Not only does my skin look plumper, hydrated and generally more radiant, it’s also smoother, less congested, and generally clearer. Containing an innovative blend of retinol and sunflower seed fatty acids, Universal Pro-Retinol delivers the line-reducing, pore-refining, tone-correcting and blemish-reducing properties of retinol, without any of the usual upset. And at the same time, it seems to deliver just the right amount of moisture through glycerin and Mondo grass root extract to keep skin happy and healthy.
Is this a seriously high-octane suited for seasoned retinol users? Probably not. Do I think that Universal Pro-Retinol is the perfect entry-level retinol for those who, like me, have struggled with the ingredient in the past? Absolutely. In fact, this has been the only eveing skincare product I’ve been using for the past three weeks, and I don’t intend to change that until the bottle runs out.
