Kiehl’s retinol skin renewing daily micro dose - Sérum Facial

I Will Buy This Forever

This is the perfect Retinol for my sensitive skin. I use it almost every night unless I'm going to use an AHA serum, then I skip it. Does not give overnight results, you have to use it regularly. After 2+ years of use, my skin feels smooth and hydrated. I'm almost 40 and no wrinkles yet. Some of that probably has to do with good sleep, good diet, and religiously wearing sunscreen, but I truly believe some of it is this stuff too.

Gold in a bottle!

AMAZING!!! First tried this as a small sample, and I woke up with better skin than I’ve had in months!!

Life changing

I'm new to retinol and the other retinol I tried felt painful to my facial skin even if I used them only twice a week. Then I found this one. I started by applying it twice a week for 2 weeks, then 3 times a week for 2 weeks, then I use it every night. I see a big improvement in my skin. My skin looks softer and more glow which make my makeup looks even better because I like light coverage foundation. My tips: use the sandwich method.

Excellent soin

Je suis un mec qui vient de rejoindre le club de la trentaine et je me suis dit que faut que j'essaye mon premier soin au retinol. Et après avoir lu les avis positifs sur ce soin je me suis laisser tenter et je ne regrette pas! J'ai une peau sensible et il me convient parfaitement, il a une bonne texture et ne colle pas et surtout n'a pas d'odeur chimique comme pour beaucoup de soins dans le marché. Ça va faire 2 semaines que je l'utilise et je suis satisfait ma peau a plus d'éclats et a l'air plus ferme, affiné. A voir sur le long terme

Not worth the price point

Wanted to love this product, but honestly I haven’t seen any improvement after months of using. I’ve used Cheaper retinol that showed better results.

Gentle and effective!

I think what makes this great is that the retinol is encapsulated in peptides, so it makes for a gentle, but very effective treatment. It has greatly diminished my acne scars on the side of my face without the harsh effects of retinol. You will experience some sloughing of the skin, but that is part of the process to reveal even tone underneath. I so happy with my results so far.

A total must have!

I got a trial size as a gift with purchase and LOVED it so much I got the full size. I have dry-combination skin and have found that this product has helped SO much with texture and reviving the look of my skin. With my skin texture it can look very dull and this product has helped so much with that. I think honestly for the price it’s worth it but I am knocking it down a star for the price. It is a more luxury skincare product and I will repurchase it in the future. I got a bottle during Christmas and it has lasted me up until now! I wish I could see how much product is left but having it be in a clear bottle could probably mess up the retinol. I use this every night or so before bed and wake up with baby smooth skin. No irritation which I appreciate because I know some retinols can cause irritation. So far I’ve been lucky! If you’re lucky as well I would say it’s worth it!

there's better out there at this price point

I was in the market for an 'active' to use (i generally rotate thru retinols and acids) and chose this one over others because at the time there was a great sale. I used it for months without any benefit. I wouldn't say it made my skin worse, but I didn't make it all the way through the bottle before I was just kind of over it and switched back to my tried and true products and it wasn't long before my skin was looking better overall. In terms of Retinol - I've gotten better results from Sunday Riley's A+ and Mara face oil.

Good for Sensitive Skin

I've tried Shani Darden's Retinol Reform, The Ordinary's Retinoid formula, and I'm currently using Cerave's Skin Renewing Retinol. Kiehl's was good in the sense that it did not irritate my skin at all and it felt very silky. However , there was no noticeable difference.difference. For tge lrice

Gets the job done!

This is a good product that gets the job done! Easy on the skin. I use it at night with moisturizer. Thumbs up!!

So good 👏🏼

I really like this serum. Before I tried this, I didn’t use any retinol. I saw a YouTube video talking about how to start retinols- first 2 weeks, use twice a week- next 2 weeks use 3x- then mon-fri for 2 weeks- then use everyday. This is supposed to minimize any skin reactions from the retinol. This method worked great for me. I use it everyday now and I’m so impressed with how hydrated and smooth my skin has gotten. Before this I used mainly oils on my skin and my skin was SO dry. Like insanely. Using this serum has fixed that. I can get out of the shower and put nothing on my face and it doesn’t feel dry. It actually feels hydrated with nothing on! This has been a great beginner retinol and I will be purchasing again.

Nice retinol

I have normal to dry skin and have been using this retinol every few days at night to supplement my skincare routine. Two pumps of product is sufficient for ensuring coverage of my face. So far im satisfied with this product. The texture is lightweight and doesn’t have a strong odor. I haven’t experienced any sort of redness or acne which is a plus. I have been using this for two months consistently. Only time will tell if this product is really the best retinol!
