Retinol Reform Peel,1 oz (30ml)

I'm not sure what other reviewers are referring to on here because I've ordered this product from Amazon on Shani Darden's website and it's the exact same product, and it's real, it even says it's sold by Shani Darden. It has always been a thinner consistency and it has always had an odor exactly the same from both Amazon and her website, I have never seen a difference. It's not overbearing odor but it's certainly not a delightful smell-- but I don't care because this stuff is amazing and makes my skin glow. It smoothes out lines and pores and I even let my husband try it and within one use his skin was glowing and smooth. I battled cystic acne from hormones and it definitely helped, along with other Shani Darden products. Obviously if you are using a retinol you need to use sunscreen and limit sun exposure, it's not always ideal in the summertime if you spend a lot of time outside but it really does make a significant difference in my skincare and when I skip or don't use it for a week or so I notice a difference. I love it, it's worth the price.

I used this product for 6 months buying it directly from my esthetician. She moved away and I was excited to find it on Amazon. So, I set up a subscription to purchase monthly. Right away I knew something was off. The product smelled really awful and it was watery thin. Never before had the product been that consistency or had an unpleasant odor. I continued to receive it for 2 more months. At that time, I contact the actual manufacturer who said that they were unable to confirm the authenticity of the product sold at Amazon. I ordered it directly from the manufacturer and am happy to say that is indeed the product I was using before. Sadly, I do not know what they are selling on Amazon, but it's not the same. That being said, I hadn't yet noticed any difference in its performance, but the smell is just awful and there is no way to know what the actual ingredients are in the product sold through Amazon.

I really like this product. I see an improvement in my skin already

This stuff really works! I bought this along with the IS clinical face wash. I’ve always struggled with acne since my teens. I am now 26. I’ve tried everything under the sun both topically and in the form of ingested tablets from the G.P.In short, I think this needs to be used in conjunction with a good face wash but it definitely delivers results. For me, the first month was horrible as my skin looked considerably worse for a while and my partner told me whatever I was using was making my skin worse but I read up about “purging” and that’s definitely what happened.Gradually all the gunk came to the surface and everything calmed down eventually.Now I never get pimples anymore, if just one or twice around that time of the month.Worth buying for sure!

Not bad but there's no difference after three bottles over six months and it's a small bottle , very expensive.It has a strong smell almost like tobacco.

This is definitely a bit drying. And, it does burn or tingle a little. I use it for acne and it helps keep that under control for the most part, but I question the anti aging effects. The other question I have about this is if the bottle is even full? It doesn't last very long, and before you know it, you are on to the next bottle. And, this is way too pricey to go through that quickly. I use it sparingly each application, but I still find myself going through bottle after bottle. Maybe if they dropped the price a bit, I might reconsider using it on a regular basis. For now, I just can't afford to use it regularly, and unfortunately, since it works gradually, I may never get the benefits of long term use!

One of my fav beauty vloggers Teni Panosian raved about this so after much thought and research (as I know what works for some doesn't work for all), I decided to give this a try. A little background: I have combination/oily skin, hormonal breakouts on my chin and sensitive skin due to eczema. I return almost every product that people (vloggers & beauty editors) rave about because it irritates my skin. After one use (I used as part of my nighttime routine), I woke up with skin that looked glowing and my imperfections/acne scars were slightly faded! The instructions say to ween yourself onto the product (as most retinol products suggest), once a week then work up to every other day and I'm wishing I could rush that process to achieve that glowy, flawless skin! I did not have the dryness or redness like I did from other retinol products I've tried. I know this is high praise given I've only tried this once and I promise to update my review if things go south but I'm so in love with this I just had to share. I've already made my three best friends invest in this! If you're on the fence and reading this, it's worth it!

I've used this cream several times normally i buy it in shani daren website but this time i bought it brought here,, been a prime member and an amazon addict makes me check everything here... the and i always appreciate the reviews.the cream has a REALLY REALLY strong smell I've never noticed before! its imposible to miss and wen is something you apply in your face well i don't play with that. i instantly wrote to her and the company ask me my order information then is when i realized i bought here.its an AMAZING PRODUCT buuuuuut i don't know what is wrong with this one that amazon sells, is not a cheap product and i don't recommend playing with your face products.
