Not for my skin

I really like to test new products, new brands... recently I fell for this product- retinol, affordable price for a 20 ml bottle, visually what I like- simple and simple. First try- ouch, it burns the next day! Skin that is tight, itchy, feels dry. Second try a week later, same thing! I'm trying a third one... who knows, maybe my skin needs to get used to it?! Well, no... extreme dryness near the nose, cheeks, but especially around the eyes (even though I avoided the contour!) , appearance of atopic eczema... skin that feels tight, reddish, dry, small white skin on my face... in short, I stopped the product, my face was saved thanks to a La Roche-Posay balm for extremely dry skin, it took a week... it was the only new product I used at the time so for me no doubt, unfortunately a bad experience means that I am not ready to try this brand again...
