Advanced Retinol + Ferulic Texture Renewal Serum - 1 oz

I’m probably on my 5th bottle of this serum, and I will bite the bullet and shell out the $70+ every single time I need to repurchase it. I have tried a multitude of different products and supplements to help combat my acne and texturized skin over the years, while there were some products that helped to minimize my acne, this has been the only product to actually help me achieve clear, smooth skin. It’s very light and a few drops goes a long way for the face and neck, it’s easy to spread and pat in and feels a bit tacky at first, but that goes away after a minute and I use a nighttime moisturizer afterwards. I reviewed the ingredients and I’m extremely impressed by the fact that Dr. Dennis has managed to balance Salicylic, Lactic, and Glycolic Acid with retinol, as they usually should not be used all together at once but this serum is gentle enough that I’m able to use it every night. I also used to have very negative reactions with glycolic acid but this one seems to benefit my skin so well. I’ve seen some people complain about the fact that it has a smell similar to dog food but in my opinion it’s faint and I’m paying for its skin benefits, not its scent. Despite being a college student and very frugal with my money, I will splurge on this product each and every time I run out. My skin has never been so radiant and clear!

Absolutely love this product. My skin looks and feel amazing. My skin doesn't feel dry, it's smooth amd tight. Evens my skin tone too.

I follow up my cleanse and peel with this serum. The warm spicy clove scent is light but so homey and comforting. The serum is so soothing going on!

Within one week friends and family started commenting my skin looked amazing. I’m in my late 40s and just decided to start investing in my skin. I wish I’d taken before and after photos because the results are pretty astounding. It’s only been two weeks now and I’m already loyal! The thing I notice most is my skin tone is evening out. I’ve not been good with the sunscreen so I have hyperpigmentation on my cheeks and my face was over all splotchy. Those patches are rapidly fading. I don’t know if I see a solid change in my fine lines yet… but it’s only been two weeks! I’m definitely sticking with it as most other things I’ve bought don’t seem to do much. Not the case with this stuff!!!

Saw a girl on TikTok who swears by this stuff. I took the risk and spent the money. It did fade some of my acne scars but other than that it hasn’t done much.

Dr. Dennis Gross Advanced Retinol + Ferulic Texture Renewal Serum: for a Smooth, Retextured Complexion 1 oz This yellowish serum is dispensed from a dark dropper bottle and smooths easily across skin. Absorbs quickly and fully. There is no added fragrance but it has an mildly unpleasant odor that is common to many retinol products. The smell dissipates quickly after application. The formula is very effective at improving the look of lines and wrinkles and giving skin a glow. It's a potent blend of retinol, bakuchiol, AHAs, BHAs, and antioxidants. Although it's marketed as a "daily" serum, if you are new to retinol you will want to start with less frequent application and work your way towards daily. #alcohol-free #fragrance & essentialoil-free Key Ingredients: Anti-acne: Salicylic Acid Antioxidant: Bakuchiol, Ferulic Acid, Soy Isoflavones, Ubiquinone, Quercetin Cell-communicating ingredient: Retinol, Bakuchiol, Adenosine Exfoliant: Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid Skin brightening: Hexylresorcinol Skin-identical ingredient: Glycerin, Squalane, Linoleic Acid, Phospholipids, Sodium Hyaluronate, Sodium PCA Soothing: Salicylic Acid, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Quercetin, Panthenol Full Ingredients: Water/​Aqua/​Eau, Propylene Glycol, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Polyglyceryl-10 Laurate, Glycerin, Ethoxydiglycol, Lactic Acid, Hydroxypropyl Starch Phosphate, Mandelic Acid, Retinol, Bakuchiol, Nephelium Lappaceum Leaf Extract, Ferulic Acid, Squalane, Linoleic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Salix Alba (Willow) Bark Extract, Phospholipids, Soy Isoflavones, Sodium Hyaluronate, Saccharide Isomerate, Ubiquinone, Sodium PCA, Hexylresorcinol, Quercetin, Adenosine, Morus Alba Bark Extract, Panthenol, Glycolic Acid, Maltodextrin, Xanthan Gum, Leuconostoc/​Radish Root Ferment Filtrate, Caprylic/​Capric Triglyceride, Potassium Hydroxide, Polysorbate 20, Sodium Phytate, Citric Acid, Sodium Citrate, Phenoxyethanol, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate

Great product

Ok so.. I had acute sun ravaged skin—went to an amusement park 2 days in a row and got way too much sun. For the next couple weeks after I was agonizing over how crappy my skin looked. My pores were bigger than usual, skin was dry and wrinkles were more pronounced and my complexion overall was drab. I looked up how to fix sun damaged skin and retinol kept popping up.. so, I found this product and decided try it out. I also bought the .5 retinol pads. I used both at night followed by my usual moisturizer and OMG. The next morning there was a HUGE improvement. I couldn’t believe it—was not expecting that at all. I’ve used it twice now and I’m so happy with the results. I feel like myself again. This stuff is amazing!
