Retinol 0.5 - love it

My skin is loving Retinol 0.5 and has made a big difference. Fine lines around my mouth and eyes are smoother and my pores are smaller. I pair it with the Triple Lipid Restore moisturizer around my eyes and mouth, and the Daily Moisture for my forehead, nose, and cheeks. Very happy with my results after just a couple weeks.
