I'm not sure if I see any noticeable effects. I bought it after seeing good reviews on YouTube. It applies well, doesn't cause any trouble, and is all good, but the amount is too little.
ConsThe price is expensive and the amount is too little. Since it is applied to the face twice, it runs out quickly.
TipJust slap it on twice in a row.

It was certainly quite suitable as a beginner's product, with minimal irritation. I had used Retrides before, and this was much less stinging, so I could use it comfortably. ' The texture also spreads smoothly, and I was able to use it comfortably the next day without any particular trouble. However... the really disappointing thing is the volume. The amount is too little compared to the price.
ConsConsidering the nature of retinol products, consistent use is required to see skin improvement effects, but I found that this product ran out quickly after using it for a while. I'm not sure about the effectiveness yet, and I didn't feel like there was a drastic change with just this item. I would recommend this as a decent introductory product for those trying retinol for the first time, but for long-term use, the price-to-volume ratio is something that should be carefully considered.

I was always hesitant because my skin reacts sensitively to retinol, but the IOPE product's 'low-irritation retinol' was just right as a starter. For the first 1-2 weeks, I went through an adaptation period every other day, and now I apply it every night without any irritation, and my skin has become smooth. The formula applies smoothly like a thin cream and has almost no stickiness. It also absorbs quickly, so there's no burden moving on to the next step. I can feel my eye area, laugh lines, and forehead wrinkles gradually smoothing out, and my skin texture has become visibly smoother without affecting my makeup application. Highly recommended for those who want to try retinol! It's gentle and safe for skin improvement. With consistent use, you'll definitely feel your skin gaining firmness and a refined texture.
ConsDry skin may lack sufficient moisturization when used alone, so it is recommended to use it in conjunction with a cream. While it may have a less immediate effect compared to high-concentration products, it focuses on stable changes.

ConsThe price...? I used retinol ingredients because they are popular, but the price still feels a bit expensive.

TipApplying vitamin C together actually makes it even better.

I thought the Amore Pacific Retinol products would be at least average since they are so well-known, so I just used the sample. I peeled one open and used it for about 3 days, and my skin seems to be glowing. I used retinol for a while, then stopped at some point, but as I'm getting older, I think I should start using it again. When I finish what I have, I might buy some for my mom first.
ConsThe price is a bit on the expensive side. It would be good to wait for a discount or a live event.

Unless my skin is in an extremely irritated state, there was no irritation. The effects can be seen after using it for a few days, so it is a pretty good item.
ConsWhen your skin is really sensitive, it's best not to use it. After all, it's retinol...
TipWe recommend starting with retinol. Please apply it carefully and focus on moisturization.

I prefer unscented products, but the slightly refreshing scent is nice. It applies smoothly without any residue and is quickly absorbed. After absorption, it does not feel like the moisture is evaporating, which is good. It definitely helps with exfoliating and refining the skin texture, and the pores appear smaller. The difference before and after using is noticeable, which is great. I was worried about the retinol ingredient causing irritation, but it has not caused any issues for my skin at all. I will definitely repurchase this product.
ConsThe price may not be cheap, but I suppose the product is of good quality. However, I wish they would have more sales.
TipApply together with niacinamide.

The review is completely unbiased and honest, with no guidelines or restrictions. Trial Reviewers' reviews undergo the same strict verification process as regular reviews, and if they don't meet our standards, revisions will be requested.ProsI purchased a retinol product to try, as it is said to be good for managing enlarged pores and skin regeneration. I only apply it at night, as I was advised to always use sunscreen after applying retinol during the day. The scent is slightly medicinal, but I don't find it particularly bothersome and have been using the product without issue. The formula is soft and moisturizing. It absorbs quickly without leaving a sticky residue, which I am satisfied with. Retinol products can be irritating for sensitive skin, but this one seems gentle and non-irritating, which is great. After using it for a few days, I feel my skin has become much smoother, and the product seems to be effectively managing my skin's texture. I plan to continue using this product consistently.
ConsSo far, I have not found any unsatisfactory aspects and have been using it.
TipAs mentioned earlier, since you need to be mindful of UV rays during the day, it's easier to apply the product at night.~^^
