20 Best Wrinkle Cream For Acne Prone Skin (Jan 2023 Update)

I bought Kate Somerville products before. I loved the product but wasted most of it because I couldn't get it out of the spray bottle. The packaging was terrible. It wasn't a fluke. I bought the same product twice and it happened both times. I tried the wrinkle cream because I liked the quality of the first product but the wrinkle cream gave mediocre results and the packaging was also terrible. Drugstore products have better packaging! It was a challenge to open the jar, especially when I was in a hurry. They used the cheapest components. Now I can't even return it because it's passed the 30 days so I'll use it up but never buy Kate Sommerville products again.catshopper

I absolutely love this cream! I have been using it for years now and my skin is softer, it has helped my acne scars and discoloration, and wrinkles. I only use it at night. And I do use the exfoliate scrub 3 times a week with it. As well as the exfoliate facial wash. From years of super oily skin and bad acne and numerous dermatologist appts, kate Somerville products finally was what has helped my skin become normal again. Will never switch to another brand! 10 years of using their products and love it all!LANH N.

Beautiful texture, my skin was nourished and plumping. I love the effect of my skin after massaging was really lovely. it did improve overall of my skin texture but the wrinkles are still there. It hasn’t done anything on my early 30’s fine lines. Altho I don’t expect skincare to actually reduce my ‘wrinkles’, I still feel a bit disappointed that it did nothing about my fine lines. Because of the product’s name and communication lead customer (like me) to have a little hope about this $135 jar.Paris the Cat

Ya'll!!! I know this is not a new product on the market by any means, but it's the first time I've tried it and OMGGGGGG! It actually works! And in the time frame specified! So few products actually do what they purport to do, but Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair does! I am just in shock at how great this product is. I had three fine lines on my forehead and the beginnings of a "1" between my eyebrows. I've been using this product for a week now and the lines are GONE!! Not just made fainter, but gone! Even my smile lines around my mouth have disappeared. OMG I wish I had tried this product sooner as I've been wanting to forever. However, I finally tried it and the results are real folks. Not only does this product actually work, but you get a larger amount (1.7oz) compared to most other moisturizers (usually 1.0oz). It is well worth the $20+ price, which is still way lower than some of your "luxury" brands. Also, I know it is the Neutrogena that is working because not only is it the only new thing I have added to my skincare regimen but I stopped all my other skincare steps (except for cleansing, of course) so I could determine if Rapid Wrinkle Repair works. After cleansing, I applied this product directly to my face, neck, and decolletage and then sealed it with The Ordinary's 100% Plant-Derived Squalane. I wanted Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair directly touching my skin to give it a proper chance to do its business, and it did! It is not drying in any way even though it has retinol in it. It is still very moisturizing (I have very dry skin), and my face, neck, and decolletage were properly moisturized and did not seem to miss the other hydrating steps I cut out of my regimen to try this product. Now I can resume my original skincare routine with this product added to it and I am soooo looking forward to it. This is an AMAZING product! I wholeheartedly recommend it and you will not be disappointed. Thank you, Neutrogena, for a miracle product! God bless you all!crash.j

I’m in my mid 20s and I have really stubborn skin. My skin is dehydrated oily and sensitive, which makes it prone to large and clogged pores and red marks. Nothing I’ve tried seemed to help reduce the clogged pores and oiliness, even BHA. I also started having fine lines under my eyes and neither moisturizing nor oil-based eye creams have worked. After using this product for a few times (with a few days in between each use), I noticed that my undereye wrinkles have finally smoothed noticeably. My blackheads are also more in control and redness have faded. It sounds too good to be true but this is my new holy grail! I think it’s a great product for first time users of retinol. However, it’s safer to start slow, especially for people with sensitive skin like me. Even now I avoid using on consecutive days and only apply a thin layer. If i apply too frequently or too much, my face will sting the next day, especially around my cheekbones. I would’ve preferred the fragrance-free version but too bad it’s not available on iHerb. The fragrance is a bit strong for me, but if you apply a thin layer it’s bearable. Overall, this is a great and affordable product that deserves more hype. Looking forward to more improvements in my skin!iHerb Customer

