I get a lot of messages from people saying that they want to use retinol but they find it to be so irritating. The thing to remember is that there are so many formulas and options out there and even oils for dry skin. I find many drugstore retinoids to be good beginner formulas – they’re made to suit masses of people so they’re not as irritating.
Two favorites from Neutrogena: the Rapid Wrinkle Repair Moisturizer and the Rapid Wrinkle Repair eye cream. Both are light but creamy with a dose of retinol and my skin has been soaking them up.
I use a stronger retinol a couple of times a week, and I use this retinol on off nights.
The eye cream is a favourite and it has a bit of glow in it too. This is good because it makes your eye area look instantly brighter. You can get it online for $24.49. The moisturizer is also available online for $24.49.
