AHC Youth Focus Skin Toner with Pro Retinal for 11x faster conversion than Retinol to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for hydrated youthful skin with Korean skincare 130 ml

It is one of my favorite, I love korean products. One of my night time secrets.

Thus stuff is amazing. I've never had such clear skin, and it's got rid of the fine lines from my nose to my mouth. Stuck with it, you may break out a little at first. One thing that is also super important is to use the majority of 1 pump on your face and the last little bit, mix with your usual moisturiser and then apply sparingly to your eyelids. Do this for a week, then you can use it neat super sparingly above the lids. This is because Retinaldehyde can make your eyelids puff up otherwise! Mine did the first night, the next day they were really swollen. This is a natural reaction if you don't slowly break in your skin in that area. Retinaldehyde is AMAZING for anti-aging and evening skin tone, so it's definitely worth it! Much more effective than Retinol.

I can't use traditional retinol products even at the lowest concentrations. This product is the only one I can use overnight without any irritation, redness or sensitivity. They results are good too even though I only use the toner and not the whole regimen.

Is it a toner, is it a moisturiser, I'm still confused, even after a month of use. Historically toner was used more as a cleaner and I would apply moisturiser afterwards. More modern formulas have reversed this, allowing the toner to still reduce pore size, which tightens the skin, and moisturise too. Still, I found it unusual not to have to apply a toner without cotton pads or balls. Splashing the toner in to my palms or closed fingers with an open hand, seemed the way to go, since pouring on singular fingertips wasn't helpful - the toner is very watery (normal for toner). This did mean that applying it evenly is hit and miss. Application aside, the toner itself did leave my skin soft - though not as well as a nourishing cream. Reduction of fine lines was very minimal though. For a retinol product I would expect some skin effects (drying) as it worked it's science on the top layer of skin (as I had not been using a retinol product just prior to this one). No such effects. Perhaps I need to apply more - there's plenty in the bottle. If I do see any difference with a new approach, I'll update this review. For now though, I found this to be rather average, though good value for the size considering it contains retinol.

I wanted to like this as I've heard about the benuof retinal. However, I can't say I noticed any difference in my skin in terms of improving fine lines or pore size. I will say that the cream absorbs quickly and makes the skin feel soft but based on the lack of results, I wouldn't repurchase.

Used for only a few weeks noticed big difference in my skin
