Tones and Tightens
I have found that my skin feels smoother, and the tone more even. On application it's very creamy and a rich consistency, a little goes a long way. Would definitely recommend, I will continue to use.

Not all that
Felt a little greasy when using after the serum. When I applied it in the morning, I found that I couldn't apply my foundation as it didn't sink in quick enough.

Instantaneous results
Lightly fragranced and lightweight. I saw a subtle improvement after the first application. My skin feel tighter and smooth with a healthy shine.

Retinol Cream Review
Sadly, I did not like the cream. The packaging is beautiful - really elegant and classy. There is very little scent to the product. The texture feels nice on my fingers, but when applied to my face it left a tacky feeling. It didn't seem to absorb very well, either.

Excellent product. Both were easy to apply and were absorbed into skin really quickly

Lovely textured cream.
The cream was a lovely texture. Not too thick or thin. Just right. There was a nice smell to it. It left my skin feeling really soft and moisturised.

Love it, splendid product!
I was initially concerned that this cream seemed quite heavy, but even though it felt rich going on, it absorbed beautifully. My skin has been softer since I have been using it, and my usual problems with dry winter skin have not been an issue at all! My skin can also be quite sensitive, but I had no reaction of any kind, and indeed it seemed like it had actually lessened the sensitivity of my skin. Occasionally I get minor hormonal breakouts, but this moisturiser has not exacerbated then at all, as moisturisers often do. I've been using it morning and night, which has been an excellent routine as I'm usually quite lazy about nighttime skincare, and the extra moment it takes is entirely worth it! Really a lovely product.

Good value for money, will last ages.
Packaging is good an solid and design and information is very good. The first use I used way to much cream and left my skin feeling "coated"... what ever amount you usually use, half it as this cream is very thick and spreads very well. Due to this reason the initial price tag makes it very good value for money as it will definitely last twice the amount of time as your usual moisturiser. The second time I applied it I only used the smallest amount and it spread evenly over my skin and soaked in really well.. it still left a feeling of having something on my face which I was a little unsure about but it didn't seem to clog pores or cause any breakouts. The smell is very delicate and hardly noticeable but to be honest you don't want a strong smelling moisturiser. I've already recommended this product and may pass the left overs on to my Mam to try.

Non-Irritating Retinol Cream
I have read up on retinol to be a must for anti-aging skincare. This retinol cream seeps into the skin easily and is lightweight leaving the skin smooth and soft. The cream has a low percentage of retinol, therefore less irritating and a good place to start for new retinol users. As a skincare enthusiast I would suggest reformulating without drying alcohol (Alcohol Denat) and fragrance and then this would be a great product.

Would recommend
I love this product. Feels soft and velvety on my skin. Non greasy. Not highly scented which is a plus for me. Feels luxurious. Been using for 2 weeks, not noticed a difference in wrinkles yet but will continue to use. Have high hopes for this product.

Absolutely amazing cream
This is my first experience with retinol products and I have to say that Institut od Esthederm does not disappoints! The lovely rich texture of the cream leaves my skin soft and smooth. Amazing product.

Wonderful face cream
A wonderful thick cream which felt luxurious and worked well when complemented with the serum. It has no harsh scent which I found to be a bonus. I used it every evening and in the morning my skin felt lovely and soft and smooth. I did not need to use much so a little does go a long way. The wrinkles around my eyes and lips which I have been concerned about for a while are now starting to diminish which is great. The packaging is also attractive and looks high end. Would definitely recommend this product!

Luxurious cream
What a gorgeous textured cream, it partners well with the retinol oil serum at night and works beautifully over my usual serum in the morning. It’s rich without being greasy and a pleasure to use. I will definitely look to purchase this in the future as it feels like a real luxury. Thank you for the opportunity to test this cream.

Amazing cream for day and night time
I was quite cautious trying a new cream as I'm always afraid that it will. Leave my skin too oily but this cream just felt so good on my skin and combining this with the oil at night is amazing. My skin feels plumped and with less fine lines. Love it.
