Granactive Retinoid 2%

This product is a game-changer! Although I was a little reluctant to attempt it at first since retinoids are frequently accused of having adverse effects on the skin (e.g. purging), this is the product that has turned out to be my holy grail. This product is something I added to my nighttime skincare routine as an extra step after toner, hyaluronic acid, and eye cream and before the moisturizer. I saw immediate results from the first couple of days that I was using it and the results continued to improve as the week progressed! One of the most noticeable results was in the texture of my skin and the appearance of my acne scars and fine lines after just one use since I noticed that my skin appeared much plumper and smoother the following morning after my first application. In my opinion, this is one of the products that I would 100% recommend owing to the fact that it is very inexpensive, thus giving you the chance to experiment with it on your skin. Finally, I recommend layering the product in the way I described above, for the most effective results!

Milky lightweight emulsion. Absorbs quickly. Don't be fooled into thinking that this won't pack a punch, it does! I was a little over-enthusiastic when I first used it and the next morning, my skin was noticeably dry in places. Lesson learned and a couple of drops is sufficient. I've used Retin A in the past, but the price point and effectiveness of this product is enough that I wouldn't buy Retin A again

i have been using it for the past 2 months and can totally see a change! i was filled with blackheads and whiteheads mainly on my forehead and was really self-conscious about it. since i've been using this retinol (after a year with the 0.2%) i can totally see a decrease- i took around 6 weeks of using but worth every minute :)
