skinshares review for Milky Piggy EGF Elastic Retinol Cream

SCENT: Sweet Milk Candy TEXTURE: Gooey Marshmallow Cream PACKAGING: Plastic Jar, 100ml MAIN INGREDIENTS: 69.9% Swiftlet Nest Extract aka Bird’d Nest and Retinol ⠀ FOR LAZY READERS: Fun gooey texture that hydrates & firms my skin. It does helps with early signs of aging and preventing wrinkles but the results are temporary as it eventually stops working. ⠀ I first saw this product from @drdrayzday ‘s Youtube video and according to my research, this cream contains around 0.07% of Retinol which is said by others to be okay for beginners. Enclosed in a cute white & orange jar, the cream resembles a gooey marshmallow/snail cream. ⠀ The scent is so dreamy, like sweet milk candy. When applied, it feels tacky, sticky, & takes a while to be applied well. As a retinol first timer, I followed the sandwich method (in between layers of moisturizers) to avoid dryness & sensitivity. Fortunately, I never felt a stinging sensation or pain when using this. 😌 I started once a week, then eventually twice a week of usage. During the first months, I noticed my skin firming and my skin elasticity improving. It helps at preventing excess sebum & signs of aging like wrinkles. 👍🏻 ⠀ You need 3-6 months for Retinol to work & I’ve been using this for 5 months now! The results are visible but after 3 months, it eventually stopped working, so I switched to a different brand. I still think this is a great retinol product, it did something good to my skin & didn’t disappoint. 😊 ⠀
