I dedicate today’s post to retinol because it has taken over my skin care routine recently. I’d love to tell you more about a face serum I bought lately (with the very ingredient) and why it proved to be a pleasant surprise.

If you fancy knowing more, stay with me and read on!

Why a retinol serum?

You’re probably wondering why on earth I decided on retinol if everyone says it’s designed for mature skin. It is true but you should know that our skin becomes mature before we turn 40! Plus it’s better to use retinol as a preventive product rather than a fix for what’s already “broken”. Instead of rejuvenating, we should focus on preventing age-related imperfections.

Beyond that, my skin was literally craving for a retinol treatment. Acne and dark spots were making it look dull and lifeless. I figured vitamin A would be the best ingredient for bringing my complexion back to life.

I went for: Nanoil Retinol Face Serum

I chose a retinol from Nanoil because it got very good reviews. I read tons of high opinions on many beauty blogs and forums so I decided to go for a trusted item. In most cases when I have a beauty product recommended by someone, it works out well for me.

As usual, I had to browse through the Internet, reading different reviews to check if it’s a really good choice.

FORMULA OF NANOIL RETINOL

At first I ran through the components and was pleasantly surprised to see a short and clear ingredient list. It doesn’t contain any weird-named substances. Unsurprisingly, the serum is based on retinol, but it’s also rich in a Boerhavia Diffusa Root Extract, which is a natural antioxidant. There’s nothing in the INCI that I could niggle about.

CONSISTENCY OF NANOIL RETINOL

When it comes to texture or aroma, the serum is really cool. It is very lightweight – because it’s based on water – so it doesn’t clog the pores, cause oiliness or congest the skin. The smell is mind-blowing, but I can’t show you that over the screen!

EFFECTS OF NANOIL RETINOL

You’ll agree with me for sure – the effect is what matters the most. It often happens that cosmetic companies promise miracle-working products that will turn us into gorgeous goddesses within seven days but then nothing comes of it, so we’re left angry about wasting the money.

When it comes to the Nanoil Retinol Face Serum, the makers deliver on each and every promise! It really works the way they say, which was the biggest and nicest surprise!

If you just remember to use the serum regularly before sleep, it will make your skin better after just one use, and after three or four weeks:

• it will restore skin’s smoothness, firmness and plumpness.
• it will brighten or totally remove pigmentation marks.
• it will even out the skin tone and bring healthy shine back.
• it will minimize fine lines, making the face look younger.
• it will help you get rid of acne and similar problems.

DO I RECOMMEND NANOIL RETINOL SERUM?

Of course, the answer is obvious. I heartily recommend Nanoil Retinol Face Serum because I can see it’s wonderful effects on my own skin. It works greatly and quickly just like the producer promises. Plus, it has a superb formula unlike many similar products. It is worth the price and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed if you get one or present it to your mom, sister or friend.

For all those who feel like giving it a go, here’s the best place to start: www.nanoil.co.uk

Till next time!