This review is for the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Pro+ 0.3% Night Cream 🌸 What it is The new Neutrogena Retinol Pro+ Night Cream combines 0.3% Pure Retinol and Hyaluronic Acid. The highest concentration retinol cream that Neutrogena currently has to offer. The pure retinol fights aging while the Hyaluronic acid plumps and hydrates. A knock-out combination! 🌸 What it doesn’t have *No fragrance, *dyes, *mineral oil, *phthalates, or *parabens 🌸 Directions Apply this to your face and neck after cleansing in the evening as part of your anti-aging skincare routine. 🌸 Thoughts and Findings This cream is thick and rich in texture and goes on silky smooth. It immediately soaks into the skin without leaving residue behind. My skin didn’t feel tight, red, or stripped and it’s fragrance free. After one use I could see immediate hydration and smoother skin texture. After a week of using this nightly, my skin was soft, smooth, brighter, and extremely hydrated. I can’t wait to see my results after a month of further use! 🌸 To Sum It Up The Retinol Pro+ .3% Night Cream is the perfect addition to any anti-aging beauty or skincare routine and has earned a place on my bathroom shelf! At $37 this retinol is both affordable and effective. 🌸 If you’re a retinol user, I know you’ll love this just as much as I do! 🌸 I received this complimentary Retinol Pro+ Night Cream from #Neutrogena in exchange for my honest review.amy.s

If you have never used retinol before and want to add it into your routine, start with this one! It is so gentle but very effective! I seen very noticeable results in about 3 weeks and at around the 6 week mark my skin texture had completely changed. I did bump up to a higher percentage after I finished this tube off, but go at your own pace according to what your skin can tolerate. Patience and consistency is key to seeing results but I promise, if you are consistent you will see results. I definitely recommend trying this one out!Hilary

I rarely write reviews. This cream is always sold out for a reason . It works! There is a noticeable difference in the lines on my forehead, my pores look smaller and it also seemed to clear up some sun spots I had. It’s gently and effective . Perfect for a first time retinol user. It’s gentle so there was no purge at all. I also find it to be moisturizing enough that you don’t need to add a moisturizer on top unless you want to. I do just because I’m addicted to my moisturizer but otherwise, this at night, is all you need.Marissa

I have been using this product for just 3 weeks now and I feel that it's helped a lot with overall texture and appearance of my skin. I don't have the most blemishes from acne but I feel that those I do have, have been improving since I began using this. I initially wanted to start retinol to target the hyperpigmentation around my mouth which I would imagine is relatable to a lot of my fellow WOC with the same concern. So far, I don't know if this product has helped too much with that. It might be too soon to tell. It is extremely gentle though and even though I have dry skin, this product has not made it worse. I feel that using it alongside my regular lotion and serum has actually just helped my skin a lot!Vartika P.

This moisturizer is wonderful! Goes on smoothly, no harsh fragrance and my face stays hydrated all day! I have also noticed an overall smoothness to my complexion. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because the jar doesn’t hold very much. When I opened it it wasn’t even FULL. I feel like I got cheated product! Anyway, I hope Vichy will get wind of that and fill the jar completely next time. I will purchase again, however.RJG

I really like the moisturizer. I have sensitive and dry skin so its hard to find a moisturizer that both hydrates well and doesn't break my skin out. I do have the full-size of this product (easier to hold the sample) and have been using it for a few months now, I can't really say it has done much for my wrinkles but since I was more concerned with hydration it works for what i bought it for. My only complaint is that i can really only use it at night as it seems to pill on my face and doesn't absorb well enough to go on under makeup. All in all I will continue to buy until I can find something better.amy.f

I have super dry skin, oddly enough in my t-zone. My skin often flakes between my brows. I used to have oily skin, but has changed since aging. I don't like really greasy or heavy moisturizers to wear during the day, so this one was perfect. It makes my skin feel super soft but I'm not shining like a beacon in the night. I will warn that it does have a fairly strong scent, but it's very fresh. I use this under my makeup and it doesn't disrupt it if I let it sit for a moment to sink in. I recommend it for anyone that likes to go bare face, but wants to look moisturized without looking shiny or greasy.TIffany

A lot of reviewers say it burns. It does a little but this is what made me feel like it's working. I didn't get any redness just felt a tingle. Aren't retinoids supposed to sting a little if they're strong? I can't say I pay close enough attention to see a difference. Then again, I've tried other retinoids and don't see a difference with them either, so I might just not have an eye for gradual improvement. Some other Retinoid products didn't have the slightest sting, which made me feel like they just don't have any oomph. But I could be wrong. I also got the trial size as a gift with purchase so I didn't use it for long. Because I got the trial tube, I can't speak to the complaint I've seen about that and wasted product.Bea

