Absolutely Wonderful "natural" retinol cream
By My2Angels
I was looking for a natural retinol cream without all the added ingredients most creams have and I came across this. I absolutely love it. I've been using the product for a couple months now and see a dramatic difference when I look in the mirror. My face looks so fresh, clear, and younger. It has helped me with my stubborn crows feet around my eyes and some light wrinkling around my mouth as well. Even my husband compliments how great my skin looks now so I know it's doing it's job. If your looking for a natural retinol cream than this is definately a product worth trying. I did have minor flaking/peeling the first few days of use but since then nothing. I don't believe you could avoid this in any cream with a high concentration of retinol in it. The price is also a big plus.

Works well!
By OGO
I bought this cream from a vitamin website at a lower price, but the price here is great too. I just began recently using it, maybe 2 wks now & am impressed with the results. Seems pretty strong, as it easily dries out my skin with daily use, so I cut down to every other night as directed (or occasionally 3rd night if my skin's particularly itchy or irritated, which happens on my neck). I've learned (through trial & error) to use a very small amount (no bigger than pea-size as instructed) for my face & smooth it down to the lines on my neck & rub any remaining residue on the backs of my hands. My skin already seems brighter, smoother, a few years younger-looking than I've been looking lately (I'm 40 & much to my disappointment my age has started to catch up with me). I heard retinol is air & light sensitive so I'm not sure how potent my jar will remain as opposed to an airless pump bottle, but I like this cream a lot & will continue to use it. I've heard of others spending more money on high end retinol products in airless pump dispensers & not getting any good results. This cream gives me results. If I use it daily it begins to flake my skin around my mouth & chin. I used to use prescription tretinoin cream (Retin-A) years ago, so I'm familiar with the intense peeling misery that comes with it which I'm not willing to live with again - why bother with that again when this retinol cream works just as well but a little more gently & comfortably. I alternate the days with a strong glycolic acid lotion to exfoliate my skin & keep it moisturized with CeraVe cream (other creams & oils like argan still left my skin dry after they absorbed). I recommend Life-Flo retinol for skin renewal & if you try it, definitely heed the directions to use it sparingly & start slowly - certainly not a cream to slather on richly.

Great Product for 40's and up
By shelley
Excellent. Found sample at health food store but too expensive. Has smooothed out fine lines, eliminated most acne. Took a while to build up the suggested amount. Now I put on more than the suggested amount and my skin just glows. Wonderful stuff.
