innisfree Retinol Cica Moisture Recovery Serum: Soothing and Hydrating, Visibly Improve Skin Elasticity and Firmness.

I like innisfree, this is very good priduct!

I’m 36 and I’m starting to see some fine lines on my forehead and neck. I wanted to start incorporating a retinol into my routine, but didn’t necessarily want to go full blast into a high concentration as it can cause your skin to react and peel. With the cica inclusion (my face is prone to redness) and the salicylic acid also in this product, I was interested in trying it out! I had heard it was very gentle and especially great for first time retinol users. It’s been fantastic! It hasn’t caused a negative reaction on my skin and is good for a nightly use (although I use it every other night). I use Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream as my ending moisturizer once this has dried down on my face and it’s such a good combo - I’ve been using it for about two weeks and I definitely see a difference for my fine lines and less breakouts! I only use about one pump for my face and another for my neck. It also helps tone down the patchy redness on my cheeks. I use these guidelines for my own retinol use: - I make sure if I’m going outside I’m using sunscreen (not just relying on makeup sunscreen, ACTUAL sunscreen) - Following that, only use at night! - Make sure you’re looking at the products you’re using already in your routine as retinol may not mix well with some ingredients - Ensure this product is drying down on your skin before finishing with a moisturizer - As with any product, patch test on your skin before incorporating into your routine! I love this brand and very excited to keep this product in rotation! If you want to give retinol a try but aren’t necessarily ready to give a full jump in, I would highly suggest giving this a try.

I’ve tried many retinol serums, but this is by far one of the most gentle yet effective ones I’ve used. As someone with sensitive skin, I was hesitant to incorporate retinol into my routine, but this formula, infused with Cica soothes and calms irritation while delivering real results. After a few weeks of consistent use, I noticed smoother skin texture, reduced redness, and fewer breakouts. It absorbs quickly without feeling greasy, and the lightweight texture layers beautifully under moisturizer. Unlike other retinol products that can be drying, this one keeps my skin hydrated and comfortable. If you’re looking for a beginner-friendly retinol that won’t compromise your skin barrier, I highly recommend giving this a try!

Great quality, results and value for money. Smooth skin, no irritation.

This has been a repeat buy for me in terms of skincare. It seems to soften the surface of my skin and diminishes any discoloration I have. It is gentle and doesn’t cause my face to breakout which is such a plus because I can have reactive skin. This brand in general has wonderful products that I believe to be effective and conveniently priced!
