Reviews
Pros
- often described by users as noticeably softening and smoothing skin texture with continued use
- some users report visible improvement in firmness and fine lines within four to eight weeks
- brand and retailer sources note the retinol-infused capsule delivery is designed to be gentler than standalone retinol
Cons
- some users note the herbal ginseng scent is polarizing -- described as either grounding or overly medicinal
- several reviewers mention the premium price point (over $200 for 50 mL) as the main drawback
- a few users with sensitive skin report needing to patch test given the retinol content
