Crystal Retinal 1

product review positives
I have read incredible reviews of this product. The consistency is nice. But I did not see any good changes to my skin using this product.
product review negatives
I would advise you to use this product with caution. It is the lowest concentration of retinaldehyde, suitable for sensitive skin. My skin IS sensitive, indeed, that is why I chose to start with this product. I have been using tretinoin for 9 months and have seen great results - no blemish in sight, rarely an irritation appears, my skin was smooth and even (I am using also BHA, hyaluronic acid, azelaic acic as other active ingredients, but never in the same routine with retinol; everyday SPF application). I have decided to try this product since I have run out of tretinoin. Unfortunately, I have experienced the worst dryness and skin irritation on places I have not applied CrystalRetinal. The skin under my jaw and on my ears was peeling; the same goes to my scalp. It was so irritated that I had to apply topical steroids (under my jaw) to soothe my skin. Also, there were new breakouts every day, some of which were on the surface of the skin, others were painful and deep inside the skin. Yes, I know that it “gets worse before it gets better” and that I had to give it some time but this product did more harm than good. I have been using it for a month, following the instructions and have started on absolutely blemish-free skin due to my regular use of tretinoin... I really wanted to love this product. That was my not-so-pleasant experience with this product. If you have sensitive skin, be cautious and expect dryness, irritation and breakouts.
