TikTok reviewers consistently praise this retinol serum for being gentle yet effective, with multiple users noting it doesn't cause irritation even for sensitive skin while still delivering visible results for wrinkles, acne scars, and skin texture. They love that it combines retinol with soothing ingredients like bakuchiol and ceramides, making it comfortable for daily use. The main complaint is that the thick texture can make it difficult to dispense from the packaging, and reviewers especially recommend it for beginners to retinol and those with sensitive skin.
