The Retinol Serum

An essential requirement

I employed a modest sample obtained through my rewards points. I am a staunch advocate of Dermalogica's professional retinol, but this product represents a paradigm shift. After just a few applications, my skin feels remarkably hydrated and radiant. I wholeheartedly endorse it.

Great Retinol

Augustinus Bader The Retinol Serum is an absolute game-changer for my skincare routine! It has a luxurious, lightweight texture that absorbs quickly without any irritation. After just a few weeks of use, I've noticed smoother, brighter skin with a reduction in fine lines. The formula is gentle yet effective, making it suitable for sensitive skin. It’s definitely a must-have for anyone looking to improve skin texture and radiance. Highly recommend!

Feels light and feels good

I like that this cream is light, not heavy at all. It goes on well and I'm able to wear my makeup with it with no residue. It makes my face feel moisturized. It could be a little more absorbant but all in all I love it.

Retinol for Sensitive Skin

I’ve always wanted to try retinol but have always been apprehensive due to my sensitive skin. After opening the box you notice the premium package that it comes in. It is the perfect shape to pack for travel. The pump that is used for application is precise and doesn’t over apply retinol. I’ve been using this retinol for a few weeks now. I added it to my skincare routine in the mornings after waking up. My skin feels noticeably softer and it appears as if my rosacea has made slight improvements. I’d imagine I’ll continue to see improvements with continued use over a longer period of time. It does have a slight scent to it which doesn’t last long (a plus for me). It is very smooth and a small pump can easily cover a large part of your skin. Although this is a pricy luxury skincare product, it does show improvements to my skin.

Great for the skin

This moisturizer is amazing for an overnight cream. You MUST wash it off in the morning or you could get horrible sun burns: overall in the morning my skin feels revalitized

Great stuff

I love this retinol. As I’ve gotten older my skin has become sensitive but this is just great. The smell isn’t the best but once my routine is done I don’t smell anything anymore. It helped my texture and redness on my chin, and it absorbs so well!

Great retinol without being too skin tightening

Good product overall, although i have young skin I feel skin tightening but it isnt at an uncomfortable rate which I like. The product absorbs easily and has very nice packaging. As a retinol serum, I think this would work well for more newly aging women because it isnt super strong.

Worth the money

I’ve been using this product for about a month. I’m not new to retinal and I’ve used tretinoin before, but this really made a difference on my skin. It just made my skin smoother and even though this product is at a high price point a little goes a long way a pump, a pump and a half is more than enough to cover your whole face, but I understand the price may not be for everybody. Sometimes I feel that we have to splurge on ourselves, and this is definitely a splurge from the packaging,from the stand that it comes with. This brand is luxury. 

Works well

While the product is effective, it smells just horrible. It’s kind of harsh as sometimes if I’m having a break out on my face it stings as well. But absorbs very well and very sleek and clean.

Seems promising

This Augustinus Bader Retinol Serum has a lightweight consistency and feels silky on your skin. It absorbs quickly and leaves your skin feeling smooth and soft. This is definitely a splurge item so if I buy it again, it’s definitely gonna be because it works super well. As of right now I still have not seen crazy results; however, I feel like it needs more time to show me whether it will actually work or not. Compared to other high-end serums that I have used this one is leaving my skin more moisturized and smoother feeling as a whole. The packaging is nice. It comes with a rose gold stand for the bottle, I’m not sure if there’s a reason why the bottle doesn’t just stand up and is rounded at the bottom. I feel like if it was a regular bottle the stand wouldn’t be needed, but I’m not sure if it’s done to give it more of a prestige look however I think the product could get away without using the stand. The pump works well and gives you a little bit of a time which is perfect because this isn’t something that I want to accidentally waste because I got too much out.

Treat your skin with some luxury

This is the best retinol i’ve tried so far. I know it’s pricey but totally worth your money. Retinol products usually irritate my skin, but this formula is so unique! No irritation no redness. I love that it’s almost scent free. Texture-wise its like a serum, absorbs quickly and leaves no residue. Of course the package is also worth mentioning… it screams luxury

Beautiful

The packaging is an absolutely beautiful color two tone. The same is amazing. The texture is gray. It absorbs great on you. I would definitely recommend this product. It does what it says. It does no Hicks.. I would definitely recommend.
