The Retinol Serum - Gesichtsserum mit Retinol

So far so good

Nice modern packaging, bottle sleek in design. I received this product extremely late so I can’t give true feedback on the results. I do think it smells good and isn’t heavy.

Great so far!

I am an experienced user of retinol, so this is my experience with the serum and as retinol is a product that takes getting used to my review on my skins experience should only be taken into consideration for experienced users of retinol as I am unsure of the percentage of this serum, though it is stated it's a gentle formula- this i cannot speak on and I am unsure if a newer retinol user would experience a purging period. Augustinus Bader uses their own patented retinol technology for this serum which is referred to as TRC8®, Trigger Factor Complex (TFC™) which is a mix of multiple different peptides, amino acids and vitamins which claim to help with hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, free radical damage to the skin and stretch marks. I have been using this retinol serum for a couple weeks now and haven't noticed significant changes in my skin, the photos which show the most benefits from their website shows testing periods of 12 weeks which is more than triple the amount of time I have been using this retinol. I will say that my hormonal acne hasn't been flaring up as much when my time of the month comes which was nice as my retinol I use prior to trying this would keep my complexion mostly clear, but I would still get breakouts in my chin area. There was no purging or irritation phase of using this, and unsure if it's because this is a gentle formula, or if it is because I am an experienced retinol user. If I had more time to review this product, I would be able to touch base more on the effects of this retinol. Can I say it's worth it? I am unsure. It is a nice product however and did make a difference in my blemishes, time will tell for fine links around my eyes.

Nice retinol serum

I feel my skin a little softer and I have noticed great results. I think I will need more time to test it but so far so good. I loved the packaging it feels luxurious. And I don’t mind the scent. I don’t love it but I don’t hate it. Normally my skin reacts so certain types of retinol. But not this one.

I liked this product! I've been wanting to try a retinol and so this was great to receive. The package was super nice and easy to display for a reminder to use it. I don't feel I've had enough time to really see the effects tho quite yet. But I like it

Not my favorite

I have been using this retinol at night in my skin routine, because I felt a slight sensation of warmth but nothing serious. I really think that I haven't been able to notice any big changes since using it, the most noticeable thing is the decrease in the appearance of my pores.

Great product

Overall I’m happy, with this product. Packaging is well design and dispenser works without any issues. Serum absorbs fast and feel very hydrating. I can see small improvements in fine lines.

Not sure of the effects

As a skincare lover, I was super thrilled to receive Augustine’s Bader Retinal Serum. The packaging is luxe, and the scent is inoffensive. However, in the few weeks I’ve been using the serum, I haven’t noticed any difference in the appearance of my skin. Maybe more time is necessary? I have no problem spending $$$$ on products that work, but I’m not sure this is worth the cost given the lack of results. Perhaps others will fare better.

It is a bit too soon to see significant results, but I am enjoying this serum and seeing some fine lines lessen ever so slightly. It isn't too thin, or too thick, and absorbs very quickly into the skin. I love the aluminum packaging, as it can be recycled.

Very Good Product!

Very good quality product. Light, non greasy, non comodogenic, I have very sensitive skin and it did not irritate or made me have any reaction. Still need to have more time to actually say it makes a drastic change on my skin but overall as of now, I like it. Thanks to influenster for letting me have this to test out.

It’s nice, but not worth the price tag

I’d say overall it is a good product. Does it work significantly better than a more affordable option? No, not really. It’s smooth and makes your skin feel soft, especially the next day. It burns a bit if your skin is super dry like mine in the cold weather. The smell is tolerable.

Gentle yet effective

I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I have used retinol in the past but there’s something that sets this serum apart. It’s very gentle on the skin and non drying in a way that other serums haven’t been. Especially in NYC cold, my skin gets super dry. But my skin has been radiant and smooth since I’ve been using this. I don’t notice any scent in this, which I also like.

Great product with a bad smell

I do like this product. It’s got a cute packaging, texture feels good, and my skin feels super soft with it. However, I can’t stand the smell. Thats the one thing that puts me off from it.
