The Edyt Score
4.5 / 5.0
Targets
4.5/5
For dry lines that want retinol inside a cream. Skip the serum stick if this jar is the format.
Formula standards
4.5/5
A conditioned cream, not a gel. Start a few nights if retinol is new.
The verdict
A familiar retinol cream if dryness is the complaint. One jar is enough.
