This serum is an excellent surprise. Its light texture penetrates quickly, leaving skin soft and moisturized. In just a few days, my complexion is smoother, brighter and my pores have been refined. Unlike classic retinol, it has no irritating effect: perfect for sensitive skin. The scent is pleasant and the natural composition is a real plus. An effective alternative for those who want the benefits of retinol without the side effects. I highly recommend it!

Madara's Retinol Alternative Serum is really perfect for acne-prone skin prone to redness. As I mainly have pimples on my forehead, I noticed a real difference after just three days' use. Personally, I only apply the serum in the evening, after cleansing my skin. A small amount is enough for the whole face. The serum's texture is really pleasant and doesn't leave the skin greasy.

Smells wonderful, feels wonderful. Can't imagine ever using anything else.

Pleasant on the skin, non-irritating. I definitely recommend trying this alternative. I use it in the evenings before a thicker moisturiser.

Very good fragrance and absorbs quickly.

Great product! I really like the consistency and the smell. Ideal alternative to real retinol, highly recommended!

I bought it without expecting anything special, as I usually lurk in cosmetic products. But after this one, the effect is really noticeable. After a week or so of regular use. The skin tone is more even, the wrinkles are reduced, the skin is sort of cleansed, renewed and moisturised, but not greasy. Pores are also not blocked. And most importantly, absolutely no irritation. At least for me. I will definitely buy again.

Light texture, quickly absorbed, skin feels moisturised. When used with one of the moisturising creams, the effect is doubled.

I can only recommend it! Smells great too.
The effect is phenomenal. Takes a while with regular use though.

I bought the travel size to try and love it - the skin feels silky, very pleasant after application. I use it in the valara before the night cream.
