Product review:

revision retinol

To be honest, there are not many Retinols I do like, but as I am loving using the Revision Vitamin C , hydrating serum, and the brightening cleanser I thought I would give it a go.
Also, I am not getting any younger and retinol's are known for their anti-aging effects and ability to smooth fine lines and prevent wrinkles!!
 
With a lot of retinol products, you get dryness and irritation, but with this one, I didn't experience anything.
It has a time-release technology, so it's fairly gentle on the skin. I of course introduced it in the correct way- apply twice in the first week, then every other night the following week and the third week nightly.
 
 
 It is a yellow lotion that is easy to apply,  goes on smoothly, doesn't have much of an odour and a small amount goes a long way.
 
I have not used it long enough to see any long term benefits, but my skin is already feeling smoother and I would say looking a lot healthier & brighter even after 6 weeks
 
I can’t wait to see the results in another few months!
