Love this video!! 😊 I LOVE the BOJ around my eyes. So much silkier and better to apply than my Avene. (Kind of blew my mind.) Have used Avene 0.1 on my neck for a while and got the naturium on sale recently bc it’s so much more budget friendly. It glides on so nicely and will be better on my husband’s face when he isn’t clean shaven than the thicker Avene.

Hi Rob, since we're both 30-something and are oily-dehydrated, acne-prone skin twins, I'm curious -- do you prefer retinal or adapalene? I used up 2 tubes of the Geek & Gorgeous A Game 10 and didn't notice any changes. Then I switched to Differin Gel and am just finishing up my first tube... also didn't notice any changes. The Differin Gel's texture fits nicer into my evening routine, but I know retinal may have more studied anti-aging benefits. I know that retinoids can take ages to show effects, so I'm wondering which one I should stick with for the long haul!

G&G really shook up the industry by providing an affordable, accessible Retinal product I mean even with shipping cost it’s still less expensive than my Avene I was using for 2 yrs straight , G&G is the reason we now see brands attempting to create affordable/ accessible Retinal in the states , if G&G full brand gets picked up and placed on a shelf in stores here in the states 💥SHOOK💥 they are killing it 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽thanks to them offering a high strength 0.1 retinal which my skin has adapted too my wallet is so grateful 😂 , very happy to hear Naturium released there 0.05% for people ready to begin the retinal journey and that price just smacked the industry hopefully they are attempting there 0.1% version for advanced users that will be another big move 🙌🏽 Another small brand here in the states getting overlooked and made an affordable gentle Retinal and is at all our popular spots like Ulta and target and drugstores is eczema honey ‼️ long story long 😂 I stopped ordering my Avene was awaiting my order for G&G so needed something in the meantime ran to target picked up eczema honey was impressed by the inky list on top of its inclusion of retinal and the price I also wanted to try it for specifically my kneck as we know vitamin A can be tuff for that area so I had decided if this works it could be my dedicated kneck area treatment as part of my “ aging gracefully” nighttime routine 😂 and also because my G&G was taking time to get me I really really was impressed with it fast forward 💨 👉🏽 I accidentally did something when I finally got my G&G retinal so I was doing my nighttime skin routine gentle wash pat dry apply my G&G to my face then accidentally applied to my kneck as well then realized what I did and didn’t get any irritation or sensitivity I then did something that breaks the rules I reached for my eczema honey retinal and then applied it on top 😱 I just layered a high strength with a low strength retinal and just broke a lot of rules I also failed to mention Beauty of Joseon is used around the eye area and topped off with layers of thick moisturizer’s my skin is enjoying it 🤯 I figured I’m not peeling no flaking no sensitivity for my skin how is this possible , I already know I’m not venturing into tret unless that becomes affordable and I figured what I’m doing can’t be even as strong as the strongest prescription I’m guessing it must be either encapsulated time release or some of the anti inflammatory ingredients like the oat or honey in the second layer that combats any irritation this started accidental and now has me perplexed………. Oh P.S. and I know I aent the only one thinking it If The Ordinary makes there first Retinaldehyde ………….😱‼️

I have used Retinol palmitate (+squalane) for quite some time and my skin tolerates it well. I have very sensitive skin, though. Do you think it may react to 0,15% retinal? The serum in question has niacinamide, ceramides, ashwagandha and cloudberry seeds. Thank you.
