Great retinol product!
Lovely product. It took a while to get used to it, and at first my skin was more reactive than usual, but now after a while I can use it 5 days a week and my skin looks really nice.1 product in post Great retinol product!1785 views - The post was made 8 months
Storage
Hi! Should this be stored cold, like in the fridge? Some vitamin C products oxidize sometimes at room temperature, and I wonder if this applies to this one too?1 product in post Storage1601 views - The post was made 9 monthsRating: 3 out of 5verified customer
No "hair-like effect" but an ok pencil
There’s no hair-like effect with this pencil for me. Clumpy "strands" that aren’t visible, more like a regular brow pencil that fills in an even layer of color. The color is good (I have Taupe) and the longevity seems pretty ok, so I’ll still give it three stars.1 product in post No "hair-like effect" but an ok pencil2361 views - The post was made 10 monthsRating: 1 out of 5
Stains skin and textiles!
No, this was not a hit. Very strong, and that's just how it is. I am tolerant, but it was on the edge even for me. The biggest reason why I am immediately stopping using the product is its color. Bright yellow, and it stains heavily. Both on textiles (yellow tone left on pillowcase even after washing) but also on my skin, which has taken on a faint yellow tone after use.1 product in post Stains skin and textiles!8360 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 10 monthsHey Lisa! ❤ The retinal, which has a naturally yellow color, can in some cases temporarily "settle" a bit on the skin. This can be due to the product not being fully absorbed and how much is applied. Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your experience after using it. If you want tips on something else, if you don't already have one that you think suits you better, our skin therapists are available in the Lyko app under the search function - BeautyScan 🥰 There you can take our skin test. Have a nice day 🌞

Difference between this product and The Ordinary's retinal?
Hi! I'm wondering how this product differs in strength when compared to The Ordinary Retinal 0.2% Emulsion 15 ml? I've started testing TO but feel that it might be a bit too strong. However, I've used weaker retinol before (CeraVe) without getting much effect (used it every day), so I would love to have something that's a bit stronger, but maybe not quite as strong as TO. Thanks!1 product in post Difference between this product and The Ordinary's retinal?2374 views- The user's roll: Customer service at Lyko. The comment was made 11 monthsHey Lisa 😊👋 Difference between the products. Check here 👇 The Ordinary Retinal 0.2% Emulsion and Theramid Clinical Vitamin A Treatment: The Ordinary Retinal 0.2% – Contains only retinal (0.2%) – Very effective but can be irritating for sensitive skin Theramid Vitamin A Treatment – Contains a combination of retinal (0.1%), retinol (0.3%), and granactive retinoid (5%) – A bit milder thanks to the combination, but still active and effective So it could absolutely be something in between 😊👍 Use the product 2 evenings a week and gradually increase. Apply a moisturizing cream afterwards to reduce any dryness. Always use sunscreen during the day when using retinoids, otherwise of course 🌞 Good luck 💗1 likes

Great product with strong scent
I really like this! It gives my skin a very nice glow and evens out my skin tone. No irritation (though very sensitive skin). The only thing I think one might react to is the scent, which is strong and special (hard to describe). It doesn't bother me, but I'm also not scent-sensitive; if you are, I think you might react.1 product in post Great product with strong scent3004 views- The user's roll: Skin therapist at Lyko. The comment was made 1 yearsThank you for your review! So fun that you like it, I do too 🧡 I often have a hard time with scented products, but I love this scent, and it’s Ferulic acid combined with Vitamin C that gives a sort of burnt scent, which can be good to know. I think it disappears quickly after application since it’s only the skincare ingredients that provide the scent and no added fragrance 🙏 Take care!
