SKINCARE fans are raving about an inexpensive anti-aging retinol serum.
Many praised it for eviscerating their wrinkles and lines without irritating the skin.
Amazon shoppers piled on the praise for the $21 Cosrx Retinol 0.5 Oil with thousands of five-star reviews.
One happy customer said she experienced an “amazing difference in skin texture with no irritation.”
“I’ve tried many retinol (including prescription) and had LOTS of peeling and flaking and irritation despite following all the protocols and following the directions of my dermatologist,” she said.
“I almost didn’t try this and am so glad I did. My middle-aged skin is glowing and has better elasticity.”
The anti-aging serum, she added, has earned her compliments from people she knows.
“I’ve been using [it for] two months and have been asked multiple times what I’m using by friends,” she said.
“I’ve also had several people guess my age at ten years younger than I am, which was not happening before!”
Others agreed with her take that the $21 buy worked better than more expensive, high-end brands.
One reviewer said the Cosrx serum was “better than the $100 ones.”
“I had this on my list for our family name drawing at Christmas, and it was one of the items my son-in-law bought me,” she said.
“I am blown away! I have used very expensive creams and oils for my face and never noticed much except for softer skin.”
She explained that she saw visible results in a short time after using the product.
“I’m blessed at 53 to only have wrinkles on my forehead and neck, but after two weeks, they had already smoothed out, including a small scar I had on my forehead,” she said.
She added that the serum’s gentle formulation allowed her to amp up her regular usage.
“I’ve been using it every night once I realized it didn’t irritate my skin like others do.
Despite the increased frequency of her dosage, she was shocked that a little went a long way.
“Six weeks later, and still on the same bottle,” she said.
“I can’t believe how great it works. This will be my go-to from now on, and [I] can’t wait to try their other products.”
The serum’s affordable price tag, she added, made the serum a no-brainer.
“The price is cheaper than grocery store and drugstore serums,” she said.