After exfoliating in the shower and application, the product stings my skin and it has a burning sensation that has lingered for several minutes. My face is quite red from it – probably from the Retinol and possibly from applying it ontop of my serum with hyaluronic acid (my mistake). All the previous times I've applied it, there is a slight tingling where you massage the product into the skin. Not unpleasant but on sensitive skin it may be irritating and may not be suitable to apply every day. Press down on the top to squeeze out the product – a full push down dispenses just a touch too much product for my face – but I would probably use this amount on an extra dry day. The product comes out the colour between pale yellow to pale seafoam green. There is only a slight scent – not overpowering but not fragrance-free and I quite enjoy it. Bonus: you can unscrew the lid to scoop out the product at the end of use. I know it's supposed to be a 2-in-1 serum with cream but it's consistency and the feel on my skin makes me want to either use a serum first and/or apply a moisturizer after. I've been applying a serum before and it seems to be the best route for me. It's also winter so my skin is naturally dryer than normal so I would be happy to use this product without an additional serum or moisturizer in the hot summer. It's got a thick consistency but is not greasy at all. It soaks into the skin quickly and doesn't leave any kind of residue. Sometimes when I use a serum and moisturizer, there's an odd reaction where it pills or balls up, like dead skin – this does not do that. I've been using it for over 1 month now and I didn't have any notable wrinkles to begin with, but I haven't gotten any new ones…so I am happy with that! (TopBox gives sufficient time for people to actually test the product and use them to see if there are any visible results) #gotitfree #itcosmetics #helloresults #goodbyewrinkles #retinol #serum #facecream #skincare #wrinklecream #freeproduct8klo8

My skin used to be much more acne prone than it is now but even in my late 30's, I still experience blackheads and breakouts. Ugh! I also have combination skin – oily in some areas, dry in others – so finding that perfect product that doesn't leave my skin looking shiny or flaky can be tricky. The Vichy Laboratories Normaderm PhytoAction Acne Control Daily Moisturizer is a lightweight formula that doesn't leave my skin feeling heavy or coated. I have been using this for around a month and have noticed some results. Granted, my skin isn't in really bad shape like it used to be but I do have some blemishes and also some minor blackheads around my nose area. When used in combination with the Vichy Laboratories Normaderm PhytoAction Acne Control Daily Deep Cleansing Gel, my problem areas have pretty much vanished. No more blemishes, no more blackheads (which is HUGE), and my pores appear to be considerably smaller. I was getting frustrated at first because I didn't see results for awhile. So, keep trying! The moisturizer is easy to dispense and goes on smoothly. A little really goes a long way. My skin is left feeling soft, silky, and smooth, NOT greasy. Overall, I was quite impressed with this product and would highly recommend it to anyone that is dealing with pesky acne breakouts and blackheads!sunnyinNC

I do not have an acne problem now but I do have this product just in case they decide to be back 😁 I was using it before so I decided to put a review. Suitable for adult acne. Without fragrances, oil, parabens and alkohol. It's more like a gel with some scent. If you have combo acne prone skin this is definitely for you. Does not cause breakouts. Give it at least week to see the results. It's really working. Not drying the skin as alotta anti acne product does. Moisturize skin well without being oily. Can be use under makeup too.agnieszka.r

I had been looking for a good moisturizer for oily skin that I could put on and not realize it's there. Every other "light weight" moisturizer felt good when I first put it on and then an hour or so later, my face felt like an oil slick covered with velvet. But this moisturizer is nothing like that! A little goes a long way, it absorbs instantly and is incredibly light weight. This moisturizer does not feel greasy at all and I actually forget I put it on. I can already see improvements from the moisturizer which was a nice surprise. I only use it every other day so far and at this point, I don't see the need to apply it every single day. All in all, I'm very happy with this purchase and recommend it to anyone with true oily skin that wants a lightweight moisturizer.Courtney

LOVE THIS FOR MY FACE! Cant leave my house without it, if im not wearing it ill feel different, i stay moisturized all day with it till its time to wash my face again i would mever change it for the world, for users, i think you should pick this up when your ponds runs out because ponds feels like a watered-down more harsh face lotion than this one, also adds alot of hydration and glow to your face throughout the day non-stop! For makeup i mask, or just wash my face, then apply this lotion then 10-15 minutes later i add primer to my face and begin my makeup, i promise it makes you feel more confident in your skin after a week of daily use !rosie😁.r

I’m usually picky about moisturizers since it’s taken a while to find one that makes my skin feel great and doesn’t cause any sort of irritation. This has made my skin feel so much softer and has helped my make up stay in place, even in the summer! It smells great too, I apply this morning and night after my skincare routine. Definitely would recommend, it’s affordable and works wonders.emeraude.b

