She sees an esthetician every six weeks, and once a year she goes to a dermatologist to check on the moles that freckle her face. But at her most recent appointment, her dermatologist said her skin looked “youthful” and there was a visible “difference in the texture on her forehead and around her eyes,” — and it’s all thanks to the Avene Retrinal 0.1 Intensive Cream she’s been using consistently for the last two and a half months. The retrinal cream reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while firming and renewing skin. It’s formulated with retinaldehyde, which gives you a youthful, radiant glow and is gentle on the skin. It also includes Avene’s signature thermal spring water that soothes and softens, and is recommended by the brand you apply nightly to the face, neck, and décolleté. Avene Retrinal 0.1 Intensive Cream Avène Buy Now $79 My mom had been on the hunt for a gentle face cream that would reduce the appearance of crow’s feet around her eyes and the lines creasing across her forehead, while also lifting the sagging skin on her neck, and this intensive cream does just that. She applies it during her nightly skincare routine. She starts by cleansing with a non-exfoliating cleanser, then applying toner, and following up with the retrinal cream. It’s super hydrating and leaves her skin feeling soft immediately after use. She’s also noticed after a month of use, her complexion is much more even, and stubborn old dark spots that wouldn’t go away are finally starting to fade. My mom’s not the only one who’s a fan of the skin-smoothing cream, shoppers are also giving the product a five-star rating. One over 65 reviewer said the cream “improves skin texture” and “prevents breakouts.” Another shopper with sensitive and dry skin said the cream “doesn’t irritate” or cause redness. They’ve also received tons of compliments on their skin. A final reviewer said after a month of use their skin was “softer and more supple looking” and that the cream felt “non-greasy.” Shop Avene’s Retrinal 0.1 Intensive Cream and other popular anti-aging products below.
