Description
What It Is: Gentle enough for sensitive skin and first-time retinol users, this serum delivers the tone and texture-reforming benefits of retinol without the "uglies": redness, dryness, or peeling.
For: Fine lines + Firmness
What It Solves: This serum uses a gentler form of retinol, so you won't overdo it—even on sensitive skin. Our gel-cream formula contains encapsulated retinol, which penetrates the top layers of the skin's surface to avoid irritation. Natural retinol alternatives arophira and bakuchiol also add to this gentle yet effective nightly treatment.
How to use: Smooth 2 pumps into clean, damp skin. Let it sink in for one minute before your next skincare step. Apply on face and neck (avoiding eye area) every PM after cleansing. Use alone or between lighter serums and moisturizer.
Good to know: Retinol is one of the most dermatologist-recommended ingredients. In encapsulated form, it doesn’t sit on the skin’s surface, avoiding the irritation other forms of retinol are known for.

Great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m a 70 year old and discovered Versed products a few months ago. Someone told me today that my skin glowed.

The best retinol I've ever used
This is the best retinol I've ever used! I have sensitive skin so I was worried I wouldn't' be able to use this without irritation. I was wrong! I use it 4xweek and wake up in the morning with glowing skin. It's amazing!

First time user
I tried the gentle retinol serum for the first time last night. I woke up today feeling a tightness in my face. I couldn’t imagine what it was, then I remembered. It was the retinol serum. I used 2 pumps. I cannot believe that after one use I felt this much of a difference in my face. I absolutely love this product and will definitely continue using it!!!!

Day 2!
I purchased this product two days ago and I might be crazy but I promise I noticed an immediate difference in my skins texture and brightness within 20 minutes. I’m one who is very analytical of facial wrinkles and marks and I noticed such a difference after using it. My skin feels tighter, my wrinkles are less prevalent, my skin feels very clean, and the redness in my face decreased. Will definitely be purchasing the whole line...
