Review: Best formula I’ve used - I was skeptical to try another serum. A friend of mine recommended this and her skin always looks so clear, healthy, soft and vibrant. I have been using it consistently for 2 weeks and 2 friends have mentioned how amazing my skin looks and a stranger told me she needed to know what I use. Highly recommend!!
Review: So many compliments! - Open Formula's Retinoid 5% Serum was a terrific find. I searched for a strong retinoid, and since their reviews were glowing I decided to jump in. Everyone has been noticing a change in my skin since a week after trying it! I saw less wrinkles, and my skin glows, but I thought it was just user bias lol. The retinoid doesn't irritate my skin, even though it's a stronger product than retinol, and its nice fragrance is so light it's hard to notice. I'm so delighted to find the whole package in Open Formula. This is definitely inexpensive for the value you get. Nice sized bottle, and it'll last a long time. Makes a great gift, too.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Potent retinoid at a good price - just avoid eyelids.
*by N***M on November 6, 2020*

So far so good - yes it is oil based, but don’t be afraid of oil on your skin. I have crazy dry skin - a few years ago I discovered oil was a wonderful antidote. We oil leather so why not our skin? I made the mistake of apply this to my eyelids which has then a bit red and irritated. Avoiding that going forward, but the rest of my face is tolerating this well and I have sensitive skin. I was pleased to see the eyelids were irritated because it helped verify it is a nice dose of retinoid. Great price point too so I’m going to stick with it.
