Cult Beauty retinol

I have used serums with a higher dose of retinol, this doesn't do it for me.

Really good for sensitive skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

That's a really good serum! However, the percentage stated is slightly misleading. You see, here they have 1% retistar complex. Which delivers 0.05% of pure retinol. On the other hand, 0.5% of granactive retinoid converts to 0.05% of pure active once in the skin. So the total concentration is not very high. Personally, I enjoy it very much. I have sensitive reactive skin and I do not react on this serum. Once I had a slight side effect, but I just overdid it. If you are rather young and/or have sensitive skin, this is a great choice. In other cases, I think that this serum will be too mild for you.

fantastic product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product is THE best retinol I have ever tried. I had very deep frown lines on my forehead which have almost disappeared since using this. I use it a little bit each night and massage it in really well. Definitely worth the money and better than my more expensive retinol products.

Misleading

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

This definitely isn’t 1% strength. Anyone new to retinol, I would suggest using La Roche-Posay - it’s 0.3% pure retinol and it does what it says on the tin. I won’t be buying this again, didn’t really see any major results.

Meh

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

I honestly don't see that this has made the slightest bit of difference to my skin one way or another. The upside is that at least it didn't irritate it as some products do. Waste of money for me, I'm afraid.

Verry good

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

At first i didn't see any change, but after 3 Times, my face was changing in a good way. It's important to hydrate your face. I use this only 3 times per week, but i want to increase.

Thought I’d check out the hype.. not disappointed in the slightest. My aesthetic surgeon accused me of having work done elsewhere! Glowing. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this.

Deceptive and misleading

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

The product says 1% stable retinol which would obviously make the consumer think it’s 1% retinol. However it actually contains 1% retiSTAR which actually delivers only 0.05% pure retinol. There’s nothing wrong with the product it’s self, it feels nice on the skin, however the fact that the brand is not transparent about the ingredients and percentage/concentration of the retinol has sadly put me off the brand.
