Retinol is known for being harsh on skin, but this formula may be the exception
Photo: 1968 Cinema Center Films/CBS Photo Archive One of the best perks of my time working as beauty writer was getting to interview top celebrity dermatologists and sneaking in a question of what I should be using on my regular-person-in-her-30s skin. With all of the night creams, wrinkle creams, eye creams, and under-eye creams, every single dermatologist told me to stick to the basics: sunscreen for daytime and retinol at night. And it wasn’t just the dermatologists saying this.
I spent the next several months with an itching, stinging, red, sensitized, or peely face. Oh, and I still had acne and wrinkles. Cool, cool. Part of the problem was that it usually takes about 12 weeks to see actual results from retinols. By week three, I’d be crying uncle .
I’m usually skeptical about studies like that — funded by a company with an agenda, more likely conducted in an office conference room than a clinical setting — but count me in as test-case number 54. I couldn’t believe it when I made it through the entire 12 weeks. I was even able to eventually use it every night. The best part, though, isn’t what the cream doesn’t do — cause flaking, tightness, redness, or sensitivity.