I cant comment on this item because I have not tried it I just received it today so after a couple of days of trying it I will let you know if it was worth the while. I have tried it and it leave s good feeling on the facenilsa060

I was a bit skeptical about this because I’ve tried sooooo much skin care and nothing has made a difference in my hormonal acne and red spots I get after breakouts. It also has niacinamide which usually breaks me out but my friend gave me a gift card and I wanted to try something with retinol as I’ve only tried prescription retinoid (adaplene) which I didn’t have any success with. I have only been using for a few weeks but I have noticed that my breakouts go away incredibly fast if I do get any (which I have been getting less of) and that my red scars have improved so much. I did have quite a feel pimples come up when I didn’t use it for two nights, don’t know if it has to do with that but definitely give this a go for normal acne/scaring obviously everyone’s skins different but I was pleasantly surprised!!Imi555

Love this new blemish calming treatment. Im 48 with v sensitive yet dry skin, prone to breakouts. This formula works well to combat both issues. Most blemish clearing serums simply dry my skin out, causing extra sensitivity, not so with this new serum from pericone. My skin feels well hydrated and calm , any pesky breakouts seem to clear up fast. My new must have product!!Nuala

This is one of the best serums I have ever tried! I used it together with the Gentle Exfoliating Toner for a month and saw amazing results. Definitely recommend a try!Daisy

This is the Skinceuticals 0.3% cream with retinol, retails for around $70.00. The packaging they use is excellent because it doesn’t allow for the ingredients to break down. This is a fairly low grade formula that should work well with people who are beginning to use retinoids. I have sensitive, acne prone skin and I continued using this until the tube ran out. My skin felt more dry the entire time, I was hoping I would adjust but the dryness never went away. I really didn’t notice any of the advantages from using this. I’ve tried other brands with retinol and it wasn’t as drying on me. Might just be the mix they usejolie.d

I’ve used tretinoin cream in the past, and that is the most potent prescription retinol. I decided to try this since it has been years since I used tretinoin. I started off by using moisturizer first, waiting 30 minutes then apply the skinceuticals and moisturizer after. I had zero redness, dryness. After 2 weeks I bumped it up to 5 nights a week and only moisturizer after , still zero redness or dryness. My skin looked smoother, and the few spots of hormonal acne I get on my chin monthly, had lessend. Other than that, I didn’t see any major changes to my skin. I think it’s a great starter retinol for someone who has never tried any form before. But, for me, I switched to the highest percentage Skinceuticals makes, and that really did everything it claimed.Jessica

I have used a whole regimen of skinceuticals products. It’s stopped my skin from breaking out which was a big accomplishment for me! I have now tried the retinol 3.0 from skinceuticals and this was a big game changer. It really brightened up my skin. Also my skin feels kind of soft in the morning after applying this in the evening. Pictures are Before using any skinceuticals product and after using all of the products with the retinol for some weeks. It is expensive I must say but a little goes a long way with all these products and it is so worth it!marie.d

I’m a little late to the face care game, but better late than never! I’ve started a routine morning and night, and my skin feels amazing! I saw a lot of great TikTok reviews for LilyAna products, and I’m so glad I did. I currently use the vitamin C syrum, the retinol cream and the eye cream. They have been great additions to my routine. Miracles don’t happen over night, but my skin has definitely improved since using them for the first time. The customer service has been outstanding – you just don’t get great CS like they provide anymore! Overall, an A+++++ overall experience!Jenna H.

I have purchased several times from Amazon. After using it a few times I really started noticing results!! Several people close to me commented on how good my skin looked because my wrinkles and texture were disappearing or softening. The best aspects of this product are: 1. Its a really nice, thick cream with a fresh, non-overpowering scent that quickly dissipates, that’s not greasy and sinks into your skin very quickly. Because of this, I think all skin types could benefit from using the product, with different skin types applying varying amounts. 2. I am sensitive to many products that contain Retinol. I usually start by having reactive skin that progresses to open sores and burns, if I continue to use the retinol product, no matter how slow I try to acclimate my skin., use sandwich technique, etc. BUT, is the first product that contains Retinol that I NEVER had ANY negative results. No reactive skin, sores or burns!! 3. It’s looks GREAT under foundation. So much so that my Sister said my skin and foundation looked flawless, without any filters, after working 8+ hours. 4. The pump dispenser is AWESOME! I HATE using any product that requires you to retrieve the product out of a jar and potentially contaminate all of it. 5. Another positive experience was with the packaging. When I finished my first bottle I opened it up to see how much product was left and would have gone to waste if I threw the bottle away when it stopped pumping any product. I was SHOCKED that there wasn’t any moisturizer left in the bottom of the bottle. 6. Amazon offers $2 and up discounts on a regular basis, even though this product is inexpensive compared to other, much more expensive moisturizers that don’t provide significant results. So, I wracked my brain trying to find some negatives about this moisturizer, and I finally came up with one. I went to Amazon’s website to order another and I got a message stating they were out of stock and didn’t know when/if they would be getting any more. Then I tried to find Lilyana’s website and saw that they only sell through Amazon. I guess the word is out about what an awesome product it is. Despite not being able to get it right now, I still gave it 5 stars.patricia.s

