I've ordered the retinol twice now and I love it! I wash my face, do my under eye gels until they dry, use the retinol, then the power essence, then the moisturizer, letting each one dry and soak in before using the next. I love this concoction. You'll have to order the retinol more often than the others, and obviously it's going to be a little more expensive, but it's totally worth it, and definitely on the cheaper side compared to other brands. It's lightweight and sits well under makeup, hydrating, the texture is smooth, never lumpy, and I definitely feel like I glow after my routine. Great products at a great price!
