomb Cica cream. And im telling you, I get a rashy acne patch on both sides of my nose/mouth area every summer and this year, after starting this routine, my skin has been so clear! I still get breakouts, but the heal so fast with this stuff! My skin has been brighter too! No sensitive reactions. This retinal has also helped my arms! Ive ad postpartum bumps on my forearms since my baby was 6m and ive been wearing long sleeves all summer because of it. I started using this on my arms and its definitely helping! It heals the bumps and fades the marks of left behind. I think I could go with a stronger concentration of retinal at some point now that I know it helps. Maybe ill actually get to wear sleeveless shirts this summer! Oh, and this little tube has lasted almost a month with using it on my arms too. Already reordered so I dont run out. Oh, one more thing; the fine line on my forehead, the reason I got this in the first place, is slowly fading over the course of 4 weeks. Not totally gone, but as my mom says, anti aging is a marathon, not a sprint. So im happy with the results and will keep using it to see what happens!

The retinol works, the only issue I have is with the packaging which after almost finishing the product, the metal is hard to bend in order to get everything out and it caused an opening where the product could spill out. Anyways, besides that, I found that it has helped to brighten my skin from hyperpigmentation and I even use it under my eyes and it has been very gentle (as long as you use a hydrating moisturizer) to prevent redness.

I love the formula and how it's fragrance free 🤌. It's non greasy, absorbs well and layers well. I always make sure to run my regimen through A.I. or Google to make sure my products don't interact with each other. So that's a tip I offer you lol. Game changer. Anyway, I'm rambling. It's consistency is of a light moisturizer. Not too heavy and since it absorbs easily, it feels light. Now... The reason it gets 4 stars... PACKAGING! The tube specifically is a what I'm assuming is aluminum or some other soft silver metal. It wrinkles up and is just horrible. Wrinkling is the only way I can describe it. I'll try and get a good pic of what I mean. A plastic tube would have sufficed. Why Good Molecules chose this packaging is beyond me. That's my only qualm with this product and is why I probably will not repurchase. It actually kind of kinked up and folded weirdly into the wrinkles that some started to come out of the sides where it is dented and deformed. It is really affordable, but I do believe there are better options considering the packaging. I do love the rest of the Good Molecules products I've tried. Especially their overnight exfoliating treatment. Anyway, that's all, folks!

It made my skin shade and dry

Really lovely gentle retinol. I bought this in search of a low level retinol for sensitive skin as I found that of those were too harsh. It has definitely improved my skin texture and it makes my skin feel moisturised without leaving a greasy cast. It absorbs well on top of a serum as part of nighttime routine.

Très agréable ! Fluide, sens bon et elle fait ce qu’on lui demande, on voit les résultats assez rapidement.

Good