Rich retinol moisturizer with really great ingredients such as jojoba oil, shea butter and hyaluronic acid. My skin stays hydrated and looks really fresh in the morning (I apply before bedtime). The texture is creamy, non greasy and blends really well. I love that it doesn't have any fragrance or phthalates or dyes. Wish it were richer in terms of hydration. But it works nicely for my age right now. So far I love it and recommend it!tanmayee.p

This a very good retinol serum. It has 2% retinol, which makes this serum a potent anti-aging product. This serum targets multiple signs of aging, which makes it a single product that will combat all signs of aging. Retinol can be very drying and irritating, but it is suspended in a facial oil in this serum. The facial oil counteracts the drying side effect of this serum, while also adding extra hydration to my dry skin. Although the oil does significantly lessen the side effects of retinol, I recommend applying a small amount of serum at first and increasing the amount as your skin’s tolerance increases. It is imperative to apply SPF every day when using retinol. This product has improved all signs of aging in my skin, so I am very pleased with the results. It is a very affordable product, which makes this a must have skincare product! I have used $200 CAD retinol serums that are not as effective and gentle as this serum. I recommend this product!stephanie.w

The time to replace my skincare finally came and I decided to give retinol a go. My skin is super sensitive, and often times dry, so I knew I had to be picky with what I ordered. After some research, I decided the granactive retinoid was a safe place to start. Since I'm new to retinoids, I've been applying a pea sized amount three days a week. I've been doing this for the last two weeks and the results have been shocking. My skin looks glowy, any redness or hormonal acne has gone down significantly, and the texture irregularities have smoothed over a lot faster than I thought they would! I know a lot of people say full results are seen in about three months. . so either my skin was starving for this formula or this is just downright the holy grail. It's unscented but it definitely has somewhat of an earthy smell. Not necessarily bad or irritating, but it's there. It's extremely gentle – I'm thinking of upping the dosage in the upcoming weeks – and lightweight. I love how effortlessly it melts into the skin. If this is just the beginning, I can't wait for the next months. Hopefully it'll help with hyperpigmentation. I'm currently pairing it with the hyaluronic acid serum and I've no complaints. This retinoid is great for those looking into implementing retinol into their skincare routine.Li

I'm older than most of you ( 75). I have some deep wrinkle areas this is not made to fix. But I got this because – those areas which years ago had acne have rougher areas, and some areas of skin are bumpy and I have both whiteheads and black heads. I suspect the problem is both the slowing of skin growth and the fact that some pores were damaged a long time back. What this does seem to do is to gently encourage a sort of natural exfoliation and regrowth of the skin. Fewer white heads or congested looking areas. Many years ago I used stronger stuff — but I had oily skin – and think it is better to be consistent with lighter products. Respect that the skin's job is to protect you, so treat it gently. No abrasives which cut the skin, no strong peels. After cleansing at night ( with a different company's oil based cleanser I've used for several years), rinse well, and the wipe on the O"s Glycolic Acid Toner. Let skin dry, and apply this. Usually I apply a light moisturizer. ( I love rose oil for dry skin, but even that feels too heavy sometimes). I haven;t settled on a favorite. To me this does exactly what it should do: as a part of a regular routine it helps your skin get better. Not over night or in 2 weeks but little by little. As you get older, on annoying thing is that it takes everything in your body, including the derma, longer to repair damage. [ Which is why you should always wear sun protection, long sleeves and a hat! } I am finding that this has helped eliminate some little marks on my face from pimples or other irritations, ( I wonder if it would work on hands damaged from a lifetime of sun exposure?) I do share with others a question about shelf life: Does this absolutely need to be stored in a refrigerator, temperature, 39-40 degrees F, or is there an acceptable room temperature range where it remains stable? Is there an expiration time limit for unopened emulsion? Expiration dates do not necessarily reflect the actual viability of medications — Many have a much longer shelf life than the official times, others really aren't fit to use. Certain items – oils, e.g, can go rancid in which case they can be damaging. High heats and UV light are a plague for most anything that is reactive. But nothing is good today and utterly useless tomorrow. So I do wish the O staff would give us some of their testing results (I'm sure they have them) and some idea of how the potency changes. Is this a half life sort of measurement, where maybe the emulsion has lost 1/2or 3/4 of its potency by the 3 month mark? Now if The O would please start making makeup again. The srum one worke beautifully under sunscreen, making skin just look better, not made up.Yodasmom

