Retinol Serum 2.5% with Hyaluronic Acid & Vitamin E, 1 fl. oz.

I like the ease at which the retinol is dispensed and it works pretty well as it appears to reduce wrinkles. Also, the price is reasonable.

This stuff is AMAZING!!! I was not sent this item to try or paid for or anything. I've heard of the benefits of retinol for your skin and always wanted to try it, but everything I found has been over $80. I came across this stuff and thought there was no way it would do anything my skin since the price was so low, but I thought I'd give it a try anyway. Literally within a few days I saw a huge difference. I'm 31 and never really had problematic skin. I've actually always received compliments about my skin and have been told I look a lot younger than my age. The only issue I've ever had is my skin is very sensitive and I have to be careful about what I use on it. I decided recently to go off of the birth control pill for a bit (mainly because I've been too lazy to get in to see the doctor and get a refill) and my skin has freaked out on me. I've tried everything I can think of and thought my only solution would be to get back into the doctor to get back on the pill to keep my skin under control. This stuff has saved my skin. As soon as I started using it, my skin cleared up and it has stayed clear ever since. I don't even break out at that time of the month anymore, and my skin looks brighter and feels softer. I don't use any special cleanser or moisturizer (just Cetaphil from the drugstore - it's the only thing my skin seems to like) and I have tried everything else out there. From pricey stuff from Sephora to stuff from the drugstore. This has done it for me. My sensitive skin doesn't have an issue with it and it doesn't dry me out at all. I use it every night and I've never experienced any redness or anything like that. I want to try some of the other items in this skincare line since I'm so impressed with the retinol serum. I hope they never stop making it!

I have only been using Retinol Serum to the last 3 weeks but I could see positive changes to my skin - it's a lot more supple particularly the laugh lines area. My skin is blessed that it doesn't have wrinkles or fine lines but I have suffered from adult cystic acne scarring and recently I could see sagging has started to develop. I wanted to 'improve' these condition hence I tried Amara's retinol. It has not eliminated the scar but somehow smoothen the edges (akin to having had Fraxel, which I had treatment before. this thing is pricey!), and the skin starts to (ever so slightly) be more tight and supple. These improvements are micro change, not like people stop and compliments me. I see the change and I just hope these positive effects continue the more I use this product, and not some kind of placebo effect. I will come back to review after a few more months.

I wanted to use it for at least 30 days before writing a review. I can't do a fair review, unless I explain how I use it to get amazing results. I use 4 of their products at the same time. -Total Repair Eye Gel -Vitamin C Serum -Retinal Serum -Advanced Age-Defying Moisturizer So, I will explain how I use them and my results. To get the best out of these products I suggest doing microdermabrasion first. It will remove all the dead skin and allow the products to penetrate deeper. On a daily bases, I use the Total Repair Eye Gel every morning and every night. I use the Vitamin C Serum every morning, along with the Advanced Age-Defying Moisturizer, then I apply Aveeno Positively Radiant SPF 30. I used the Retinal Serum and Advanced Age-Defying Moisturizer at night. Make sure to exfoliate your skin every other day to get rid of the dead skin that will be servicing. I also started doing micro needling twice a month at home, using a .75 roller (best for acne scars and wrinkles). It helps the products penetrate deeper. You can get it on Amazon. Do your research on it first. You can message me, if you want more information on how I use it. After a month, my skin is glowing! Under my eyes the skin is firm and I have zero lines. I didn't really have any darkening, so I'm using it more as a preventive measure. Now, my makeup goes on silky smooth. I have actually stopped wearing as much makeup, because my skin is so radiant. I'm just using a tinted moisturizer for daily wear. I also have had these deep lines on my neck since I was a teenager and the lines are getting less noticeable. Hopefully, they disappear over time. Note: The first couple of weeks my skin was flaking a little. So, for a couple of days I just used the Aveeno moisturizer only. That helped stop the flaking. Then, I went back to the products. There was no more flaking after that.

Great Retinol product. Gives a light slough, exactly what you want! Always re-buy.

I purchased this retinol serum because I started getting acne, out of no where, on my forehead that would not go away for 1-2 months. I have done some research online and dermatologists have been recommending a retinol serum to help increase the turn over rate of skin cells in order to prevent clogged pores and debris build-up. This serum has a nice gel texture, slightly scented like salted hot-dog water, and a little goes a long way. I started using it on a small portion of my forehead to test out if I'm allergic to it, and I wasn't. I started using it all over my face, especially my forehead. I've noticed that it dries up pretty quickly and leaves a tight/dry feeling on your face. I often put on a layer of moisturizer right after it dries. It does help with soothing the skins and keeping it hydrated! I have oily skin so there is some build up in the morning when I wake up, but when I use this product w/o a moisturizer the night before, there is less oil build up on my face, which is good for preventing pimples or acne. Other than that, I have not yet noticed any difference in fine lines or dark spots. However, this product did not work for my already existing acne.

