The Retinol 0.5 Serum

product review positives
Cosrx The Retinol 0.5 oil ✨️What it is Featuring a high concentration of 0.5% pure retinol, this powerful oil targets skin aging signs such as sagginess, fine lines, and wrinkles. ✨️Star ingredients 0.5% Pure retinol 91%Squalene Super vitamin E (Tocotrienol) ✨️My Experience The box itself is pretty elegant and discreet. This retinol oil is in a large bottle and doesn't really have much of a fragrance. While there is a faint oil or medicinal smell, it is acceptable. This has both positive and negative aspects. Retinol (Vitamin A) and the "super Vit E" designation are antioxidants. Antioxidants, by definition, are unstable. This means they must be packaged in a way that protects them from light and air, or they will lose potency and become useless. The dark bottle is nice, and it says to keep it in the fridge after opening, so that's a plus. However, because it is in a dropper bottle, the contents are constantly exposed to light and air when the dropper is removed. This has a very good formula, so it's not a deal breaker at this price point. Simply transfer it to an airtight pump bottle to preserve its potency and efficacy. Capric/caprylic triglyceride, derived from coconut oil, is also included in the formula. For some people, this ingredient may be comedogenic. If you're taking a retinoid for acne, avoid this product or use it with caution and keep an eye out for breakouts. If you are not prone to acne and are using this for antiaging purposes, you should be fine. Always perform a patch test and proceed slowly. Don't forget to always wear an SPF of at least 30. All in all, I like how simple it is to apply this oil. It is not irritating, and it aids in the prevention of retinoid dryness. Anyway, I was concerned that it would be too greasy, but to my surprise, the oil absorbed into my skin and wasn't as bad as I'd anticipated. There was still oil present, but it was not greasy. I wore it overnight and woke up with soft, hydrated skin that was free of oil and greasiness.
product review negatives
If you are sensitive to fragrance this will be a no good for you.