I am coming back to this product after trying other wrinkle creams in the last couple of years. I began getting facials at a medspa on a monthly basis. They tout the line of products they exclusively use at their facility, so I figured I would give them a try. Their line gave positive results, but they are so pricey even with their member discount. I found that the results I got with Roc we're the same, if not better, and at a much more reasonable price! So I'm back to Roc for the proven results I know I get, and with more $ in my pocketbook.JP

I discovered the Roc line about seven or eight months ago. For me, the products I am using have really improved my facial skin. I find my pores are smaller and my wrinkles are less defined. I have one wrinkle beside my eye that I have been watching and it is clearly less noticeable. I don't notice a smell with this product. I use several other products in this line, so I am unable to say for sure that this product is the ultimate. Rather, I can say that the products in this line all used in conjunction have had an amazing effect on my facial skin.tran.t

I absolutely love this product!!! I've invested money with other brands, they cost more and didnt see any results. After just a few days I noticed a difference. I rushed back Walmart and purchased two more bottles. I am a smoker of over 40 years, so lines on my lips are terribly deep. I'm now on my second bottle and wanting to purchase more so I never run out. All of the high end and celebrity endorsements for products that show no results when used as directed. I love this product so much, I have shared pics with my sister and she is now a buyer of your deep wrinkle repair serum. God bless your company and employees up and down the line for providing an excellent product. Sincerely, A true believer and and promoter of your product and company as well!!!Kathy Peters

I received this face cream complimentary from #TopBox in exchange for my honest review. I was so happy to receive this product and read that it is fragrance free; which is very important for my sensitive acne prone skin. I received this product when we were having very cold wintery weather here in Toronto Ontario so I was able to put the moisture affect to use. My skin has felt so well hydrated and any dry spots I had were gone after the first use! With continued use every morning, my skin is more glowy and smooth. I haven’t noticed much help in my fine lines but it helps diminish them due to hydration alone. I feel the collagen does it’s work in this product! I didn’t give this cream a 5 star just because I find it a bit heavy for my skin; it’s almost like a creamy-salve type consistency. You don’t need much product to coat your whole face and to feel the instant moisture. I do also prefer a pump for sanitary reasons, but the packaging is pretty in the glass jar, and can be reused for other things in the future. Overall a really great cream which I would recommend to anyone with dryer/aging skin types as well as people who are issuing harsh ingredients like retinols, heavy acne treatments etc. This creates a really nice moisturizing barrier on your skin without breaking you out or causing reactions! Thank you TopBox L’Oréal for sending me this product, it definitely has a place in my skin care routine.lia.d

This moisturizer is fantastic! I recently started a new topical acne medication that was drying my skin out to the point that my normal, lightweight, every day moisturizer just was not curing it. Enter Collagen Moisture Filler! This has a rich, thick, creamy consistency and a little goes a long way. Extrenely moisturizing, can feel and see the difference immediately. I like the packaging as well, it is easy to get the product out and has a lovely blue top. Has a faint, clean sort of hand cream smell, not unpleasant or overpowering. I do wish the cream absorbed/ dried a little quicker, but considering the rich quality of it, it is to be expected. I've been using this a couple weeks now and feel that my skin is slightly plumper and definitely more hydrated. I use twice a day, morning and night, and have not experienced any more breakouts than I normally have anyway. I recommend this to anyone looking for a quality cream that won't break the bank. I purchased a 1.7 oz container at my local grocery store for $17, and judging by how much I have used so far, I think it will last a good 6 weeks at least.cassandra .t

I started getting serious about my skincare when I turned 40. I used another popular brand (starts with a M and ends with a d) for a decade. I was never really happy with the results. I took a chance on trying out RoC products, once I turned 51, and I am so happy I did! I LOVE this night cream! Smells so good, doesn't make me break out, hydrates my skin, and improves my skin tone. I use the cleanser, serum, eye cream, and this cream at night. VERY happy with the results!Stacee

