CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum For Post Acne Marks, Formulated With Licorice Root Extract & Niacinamide, Brightening Serum & Pore Minimizer For Face, Post Acne Skin Barrier Repair, Non-Comedogenic

I love this product! It is gentle enough so I am not experiencing redness, but I definitely know it is doing its job. After just over a week of use my skin is clearer, brown spots are lighter and my pores are smaller. It is good skin care at an affordable price. I'm very happy with this purchase.

I have gone through an entire bottle and I have found that my discoloration and fine lines have improved greatly. I really have found that this product has made a big difference in my skin. The overall texture, and brightness has improved so much. My lines have blurred if not disappeared. I was totally impressed with this and will surely be using this forever. I think it’s the combination of the peptides, retinol, and licorice root that everyone should be using on their skin.

I am a 34 year old man who developed pretty bad acne because of some medication I was taking, along with poor health decisions. This resulted in bad acne, scarring, and marks on my face. I found this product here, trusted in the reviews, and ordered several bottles. Within 3 days I started to notice an immediate difference. Now, 5 months later of NIGHTLY APPLICATION, my face is 90% better, I would say. This product is incredible and works much better than I expected. I still apply this nightly, along with face lotion on top, to keep treating some remaining scars (they are getting better). Just keep this product away from your eye area because it will dry out the sensitive skin. Personally, I paired this with a collagen peptide supplement and my skin is so much better. Give this product a shot!

If your skin is too sensitive for retinol you should try this. Apparently jumping right in using a retinol cream every night was a bad idea. My skin rebelled and I screwed up the moisture barrier. So I put that cream aside, rebalanced my skin by being extra gentle and tried this serum. 1 my skin is sensitive, 2 my skin is normally on the drier side. 3 I occasionally get pimples along my jaw line during my period. When I was half way through this bottle I noticed my pores looked more clear and less clogged which gave them the appearance of being smaller, which they don't get smaller just less noticable. I suffer from massively clogged pores specifically on my nose. They always looked dirty. They were less so now. I didn't experience any dryness or irritation. If you do I suggest using a hyaluronic acid serum before this one and giving it time to soak in. I've done that here and there on drier skin days. By the end of the bottle I noticed some unevenness in skin texture was smoothing out and darker scars from acne were ever so slightly lightening up. I have a bad habit of not giving products enough time to work and moving on bc I want instant results, yeah not smart. Because this is a much gentler form of retinol it will take longer to see full results but I've already started using my second bottle and that wonderful horizontal worry line on my forehead is ever so slowly becoming less noticable. Bc of how sensitive my skin is I was afraid I would never be able to use a retinol product bc I've tried many with disastrous results even when I used them once or twice a week. CeraVe knows how to take care of skin, they know how to create products that work effectively for all skin types without damaging your skin in the process. You just need to figure out what YOUR skin needs and check out their line of products. I didn't notice any particular scent but as far as I know they do not add fragrance to any of their products which I appreciate bc my skin does not like fragrance even if my nose does. When I run out of this product I will be repurchasing and I use this in conjunction with the CeraVe Skin Renewing Night cream or the original CeraVe moisturizing cream at night if my skin is particularly dry. My skin, at 33 looks better now than 5 years ago bc I'm making an effort to take care of it. I wish I had back as a teenager but maybe anybody reading this will think about taking care of it better bc it's never too late to start. Last thing, I always wear a sunscreen during the day. I'm not a foundation fan but I love the CeraVe tinted sunscreen. It offers the right tint to even out my complexion while still protecting. It's on the moisturizing side so give it a few minutes to soak in or use a little setting powder and your good to go. Also, the tinted sunscreen is not great for darker skin people, I'm pretty pale, so if CeraVe could expand that line to include a larger range of skin tones that would be so helpful.

I had horrible cystic acne in my early teens that left a lot of scarring and hyperpigmentation on my face; mostly my cheeks, but small dots here and there on my temples too. I use prescription clindamycin for the occasional cystic acne now, but of course that doesn't do anything for scarring so I decided to branch out. I'm scared of needles so microneedling, while arguably not THAT scary, wasn't an option both because of my fear and because of the price... Hence, this product. I chose this one because it had a lot of reviews honestly, I am definitely a victim of the "oh, this product has close to five stars and blah blah so many reviews, that must mean it'll work on me!" mentality sometimes, I will admit, so I was a bit skeptical because I've taken this approach before with some products in the past and it didn't go well. THIS is the best choice I've ever made for a skincare product. While the scarring on my right cheek is still there, it is very minimal now and way less noticeable. As for my left cheek, it's literally almost completely gone. It's crazy. I've only been using this for like maybe 2 months, and just like that, bad acne scarring is gone. I didn't even know that was possible. That being said, just because this worked super well for me doesn't necessarily mean it'll work super well for you, everyone's skin is different! I will also add that the serum itself works very well on my oily skin. It's not drying, sticky, and it seems to absorb into my skin well, which is an issue I have with other products. A few minutes after applying it, I don't feel it whatsoever, both in feeling and appearance. You don't need very much of it either, which is pretty common in retinol, to my knowledge, but I really like that I can use just a teeny tiny bit every so often and still have results. Definitely worth a try if you're considering it for acne scar reduction.

This stuff is amazing. You cant ask for a better price with an effective formula. I am on my second bottle and I hardly ever finish a whole bottle of something. I have gotten botox in the past and I havent had botox in over 9 months thanks to this little bottle. Took care of some fine lines, improved texture and lightened sun spot and a scar. Formula isnt sticky and absorbs quickly. I wish I had taken before pictures to show how wonderful it works.

Highly recommend. I have atrophic scars on my nose from a bad case of poison ivy. I began applying this every evening and have noticed a difference. It's not drastic, but the scars don't look as pitted as they did when I first began using the product. As a bonus, I believe it has also helped my dark spots and given me an all over more glowing and even-toned complexion. Took a few days to notice any difference. I have sensitive skin and did have some peeling when applying twice a day...dropped down to just once per day and there are no side effects. At 42, I almost feel like I could go out foundationless. This product is amazing.

Doesn't work on my acne prone skin. I love this product & the ease of access to drugstore retinol but my skin won't just cooperate. It fades my acne marks but the same time it also clogged my pores, so it just creates this cycle.
