InstaNatural Retinol Serum Review
I am a huge fan of InstaNatural skin care products. They are made with quality ingredients and always seem to perform well. Lately, I have been using their Age-Defying Retinol Serum. Retinol Serum is supposed to help reverse the appearance of sun damage and signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and generally give skin a more youthful appearance.
The serum has 2.5% retinol; Retinol, a form of vitamin A, is a powerful antioxidant. Retinol has been used to help acne, eczema, to improve skin discoloration, and to decrease the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The moisturizer also contains 20% vitamin C, 10% hyaluronic acid, and plant and fruit acids.
The serum has a somewhat milky consistency. To use the serum, start with freshly washed and dried skin. Use a toner if you wish. Then apply a small amount of serum to your hands and apply gently to your face and neck. Allow it to dry completely before applying moisturizer and cosmetics. It absorbs and dries quickly on the skin.
The first time that I used it, I felt a slight burning sensation, which went away within a couple of minutes. My skin has gotten used to the serum, but some people may find retinol irritating. I normally apply it at bedtime, along with InstaNatural Advanced Action Retinol Moisturizer. After regular use over the past three weeks, I am happy with the results. I’ve gotten firmer skin and less noticeable lines on my forehead. Retinol does make your skin more sensitive to the sun, so make sure to wear sunscreen.
InstaNatural Age-Defying Retinol Serum is available on Amazon.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

InstaNatural Advanced Action Retinol Moisturizer Review
The moisturizer has 2.5% retinol, which compared to other non-prescription strength retinol products is really good. Retinol is a form of vitamin A and a powerful antioxidant. Retinol has been used to help acne, eczema, to improve skin discoloration, and to decrease the appearance of lines and wrinkles. The moisturizer also contains vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, jojoba oil, shea butter, and green tea.
The retinol moisturizer is light and not greasy. I like the consistency, not too thick, so it goes on smooth and easily. It absorbs and gets to work quickly. Another plus, in my opinion, is that there is no discernible scent.
The first time that I used it, I did feel a slight tingling sensation, which soon went away. My skin has gotten used to the moisturizer, but some people may find retinol irritating. After using it for the past three weeks, I am happy with the results. I’ve gotten smoother skin and the crease in my forehead is less noticeable. I’ve been pairing the retinol moisturizer with the InstaNatural Retinol Serum, and together they are awesome.
Retinol can make your skin more sensitive to the sun, so make sure your have sunscreen on, if you’re going out. For this reason, I prefer to use the retinol products at bedtime.
InstaNatural Advanced Action Retinol Moisturizer is available on Amazon. It is economically priced, when compared to other retinol moisturizers.