The package says this will remove fine lines in 2 weeks with instructions to use am and pm daily. I don’t believe this amount of usage is hydrating. I’ve been using retinol for a year now and this roc formula left my skin dry irritated and rough. Not good for retinol beginners. I would say use sparingly and maybe once or twice a week before bed. The instructions on the bottle were not good for my skin at all.asha.s

I'm 61 yrs young and started noticing my chest and hands were starting to look wrinkled and crepey. I've been diligent in my face care, but negligent with the rest of my body. I didn't want to use my expensive stuff on the aforementioned body parts, so I bought this cream to try out. It worked better than I expected! My chest discoloration, crepiness, and wrinkles are almost gone. My hands look younger and plump. It's not going to be instantaneous, took me around 9 mos to see a significant change. I probably should start saving money and use this cream on my face too instead of the high end stuff lol!Violetsrblu

I'm only one week in on the DRMTLGY regiment and I'm already seeing results. I never had much of a skincare routine, just a cleanser and a user of benzoyl peroxide cream to help deal with breakouts. But now that I'm 40, I'm realizing that my minimal routine is problematic. After seeing ads for DRMTLGY and reading reviews, I started getting really interested. I went ALL IN after reading about their 60 day guarantee. I bought the C E Serum, the Needless Serum, the Retinol, the tinted moisturizer, and the night time peptide cream. The combination of products has been amazing. My need for the benzoyl peroxide has ceased… no breakouts. The texture of my skin is so smooth, the discoloration is fading, my pores are smaller, and my big forehead wrinkle between my brows is not as deep. I cannot wait to see what the results are after long-term usage. For the night time cream, I'm really happy with how a little dab will go so far! It's super hydrating. As with all the products I've used in this line, there is little to no fragrance either which is amazing. I would definitely recommend this product as well as the other's I've tried.Jennifer

I have been using Needle-less serum for 2 years. I do love how it makes my skin feel, however I do not use it 2x a day so I have not really noticed my fine lines getting any smoother. I have researched and learned that if you use a vitamin C, you should not use this serum, as it has peptides in it. I use vitamin c in the morning so skip the Needle-less serum in the pm. I also use DRMTLGY sunscreens and love them so much. The tinted ones are my favorite! I am now going to try their peptide night cream after seeing many positive reviews.Lisa

This is such a perfect moisturizer. It's versatile and can br used at night or during the day, it can be layered on itself for added hydration when you need it, and it's so gentle and plays nicely with other products. I use it at night but I may use it during the day in winter. It's somehow light enough to absorb completely but makes my skin feel completely hydrating and not wanting for more. I have oily aging skin and this is perfect for me! Definitely repurchasing and will continue to try more products because they've all been amazing so far and great price points.C.

I like the thick and smooth application of Crepey. I have been searching for years to find an alternative to Neutrogena. One small drawback is the lack of SPF skin protection. I just add another pump of SPF …still working on finding one that is perfect that doesn't get discontinued!!iHerb Customer

This skin repair product is wonderful. I mainly use it on my neck. It firms the area and remains that way all day long. I hope you will continue to carry this product, it is wonderful. I am 60 years old and my neck looks like a teenager!!!!!! Smooth and firm, not wrinkles.Lu

Inexpensive, large amount of packaging, enough for a long time, the dispenser is handy, works fine. I apply it after the serum. The cream is oily and thick (not light as some reviews say), but I like to apply it to my face at night. Sometimes I dab it in the morning. It feels like it moisturizes the skin perfectly, while absorbing quickly. The composition is good. It is convenient to massage the face with it. I recommend it!iHerb Customer

Excellent eye cream, it plumps and smoothes the lines of my undereye area. I apply generously 10-15mins before makeup, and let it absorbe. It makes it a visible difference almost immediately and seems to help with the skin appearance in the mid-long term. It contains some retinol (not sure how much), but it is gentle enough for the delicate skin around the eyes. I find that if I apply it on the eyelid too close to the lashline, it eventually goes into the eyes (and it stings!), so I keep a safe distance.manuela.g

