“I love your granactive retinoids and its feeling on my face but I passed it out to my mother. I can’t see the point of using such product if I can’t see cellular turnover but only soft skin from squalane. So I decided to give this a try (my skin is somehow used to prescription adapalene so I know side effects, what to expect from vitamin A derivatives and I learned how to deal with fleaky skin). I’m not comfortable enough to use it on my whole face so I did exactly the same as I did with adapalene: used it as spot treatment on comedones, pimples, scars and PIE. And now I can see the cellular turnover! I use it just on the other day and the morning after my skin is a bit fleaky, but not something I can’t deal with. The squalane in it actually works, it makes your skin more able to get used to retinols. Love it so far.”
