Effective, gentle retinol serum at a great value!
This has helped refine the texture of my 55 year old skin and the value is fantastic! It has a liquid feel and takes a very tiny amount to see benefits to your skin. Make sure you use sunscreen when applying this product to your skin or the sun will do more damage as you are trying to treat the aging skin. This retinol has never irritated my sensitive skin or even made my skin red. It is lightweight and can be easily applied using your fingers to massage it in before applying your serums, moisturizer and any facial oils you may need. The only complaint I have is that the opening is too large for the viscosity of this product and it tends to come out way too fast! I don’t squeeze the bottle to dispense because of this fact and I simply turn the bottle upside down and place my finger against the opening as a stopper to allow the tiniest drop to come out and then I apply it section by section to my face. I wish they had a bottle with a dropper for dispensing, however, you just need to be careful dispensing it or a huge amount will come out all at once which wastes the retinol serum. This retinol serum is a high quality skin care product for a great price!

Great product
Really great product. I use to use this every night before bed and my skin looked amazing. However as of recent I have needed to use the sandwich method and apply my moisturizer first and then this product over the top. My skin chemistry has changed over time and I easily dry out and burn (could possibly be a change in the product itself, not sure). So, if you have sensitive skin, I'd still recommend this product, just be careful and apply a layer of moisturizer first and do not use more than 3x a week.

Retinol
Really nice retinol, also helps tighten the skin and clear acne. I try not to use too much as it is sort of harsh with overuse. Other than that it’s an excellent purchase and lasts me a few months! I would buy it again

My Skin Thinks It’s Younger Than Me Now
This stuff means business. I started using it and my skin immediately filed a complaint for being treated too well. Smooth, glowy, and surprisingly gentle—no drama, no peeling apocalypse. If you want your face to quietly age in reverse while you sleep, this little bottle is doing the work.

Effective!
I have very sensitive skin and everything burns me or breaks me out. This is the only retinol serum I can stand. It’s very light, absorbs quickly and yes, the smell is not pleasant but it doesn’t bother me. It’s light moisture, I usually follow with Tatcha’s Water Cream. For the price, I’m very pleased

Excellent rapport qualité prix. Pour moi un des meilleurs serum retinol du marché et à un prix imbattable. Je l'utilise depuis plus d'un an et je pense voir un impact. J'en mets un peu plus sous les yeux pour limiter les poches et depuis que je fais ça, fini les cernes bleues/noises ou l'effet yeux gonflés.

I’ve been using The INKEY List Retinol Serum (30ml) for a while now, and it has genuinely made my skin smoother, softer, and more refined. If you want the benefits of retinol without harsh irritation, this is an excellent choice. ✨ Results & Skin Feel The biggest difference I’ve noticed is how smooth and even my skin feels. Over time, it has helped improve skin texture, brightness, and overall softness, making my face look more polished and healthier. My skin feels less rough, more balanced, and visually more refreshed. 🧬 Gentle Yet Effective Retinol This serum uses a slow-release retinol formula, which means it works gradually to improve fine lines, uneven tone, and early signs of ageing without causing redness or peeling. It’s a great option for both beginners and experienced retinol users who want steady, low-irritation results. 💧 Hydrating & Lightweight Texture The texture is lightweight, silky, and non-greasy, and it absorbs quickly without feeling heavy. It layers well with moisturiser and doesn’t leave the skin sticky. Thanks to squalane and hydrating ingredients, it keeps the skin feeling comfortable instead of dry. 🌿 Skin-Friendly Formula • Fragrance-free • Cruelty-free & vegan • Suitable for sensitive & acne-prone skin • Doesn’t clog pores • No strong smell or burning sensation 🌙 How I Use It I apply it at night, starting a few times per week, followed by a moisturiser. With consistent use, my skin feels smoother, clearer, and more refined. Perfect for building a long-term skincare routine. 📦 Packaging & Value The tube packaging is clean, simple, travel-friendly, and easy to control the amount. Considering the quality, effectiveness, and price, this is fantastic value compared to many high-end retinol products. ✅ Pros: • Makes skin noticeably smoother • Gentle, slow-release retinol • Lightweight & non-greasy • No irritation or strong smell • Great for beginners & long-term use • Affordable but effective ⚠️ Minor Cons: • Results take time (consistent use needed) • Must use SPF in daytime when using retinol ⭐ Final Verdict If you want a retinol serum that improves skin smoothness, texture, and overall appearance without harsh side effects, this is a brilliant choice. Affordable, effective, and skin-friendly — perfect for a healthy, glowing skincare routine.
