Dr. Dennis Gross Retinol Review

 

Today is all about my favorite retinol. Dr. Dennis Gross has the best retinol. I ordered this during the pandemic and I’ve been obsessed ever since. I apply this product at night and wake up with a beautiful glow. Retinols “reduce fine lines and wrinkles by increasing the production of collagen. They also stimulate the production of new blood vessels in the skin, which improves skin color. Additional benefits include fading age spots and softening rough patches of skin.”

I use this 2-3x a week and my skin has never been better. If you are looking for a retinol to try… this is worth the cost. You also use the least bit of product so It lasts for a few months.

Below is some information from Sephora. This retinol is my fave . Let me know if you’ve tried this in the comments below!
