Minimalist Granactive Retinoid 02% Face Cream | Anti Aging Night Cream | Reduces Wrinkles & Fine Lines | Improves Skin Elasticity, Boosts Collagen for Radiant & Glowing Skin | 1 Fl Oz / 30 ml

I love this! This is the first product that I’m repurchasing since starting to rebuild my skin care routine about 6 months ago. It’s gentle enough for my sensitive skin so that I can use it everyday without irritation and I’ve seen improvements to the wrinkles on my forehead. I was using adapalene before this but didn’t love the way my skin felt on it. Granactive seems to be the retinoid I can tolerate! This has a bit of a strange smell, but it’s mild and fades quickly so isn’t a deal breaker. If you like a rich moisturizer this won’t be enough on its own, but it’s perfect for my combination (leaning to oily) skin in a humid climate. The pump took me a bit to get used to and as I’m running out of the first bottle I feel like it’s hard to get the last bits out, but the price is so good I don’t mind.

I’ve been using this for about a year and it’s been great for my skin.

The Minimalist brand is new to me. I was intrigued by the formulations & low price point, which remind me of The Ordinary & Inkey List, two affordable brands with many products I find to be effective. I'm very experienced when it comes to retinol/retinal/retinaldihyde. I've used Tretinoin off & on for the past 5 years but it's been a minute. My goal is to start Tret again but bc it's been a while I felt it would be a good idea to start reintroducing my skin in order to avoid destroying my moisture barrier while reaping the anti-aging benefits that these products provide. The Minimalist 2% Retinoid Anti-Aging Night Emulsion has a much thinner texture than I expected but I definitely appreciate it as you only need 1 or 2 pumps for the face & neck. Zero fragrance, non-comedogenic (won't clog pores), & dermatologically tested. Smooth application, absorbs nicely, without that greasy, or tacky feeling left behind, & it layers well with other products (no pilling). The product is housed in a tube with a pump, which may, or may not, be air tight (better than a jar, dropper, or squeeze tube imo) & the product dispenses easily. I've only been using this emulsion every other night for about 3 weeks (with the Minimalist Retinal eye cream) & I really like it! It's not Tretinoin, which is the gold standard, but it's definitely a quality product, perfect for a Retinoid newbie, or someone more experienced like myself who's restarting their anti-aging journey. Highly recommended!

I like this

This is not as high quality as Neutrogena’s version. Very thin and watery. I can’t see much impact on my skin.

Honestly overall a great product! Been using it for a few weeks, no irritation at all...not the strongest retinoid so you won't see results fast.

I would highly highly recommend this product! I've been on a mission to try and have a solid skin care routine. I've tried different products but this one is one of my subscriptions. At first I would definitely recommend to using it every few days at first so your skin can get used to it. You may get some peeling but once you're used to it you can switch to every night. I'm obsessed. I have definitely noticed a difference in my 11's and forehead lines. My friends don't think I look my age and I owe it to this magic in a bottle. I do wish it was a bigger bottle but for the price it's perfect. There is no smell which is nice.

Loved this product until they switched packaging. Doesn't last as long and hard to pump from container.

Pelle più luminosa e uniforme Non so se questa crema mi abbia fatto diventare più giovane… direi di no, purtroppo non fa miracoli. Però qualcosa l’ho notato: la pelle è più uniforme, il tono sembra migliorato e al mattino appare più riposata. La texture è piacevole, si assorbe bene e non lascia la pelle unta. Per ora l’esperienza è decisamente positiva, quindi promossa a pieni voti.

Gentle formula with visible results after a few weeks. No peeling or redness.

Good product. For my skin I'm able to easily tolerate. Not sure about results yet as it's just been few days. 5 rating is for texture, easily to apply and tolerate. Will update my review on how it works after sometime

Tiene buena calidad pero no mucha! A veces he sentido un poco de escozor al ponerla

Amazing product 👌
