My fave night time skin product
I LOVE this stuff! I NEVER post reviews so please take my rec and buy the cream!Pros: AMAZING skin texture, it’s helping out my hyperpigmentation and melasma, and keeping breakouts down. When used right, super comfortable to sleep in. I wake up with the plumpest, glowing skin and after a wash and sunscreen, I’m ready for the day! I have sensitive skin and this product does not irritate my skin if used correctly (see tips).Cons: It doesn’t smell that great but not at all bad. It smells like how Vaseline smells but different. It’s also thick but don’t be tempted to use more (see tips).Tips/Advice:1. It WILL itch if you use a lot. Made that mistake one night and washed it off my face within 5 minutes. PEA SIZED AMOUNT or LESS, please heed my warning! It will spread out just fine with the warmth of your face but again, less is more with this product (and will stretch your dollars farther)!2. Don’t use it on a wet face as water, water-based products, and liquid products will make it itch/sting/tingle (this is my experience at least). I use it just before I’m ready to go to bed (it stays on my nightstand) and I apply a little bit before I go to sleep. This is so any products I use at night have time to dry down on my face. It’s my last step in my night time routine. Make sure you wash it off in the morning and USE SUNSCREEN!3. Build up to using it more often. I can comfortably now use it every other night but it took me a whole month to get to a point where I wasn’t worried about any reactions. (I only had one reaction tho and that was my own fault.) With any new skincare product, you SHOULD let your skin acclimate to the ingredients and formulas. This product is definitely controversial in the reviews but don’t let it scare you. Just take the precaution and build up your tolerance for it before wearing it every single night off the bat. It’s really concentrated so again, take your time and only use a pea-sized amount or less. I’m talking a small pea too, or like the size of a peppercorn!Hope this is helpful. I will update with a “before and after” after more time using. I’ve been using it for a month and have already noticed phenomenal difference in my skin. Give it time, build up to using it more often, and wear your sunscreen. I REPEAT, WEAR YOUR SUNSCREEN.

Learning curve to this cream. Worth every penny!
This works great!! Just give it a month. A few things you should know about this before trying and quitting using it. You have to use this on a completely dry face. It can sting otherwise. I wash, moisturize, then get ready for bed and about 5 min later put it on. I will be honest, it’s sticky like Vaseline and the smell is slightly off putting. Start slow. At first use it once a week for a few weeks, then two for a few more, then work your way up to more. No more than once every 2/3 days. I have decently sensitive skin and doing it that way caused no pain or tingles. I noticed a small change after one use, but after a few months I feel I’m aging backwards. I’m 47 and have been starting to notice old face skin things, but this has made me look and feel like I’m aging backwards. My skin has turned soooo soft and it’s only been 2 months! It’s expensive now but it lasts for months, so really it’s only about $10/month to make such a difference. We spend that much on a coffee or a cocktail and they do nothing for us! I’m not one who freaks out or does much for anti aging but decided to try this. It’s effective and way cheaper than Botox or surgery. Not that i would ever consider those. Just eat good for you foods, get outside, exercise a bit, smile some, and use this cream! You’ll be young “forever”!

This stuff is great!
This is effective and reasonably priced. Started getting ingrown hair in a spot on my chin. After using several more expensive products, I tried this one. Not only have the hairs stop growing inward but the dark spots they caused are also gone.I’ll keep this product in my skincare regiment as long as it keeps working.

Greasy texture a major turn off- but big enough to use on neck and chest
i don’t know why this cream is like, greasy. i can’t use it alone or it made my skin itch so i sandwiched with a moisturizer- which helps a lot with any vitamin a- and it made the whole stuff turn weirdly slick. it’s great bang for your buck if you’re very sensitive to tret or retinols/oids, but i couldn’t stand that it comes in an oily, sticky goo. bought based off tt videos. i am going back to tret, HOWEVER, since this is such a big tube, i’m using it on my body and spots it’s simply not affordable to slather tret over- neck, decolletage, chest!

First-Time Retinol User and Already Impressed
This is my very first time trying retinol, so I was both curious and a little nervous. I applied A313 last night and was surprised by how gentle it felt right from the start. The texture is smooth and balm-like, with absolutely no smell, and it spread evenly without leaving my skin feeling greasy. Best of all, there was no tingling, burning, or irritation, which I honestly expected since so many people talk about the “retinol purge.” Instead, it felt comfortable and soothing on my skin.When I woke up this morning, I was amazed at how plump and refreshed my skin looked after just one use. My complexion felt soft, hydrated, and almost like I had a full night’s sleep, even though I didn’t. For a first-time retinol user, this has been such a positive experience—I can already see why people rave about it. I’m excited to keep using it consistently and see how my skin improves over time.

Thick but in the best way
She is super thick but surprisingly not greasy at all! I’ve never tried another product quite like this. It adresses fine lines and wrinkles and also somehow zaps some pimples? Like it’s magic. Just be aware this stuff is super thick so don’t plan on wearing it in the day with foundation over it.

Amazing stuff and everyone should have this on their skin routine. I use every other day and my skin is the best it’s ever been – advice; applied to wet moisturised skin, cos it tingles!

I have been using the cream for about 3 weeks and had never used a retinoid before. I wanted to give it a try because I’d heard very good things about it and it contain retinyl esters and not retinol, so I figured that it could be suitable for beginners too. I started by using a a pea-sized amount and buffered by using a moisturiser first, followed by the cream. I broke out in the first two weeks which I believe was a “retinol purge”. I only had some very minor irritation. I used it twice a week in the first couple of weeks and have now increased to three times. It’s too early to say anything about results but the break outs are gone now and my skin has a good complexion the morning after applying the cream. I mainly wanted to leave a review on how to start. So if you’re not super sensitive and start carefully by buffering first, you can use this cream even if you’ve never used a retinol before.

I am 58 years old. I have been applying A313 four out of seven nights a week-the nights before I go to work. I do not have any issues with excessive stinging or redness; so I am not mixing it with my face cream. It feels a bit like petroleum jelly when it first goes on; hence the use throughout the night. When you wake up in the morning, your skin is so smooth and soft. And I saw results the very first day I had used it. The lines at the corners of my eyes, the bags under my eyes and the loose skin on my neck where all much less noticeable. I am loving how youthful it is making me look and feel. I only wish it would have a more permanent effect. I lasts about 8-12 hours for me. But perhaps after I use it for several months, I might see longer-term changes.

It works perfectly fine like Retin A but not that strong like Retin A. I prefer to use Retin A though but for something without prescriptions. For sensitive skins better try a small bit to do allergies test first. The first week I used the cream direct on my skins and it peeled (I want it that way), then I started to use moisturiser between layer which is work fine, but less peeling. My skins turned smooth and the fine lines are less visible. During the day you need to apply the sunscreens. It’s worth the money.

To be honest, since I purchased this i find myself rarely reaching for it. It’s definitely heavy on the skin and can cause burning sensation at times. I was influenced by tiktok to try it, i’m not sure if it affected my acne scars or not as I don’t use it than often because it makes my skin very sticky and tacky. I have acne prone sensitive skin for reference, maybe it will work on other skin types.
