Description

Defy the appearance of aging with this little overachiever. A new generation in retinoid serums, this clean formula uses highly potent, petroleum-free Granactive Retinoid, mushrooms, melatonin, and quinoa to tackle fine lines, wrinkles, and elasticity. Use a few drops nightly to wake up to your most beautiful skin.

KEY INGREDIENTS:
Granactive Retinoid: Petroleum-free retinoid known for helping fight signs of aging and found to be less irritating than traditional retinol.
Melatonin: In your body, melatonin reminds your brain it is time to sleep. On your skin, melatonin is a supercharged free-radical scavenger. One of the key ingredients in your fight against aging.
Mushrooms: Promote hydration and help reduce puffiness.
Quinoa: Loaded with antioxidants, which help fight free radicals, and high in lysine, which is an amino acid that helps promote collagen production.

FORMULATED WITHOUT:
Parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, silicones, or sulfates.

PACIFICA PROMISE:
Always 100% vegan & cruelty-free made with compassion for the planet, animals & you.

HOW TO USE:
Apply 1-2 dropper full to clean skin after cleansing. Do not use with other retinoid products. Always start with a patch test before using any new skincare product. Use sunscreen daily and limit sun exposure while using this product.

GOOD FOR: All skin types, especially aging skin.

CARE CAUTION:
While Granactive Retinoid is less irritating than retinol, if irritation occurs, discontinue use. For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. If pregnant or nursing, consult your doctor before use. Use sunscreen daily as retinol can increase sun sensitivity. Store in a cool, dry place.

HOLY GRAIL

This may be Pacifica's best product. I use it almost every night and it makes my skin clear & does not dry out my skin. I also use the eye cream. I've bought it many times and love it

Please never discontinue this!

I decided to try the Wake Up Beautiful Retinoid Serum after having such an amazing experience with the eye cream from this line, and it did not disappoint. My skin is very sensitive, especially because of thyroid-related issues, so I am always cautious with retinoids. This serum is incredibly gentle and does not cause irritation, redness, or dryness for me. The texture is lightweight and absorbs well without feeling greasy or heavy. It layers nicely with my other skincare and does not pill. After using it consistently, my skin looks smoother, calmer, and more even overall. I also noticed that my skin looks healthier and more refreshed when I wake up. One unexpected benefit is how much my skin seems to love the mushroom ingredients in this line. Since using this serum, my skin feels more resilient and balanced, not stressed or overworked like it sometimes does with other retinoid products. This serum has helped me ease back into using a retinoid without fear, and it has quickly become a staple in my nighttime routine. I really hope Pacifica keeps this product around, because it is gentle, effective, and perfect for my sensitive skin.

It wasnt my thing

Not a fan of this, burned my skin when applied. Could be because I have sensitive skin. Not the product for me though.

Love the feel, and no peeling!

I use this twice a week before bed and I love the consistency of the serum. My skin looks less dull and I don't wake up to peeling skin.

Not as good as the cream

I really prefer the cream version as it smells good and lasts much longer. I recently started using it and it is difficult to get much from the bottle with the dropper.

New Favorite!

This is the best retinol serum I've tried! It hasn't irritated or dried out my skin. I apply it before bed and my face is so soft and glowing when I wake up! This is definitely a new favorite in my skin care routine!

Very nice little serum

My face is noticeably smoother when I wake up and wash it in the morning. I’ve only been using this for one week but already see its effects. I’m alternating my eye cream in the morning with this in the evening and it seems to keep my under eyes brighter and firmer.

My Go-to retinol

Pacifica is my go-to Vegan skincare brand and I buy a lot of the products. However, the Wake Up Beautiful line is my favorite for retinol. Most retinol is very drying and I try to layer with moisturizers for balance. I find that to not be the case with this serum. This serum feels great to apply, but I will use it with the other Wake Up Beautiful product line at night and wake up in the morning to moisturized and restful looking skin.

Good 🌟

I like the silky texture. My skin feels great after using it. I haven't had it long enough to tell if it has made significant changes. I use it with the reusable forehead mask when I take the mask off in the morning my skin is tighter and smoother.

Definitely refining lines

I have extremely sensitive skin and not just sensitive I'm allergic to a lot of things and this didn't cause me hives, so I think it's pretty safe for everybody.

So elastic

My skin has always been super dry and this serum helps me wake up without dry and peeling skin. I can smile again without my skin flaking during the winter now!
