[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who prioritizes ingredients, I’m impressed by the Micro-Dose Anti-Aging Retinol Serum. The micro-dosing technology is a game changer—it delivers pure retinol without the typical redness or peeling. My oily skin absorbs the lightweight texture almost instantly, and I’ve noticed my pores looking much more refined. It’s a solid addition to a "Skin Cycling" routine.

Miss
I love Kiehl’s, but this is a miss. I used an entire bottle of this after thinking it would be a better retinol than a previous one I was using. My fine lines got worse and I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong. Finished the bottle and wanted to finish up another retina product I had. Two days of a different product and my fine lines have disappeared again.

Did not work for me
No visible difference after going through an entire bottle. Very disappointing especially given the price. I used it consistently and faithfully, but the freaking fine lines on my forehead are still here. Maybe I need something stronger? But my fine lines weren't *that* bad so it should've been able to handle them.

Hi disappointedcamel87 and thank you for your feedback. We appreciate your consistency with the Micro-Dose Retinol Serum, but we are sorry it didn't deliver the results you expected for your forehead lines. This specific formula uses "micro-dosing" technology designed for a "slow and steady" approach. While it is excellent for minimizing irritation and strengthening the skin barrier, deeper expression lines on the forehead can sometimes require a more potent concentration of active ingredients to show visible change. Since your skin has successfully tolerated an entire bottle of our Micro-Dose formula, you may be ready to "level up." We recommend our Fast Release Wrinkle-Reducing Night Serum. Our most advanced retinol treatment, specifically designed to penetrate deeper and target stubborn lines faster. We want you to love your results. Please reach out to our our Consumer Care team, Mon - Sun 10:00AM - 7:00PM EST at 1-800-543-4572, to discuss a return for a stronger formula that better suits your skin goals!

Pricey for active ingredient percent/ oz
This product does not go a long way. feels like I'm using a quarter+ amount to cover face. That's after using a serum & moisturizer before application.The price is not worth triple the money compared to a blend just because it's a pure retinol, it's still a very VERY small active amount.

Hi Izza! Thank you for reaching out. We’re sorry to hear that you feel you’re going through your retinol faster than expected! Because this is a Pure Retinol formula, it’s a total 'powerhouse'—which means you actually only need a tiny, pea-sized amount for your whole face! If you’re using a quarter-sized amount, you’re likely using much more than your skin needs to see those great results. Try using less product on dry skin first, then following up with your favorite moisturizer to lock it all in. We’d love to help you refine your application technique so your bottle lasts much longer! Please give us a call at 1-800-543-4572 Mon - Sun 10am-7pm EST so we can chat more about your routine.

love this item
I had been looking for a product with retinol in it and this was has not disappointed. My only caution is a little goes a long way. Or at least for my sensitive skin if I do more than a dollop it seems to irritate. But well worth the result.

Package design not good
I love the product but the packaging can be approved. There is no way to tell how much product is left in the bottle. I took it on a trip and ran out. You can’t take the too odd to get inside the bottle. Had I known there was so little left I would have brought another bottle.

Amazing retinol.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Micro-Dose Anti-Aging Retinol Serum works really well. I love the packaging, which is a vacuum-sealed bag with a glass bottle; it feels heavy and luxurious, which gives me peace of mind. Two pumps are just enough for my face, and it’s really helping with my acne marks and tiny lines. It does take a bit longer to see results due to the lower concentration—I heard it’s 0.1% retinol, compared to 0.2% in other brands. I also don’t love that Kiehl’s didn’t list the concentration; I had to hunt for it. On the bright side, it makes it more usable and beginner-friendly. I started using it four days a week, and it worked well and never caused dryness or problems. Definitely the best retinol I’ve tried!
