Amazing Serum for Hyperpigmentation
I had a lot of hyperpigmentation on my face from popping pimples in high school, and I've been using this retinoid serum since 2022. It's faded *so much* of my hyperpigmentation, and has made my skin a lot smoother. 10/10

Love This!
I love putting in this youth boosting retinol before bed every night. The texture is velvety soft, and it feels so good going on! Absorbs nicely, and my skin looks so refreshed when I wake up in the morning. I’ve been using it for just over 4 weeks and can’t say I’ve seen a substantial improvement in fine lines, but wouldn’t say there’s been no improvement, either. I will keep using this and will definitely repurchase.

It's the best
Ive used the same moisturiser for many years. Was recommended to try elf products by a friend. It had been recommended to her from a make up artist. And OMG my skin with this product plus a few others is absolutely amazing. Brightened, firmer, softer and just looks absolutely amazing. Could do with a big bath full to put my whole body in.

Love love love!
2 weeks in & my sensitive, combination skin is loving this serum. My skin feels smoother, my pores are smaller, & my fine lines are subtly less noticeable. So gentle on my sensitive skin - I am really great about my SPF every day - I really enjoy this retinoid serum.

I like to use this at night to help remove dead skin cells, in addition, to reducing my mouth wrinkles! Doesn’t irritate my skin which is a positive! Would recommend this product!

My favorite retinol
This is my favorite retinol I’ve found so far. I have very sensitive skin, and this does not irritate it at all. For the price, it has a pretty high amount of retinol which I love

HOLY MOLY
I didn’t think it was going to work. I received a free sample size. TWO APPLICATIONS AND WOW!! I just ordered the full size, this stuff is amazing (I’m in my mid-40’s and am used to using retinol, this is a superior product to the other, more expensive ones I have already tried, wish I’d had this years ago)

Smoother skin
My skin is so much smoother because of this. If I stop, the texture comes back. I noticed my smile lines are less visible with makeup on!

Wow!
Great especially for the price. It can be difficult to find a good retinol at an affordable price. This one is very gentle and doesn’t break the bank when you have to repurchase it every couple months or so! I also like the color of it because it lets me know if the product is rubbed in all the way or if I missed any spots. Underrated from ELF skin line!

Lightweight and easy to wear
I bought this product a few weeks ago so I don't think I have used it enough to see major results. However, it's extremely lightweight and doesn't have a strong smell so it's great to wear. It does have a shocking orange colour but it doesn't show up on your skin so that isn't an issue. It hasn't broken me out or affected my skin negatively, so far, so I consider that a win!

Great product at a reasonable price!
I have been using it every Eve for the last 3 months and it leaves my skin soft and smooth. I have also noticed improved radiance and clarity. No irritation or dryness as with other retinols.
