Reviews
“Subscribe & Save Because Aging Is Apparently Persistent: Really like this retinol serum. Gentle enough that my sensitive skin tolerates it well, but still makes my skin look smoother and more refreshed over time. I appreciate that it hydrates too instead of making my face feel like dry parchment. Subscribe & Save was necessary because I’m fully committed to aging with effort and good lighting.Read moreRead less”
“Decent, More of a Maintenance Product: This is an okay, no-frills product that works fine. I’ve been using it for about a year and haven’t noticed any major changes. It might be better suited as a maintenance cream rather than something for noticeable results. Easy to use and doesn’t cause irritation, just don’t expect anything dramatic.Read moreRead less”
“Nice: Gentle retinol that actually worksI’ve been using the CeraVe Anti-Aging Retinol Serum and it’s been a great addition to my skincare routine. It’s gentle enough to use regularly but still effective.My skin feels smoother and looks more even, especially with fine lines and texture. I didn’t have much irritation as long as I introduced it slowly.It also has a lightweight texture, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t leave my skin greasy. I like that it includes hydrating…”
“It's Working!: I am 65 years old and have used many retinol products over the years, in various price ranges. I was somewhat skeptical about this serum, but Cera Ve is a good brand so I took a chance. After using this every night for 5 weeks I see an amazing difference in my skin! Appearance of wrinkles is reduced, pore size is less noticeable, skin surface is smooth and not blotchy. My husband even remarked that I was looking good, and that was as I was standing near a big…”
“Visible improvement in skin texture and clarity: I have been integrating this serum into my nightly regimen for a few weeks now, and the results have been consistently impressive without any of the typical irritation I’ve experienced with other retinol treatments. The formulation is exceptionally well-balanced, feeling lightweight yet deeply hydrating, and it has noticeably smoothed out the uneven texture on my forehead. I had a minor inquiry regarding the optimal…”
“Nice, Gentle Product: This is a great way to work retinol into your skincare routine, especially if you have sensitive skin. It is gentle and I have not experienced any irritation with it. I do use it at night and follow it with either CeraVe Night Cream or CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion. The serum is non-greasy and fragrance free and I feel I am left with skin that is well cared for. One thing to note is that this is a very gentle retinol product and may not produce…”
“Face looks brighter 😁: Added this to my skincare routine and it’s playing well with my other products. I am seeing brighter skin. I like that the retinol is encapsulated. I recently learned that retinol degrades fairly quickly after opening products that aren’t encapsulated. It’s non-greasy and leaves my skin feeling moisturized and soft. The pump works fine, so far. The consistency is good. Not too thin but not too thick. Priced comparable to similar products. It’s…”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent: love this cream! It keeps my skin hydrated all day without feeling greasy or heavy. The texture is smooth, absorbs well, and leaves my skin feeling soft and comfortable. It’s gentle, effective, and works great for dry skin. I’ve noticed a big improvement in my skin since I started using it. Great quality and value for the price. I highly recommend it and will definitely buy it again!”Read moreRead less”