I've just received the cream, and I applied it in the morning after exfoliating my face and putting on a water-based toner. Pros: -The cream feels pretty lightweight on the skin, seems that it can be suitable for oily skin -Usually it is recommended that Retinol should not be used in the day, but with an SPF30, it seems that this can be used in daytime as well. -Fragrance is not too strong, and smells rather refreshing Cons: -There isn't any information on how strong the % of Retinol is in the formula, but I'm guessing that the % is quite low, as it did not mention Retinol at all other than the product name. -If you want to put other skincare products or makeup over this cream, you have to do it immediately after you apply this cream, or not there will be bits all over your face. I'm pretty sure that this is due to the film that the product forms on your face after it settled to protect the moisture in your skin or to protect your skin from the UV light, coz I find that many other sunscreen also has this problem. -People with sensitive skin should still try a bit on a small part of your skin (perhaps not your face) first before you try out this product. -People who dislike fragrance could find having a fragrance a con -I didn't put this product too near my eyes, so I don't find the product sting. Since it's not an eyecream and has SPF in it, I recommend you not to put it to near your eyes. PS This is a first impression review, so I'm not sure about the anti-wrinkle effects yet.iHerb Customer

I do not usually leave reviews but I hope this can help someone. I am 33 years old and have been using this product for about 2 years (along with the night cream) and have seen wonders. I broke out super bad 2 years ago (first time this happened but I think it was my makeup products) and tried several products but nothing seemed to work. I purchased an acne product, which seemed to work but was leaving my face super dried. After researching and in addition to my acne products, I decided to purchase the ROC day cream, ROC night cream, ROC eye cream and a Vitamin C Serum and all I receive are compliments of my skin. I have not changed my skin regime since. This moistures my skin very well, leaves it soft and is also delaying any visible signs of aging. BUT, you must be consistent. I have not missed a day/night routine and I truly believe this is what has helped. You cannot test it for a week and expect immediate results. It took about 3 months for my face to clear up and finally glow again but I am so so so glad I did not stop. These creams last me a few months so it's a great price for a great product. I highly recommend this.Tatiana

've always loved Algenist but this moisturizer is absolutely amazing! It melts into my skin, drinks it up like water! So silky smooth and after 4 days of using it I can't believe the results, my skin is so hydrated and smooth less noticeable fine lines and just a beautiful glow. 💕💕kareen.s

It’s a lightweight formula, whipped texture. Goes in smooth and feels great. My skin stays moisturized all day without feeling gross and oily. I recommend this product to anyone who has sensitive skin like me to normal or dry skin types. I hope you are as pleased as I am.SonisJ

I bought this when it was on the weekly wow and I'm so happy I tried it. I have now repurchased at full price. This is the best face cream I have ever used! I have extremely sensitive dry skin and I develop regular dry patches I like very heavy moisturizers. This product seems to transform magically on your skin it feels light and spreads really easily but then you're skin feels so dewy and rich like you put a heavy cream on in a good way. I noticed instant improvement on the fine lines on my neck and am now addicted to this stuff! I highly recommend. My partner who has normal skin and usually needs their own lightweight moisturizer also loves and now is using this as their daily face cream as well!esila

I wanted to add the PM Therapy lotion to my skin routine after having amazing results from other Elta MD products, like the daily cleanser, AM Therapy and sunscreens. However, after using this product for just a few days, the PM Therapy lotion gave me gradual irritation until it became a full blown rash that resulted in swollen, itchy red skin around my eyes, mouth and neck. Even just a pea-size amount, applied mindfully away from those sensitive areas still caused me to have a horrible allergic reaction. I do have sensitive acne prone skin, but I have never had an allergic reaction like this to any product ever. My entire face is unbearably itchy, especially under my eyes, and I have patches of skin that feel completely raw and almost chemical burned, from very minimal use.. I am so disappointed because I wanted to love this product. I wish I had read the negative reviews before purchasing because they are consistent with my own experience. I am giving this product 2 stars because Elta is really an amazing line and the other products have saved my skin when I felt hopeless due to acne. BUT, stick with the other products in this line, use the AM Therapy, even at night. It is much more gentle and effective.Hannahxo

I have been a loyal user of the UV Daily Tinted Broad-Spectrum SPF 40 and the AM Therapy Facial Moisturizer for many years. I was using the AM Moisturizer at night out of laziness of not wanting to buy to different moisturizers for the time of day. I always mix my moisturizer with my tretinoin at night. It worked just fine for many years. I decided to try using the PM Moisturizer for my nighttime routine. It's been about 6 weeks and I am done. I am breaking out like I haven't in a long time. I can't stand it. For reference, I have oily, acne prone skin. Never severe or cystic acne, though. I have kept my skin decently balanced with the regimen I've been on and my acne has been limited to a pimple here and there but nothing more. Since starting the PM Moisturizer, I have break outs all over my face. I'm so upset.Jessica
