Shandi Darden's Retinol Reform
Hiya,
I’m continuing my reviews of the random products that were in that Sephora Favorites box I got a while back .
This is the Retinol Reform from Shandi Darden.
It comes in this light tan bottle, which looks like a mini size of a full-size product. I feel like I have tried this brand before but I’m not sure what it was. I think a toner. This one is a night cream.
I use 2 pumps of it and warm it up in my hands. It smells like a sort of sweet plant but I’m not sure what kind. I pat it on my face and let it absorb in. I did also try just rubbing it in cause I know some products work differently depending on how you apply it. After about 20 mins it does soak all the way in and my face starts feeling dried out. That’s if I use it and it alone. So I have been either mixing it with my normal Moisturizer or applying it afterward. It didn’t rebel with anything I used with it which was a good thing. However, this one is just ok and I won’t be buying it again cause I don’t like how it feels on my skin by itself. Also, I didn’t notice a difference after using it for a couple of weeks.
This one comes in 2 sizes a 0.3oz for $30 and a 1oz for $88.
