I had previously used a stronger retinol and had a severe reaction, so I started using this. I haven't had any reaction so I'm using it with confidence. I'm also expecting good results.
No irritation and easy to use
I've been bothered by the redness and peeling caused by strong retinol, so I've stopped using it, but this is great because you can start with 0.1 and it doesn't cause any irritation, so it's easy to continue using. It's a slightly thick cream, but it spreads easily and is comfortable to use.
It has a relatively light texture that blends well with the skin. The tube has a narrow tip, which makes it easy to use. The concentration is not high, so it doesn't irritate the skin.
A review of the retinol cream released by @frankly.skincare_jp: Retinol 0.1 Cream (medium concentration 0.1%) is recommended for those new to retinol; Retinol 0.3 Cream (high concentration 0.3%) is recommended for those looking to step up their retinol concentration or for serious anti-aging care! [Key Points of FRANKLY Retinol Cream] 1. Formulated with retinol*1 to support healthy skin, 2. Formulated with niacinamide*2 to maintain moisture, and 3. Formulated with moisturizing ingredient ceramide NP*3. This anti-aging care*5 cream is formulated with a gentle*4 skincare formula. This product combines both offensive and defensive care in one product, leading to healthy, fine-textured skin*1, skin-conditioning ingredients, *2 skin-conditioning ingredients, *3 moisturizing ingredients, *4. Skin problems may occur in all individuals. *5 Age-appropriate care: Because retinol's effects are readily apparent, it's recommended to use it for the first time as a break-in. Officially, the recommended usage is to use it only at night, every other day, for 1-2 weeks. Since I'm already using a retinol serum, I'm used to it, so maybe that's why I didn't feel any tingling with the 0.1%! The 0.3% did sting the moment I applied it, so it seems essential to use it gradually, monitoring your skin's condition. Incorporating retinol ingredients increases the firmness of your skin the next morning, so I also recommend saving up for retinol. #supportedbyfrankly #FRANKLY #Frankly #retinolcream