I added this to my face care routine along with Marula oil. This product is well packaged and dispenses just the right amount. I have very sensitive skin, yet this product did not cause any breakouts, redness or sensitivity. After applying, my skin has a velvety smooth and matte appearance...which I love! No stickiness, no residue, no fuss. I've only been using it once a day for a short period of time, but I swear that I see those fine lines disappearing already. I'm 50, but look more in my 30s and I want to keep it that way, so I plan on purchasing more products from Amara Organics. You cannot beat the customer service either! I was contacted after receiving my product with instructions for use and they wanted to know if I has happy with my purchase. I have since contacted them for further recommendation to which they were more than happy to help and responded immediately. They're even going so far as to send me some samples of products I can try before purchasing. This is wonderful customer service that I truly appreciate! Even though they have a fantastic return policy they're still willing to send me samples at no cost to me. So for me.....a nice product at a fair price and great customer service = one happy customer that will be returning and bringing all her friends! Thank you Amara Organics!!

I have used this product for a year and have to say I love it. I have combination skin with super dry spots on my chin, nose and sides of my cheeks. My skin is crazy sensitive to any changes in weather or products so I added this product to once a week and gradually over 6 weeks increased to pretty much every day. (I forget sometimes). I haven't noticed changes in wrinkles, but in all honesty I wasn't really paying much attention. I don't seem to have any new ones, so there is that. The most dramatic change has been the redness in my skin is gone. I haven't needed a crazy, heavy night creme in months, when I was using one every day for years. I did make a few other changes in my daily skin care process (changed cleansers and toners), but this was the first and seemed to have the most dramatic impact on redness, general tone and oily spots. I have only had mild breakouts in my oily spots in the last year. The texture is great. I like this one over the lotion based ones, because I can slap a better cream over it once it has absorbed and not aggravate the oily patches of my skin. It also pretty much has no smell, which is what I hated about the previous retinol product I used to use. Also 1 oz has lasted me a long time. I use one to two pumps every day and I'm barely broken into my second bottle. So yes, I love it and it seems to be doing what I wanted it to do

It is good for access oil for the face but still it will take weeks to see results.

Très bon produit. Les effets sont perceptiles sur le long-terme.

Product arrived on time, well packaged, instructions and full ingredients on box and bottle. The lovely seller also sent me a detailed email with directions on how to use and tips about the product. Very pleased with purchased, only used once so far, no strong scent which I appreciate, product soaks into skin beautifully. Will update in a few weeks to advise if any improvement in skin but really pleased with purchase and will definitely use this seller again :) 02/08/16: Update - After 2 weeks of using a small amount (1 and a half pumps) each night I can definitely see an improvement in skin, the texture is smoother, blemishes are noticeably fading, less prone to spots and the couple I've had have healed quicker than normal. Absolutely delighted with this product, it's light enough that it soaks in quickly so I can moisturise just minutes after applying this. No complaints at all. Will definitely repurchase this, I've used about 1/3 of the bottle so I'd say it'll last 6 weeks :)

Eine Menge Reviews für dieses Produkt scheinen von Käufern zu sein, die es umsonst bekommen haben, deswegen war ich lange hin- und hergerissen, ob ich das Serum kaufen soll, weil mich dieser Umstand etwas skeptisch gemacht hat. Letztendlich bin ich also tatsächlich zufrieden damit. Typischerweise für Retinolprodukte hat es am Anfang für eine Verschlimmerung meines Hautbildes gesorgt, nachdem dieser Effekt jedoch nach ca. anderthalb Monaten langsam abgeklungen ist, habe ich angefangen, es öfter zu benutzen... und meiner Haut geht es tatsächlich besser, habe ich das Gefühl. Ich bekomme immer noch Pickel, aber das Hautbild an sich ist geschmeidiger geworden, die verstopften Poren verdünnisieren sich langsam und meine Stirn ist nun auch um einiges reiner. Zum Anti-Aging-Effekt kann ich noch nicht viel sagen, da ich erst 20 bin und es in der Hinsicht eher vorbeugend benutze, natürlich in Verbindung mit einer starken Sonnencreme.

Great serum that works to brighten and even out skin - no noticeable change to wrinkles yet... It may take time to see substantial results but personally I noticed a clear difference within a week of use. Recently I have suffered from rosacea and eczema, not to mention general blemishes since developing food intolerances, which sadly left my skin with marks, scars and hyper pigmentation. Not knowing what to do I bought scar creams and a number of serums that didn't quite yield the results I expected. This serum has finally started to turn my skin around. TIP: use it only at night and NEXT to the skin, i.e. as soon as you've cleansed your skin (ideally with a foam cleanser, rather than cream, which tends to leave residue behind), apply the serum without anything else before or after. Don't use a toner before, nor a cream after. Let the serum do its job, just cleanse your face, pat dry and apply serum by patting it in, don't rub. During the day use a good SPF to protect your skin, which becomes more sensitive to the elements.
